Holidays!

Yes you heard me right! I came back home to Oslo today by nighttrain from Bergen. Nothing to do with travelling in style but it has advantages: No limit on luggage/weight. So the semester in Bergen is finished and now I have some time to relax at home before the 26th of December. That´s when I am going to Paris and later from there, to Belgium. I´ll keep the worries for later and just try to enjoy the holiday season now. Hopefully I will have some more time/energy to update my blog...

Cold lovebirds

On my last day in Paris I was walking down the Champs-Élysées. Just a stonethrow away from de Arc de Triomphe there was this Asian couple standing in wedding-costumes. Looked like the guy had just popped the question (who would get married on the street? ). That day was cold and the poor to-be-wed´s were probably freezing. Anyway, I guess this happens quite often in Paris,the capital of LOVE. Not the most original stuff I´ve seen ;-)

Goldfrapp+Coldplay in Paris

The concert was in Bercy, Paris on the 29th of November. Goldfrapp warmed up for the British supergroup. The overall performance of both was great. With so many hits hidden up their sleeves, I don´t think a Coldplay-show can ever go wrong. Chris Martin was in his usual "jumpy" mood and seemed to be "humping" the piano on several occasions. Sweet! Coldplay has so far released three full albums and the lastest came this year, so the playlist was a seamless flow of hits from "Parachutes" to "X&Y". This concert was nothing but impressive and I understand why this group of four modest British lads probably make up the greatest pop/rock-band at the moment.
