I’m starting to realize what Mia meant when she said it is dangerous to live close to the city center – you buy a lot more than you would if it took you half an hours bus trip to get in to town.
But you get to see some lovely things as well.
Yesterday I found these for only 25 euros!
And a book with pictures of old embroideries (väggbonader). One verse went like this:
“Var fågeln lik min själ som på den minsta kvist sig svingar. Han känner hur den böjs, men sjunger likväl, han vet att han har vingar!”
“My soul be like the bird, who sits upon the smallest branch. He feels it bend but sings as well, for he knows that he has wings!”
(not as pretty when I translate it…)
And then I went for a makeup lesson.
