Boston and New York

In March I had the honor to be invited to an event in Boston. One of the publishers we work with had a conference for all their employees worldwide and I was one of the speakers. I didn’t have much time to wander around, but I did manage to shoot a few pictures from downtown … Continue reading »

Berlin

I went to Berlin with a couple of colleagues for a meeting in November. The meeting was on Monday morning and we flew in the day before. I arrived in Berlin a couple of hours before lunch. It was a bit cold, but it was sunny and very pleasant indeed. This first shot is The … Continue reading »

Istanbul

I’m embarrassed. I have not looked in on my blog in months and then I saw that the last post is from almost a year ago! There’s been a couple of things happening after that and this is my first attempt to get back in the saddle. Istanbul in September is beautiful and a great … Continue reading »

Another trip to China – april 2011

I’ve decided to do something a bit different this time. Former posts are more or less a chronological description of various trips and events. I shot more than 6000 pictures in China, and I believe the whole story is a bit too much – at least for this blog … This time I’ve picked some … Continue reading »

Harrogate

I had one day on the ground after the trip to Austin and Boston before I entered another aircraft – bound for Harrogate, UK this time. Harrogate is a little bit out of the way and you normally fly to Leeds or Manchester and go by train to get there. I went there to attend … Continue reading »

Boston

Coming to Boston directly from Austin was literally a chilling experience. I checked the weather the week before I left for the US and Boston showed up with temperatures from 10 to 15 degrees Celcius. When I got there though the temperature was more like 2 to 5 degrees, which was a real shock coming … Continue reading »

Weird Austin

I arrived in Austin 24 hours behind schedule due to cancellations and delays. I missed the opening reception for the conference and the few hours I had planned for some sightseeing. I still found some time to shoot a few pictures during my days in Austin. One of the first things I saw when I … Continue reading »

Amsterdam!

I was in Amsterdam last week attending the 12th European ICOLC conference (International Coalition of Library Consortia). This conference was particularly exciting for me because I was asked to give a speech on “Taiji as philosophy in negotiations”. If you’ve ever read this blog before you will know that I practice Taijiquan and that this is a … Continue reading »

Friends, fish and a flock of seagulls

I went on a fishing trip a couple of weeks ago with my friends Kjetil, Sture and Torvald. We met in Bergen and drove north for about an hour. After a ride on a ferry we ended up on the island of Fedje located on the west coast of Norway. If you travel due west … Continue reading »

Back to Il Convento

I went to Italy with my Taiji friends approximately one year ago. My impressions from that trip can be found in a blog post from October 2009. We had to come back – for so many reasons. It’s a beautiful place; the monastery is situated just outside the village of Trevi in the Umbria province, … Continue reading »
