BTW, my new look...

In time for my birthday, of course! Thanks, Gertie – my otherwise 280-kronor haircut (that's a whopping 2K pesos, would you believe?) was a birthday "service" :-)

I posted that and some pictures from this weekend at my photoblog (click here for the album). We currently have the run of Mats' and Margareta's countryside house for the whole week where we are – for better or worse – actually warming up to country living. Having to haul logs into the house first thing in the morning, using an old wood-powered stove and running out of hot water while you shower are just some of the exotic "charms" to be found here for us city folk! But of course, we have access to the modern oven and satellite TV as well. Hahaha!
