Wow, time has flown so quickly. I feel so more strongly year by year.
It's been a year since the last time I wrote here, and has been already two years since our
beloved dog passed away. Has anything changed in my life in these past years, or not?
How are you all doing? I hope everything's been all right with you all.
I came back home from my Sweden trip about 10 days ago.
When I was a kid, I did never expect that I would go to Sweden this much in the future.
This trip was the sixth or seventh time for me to visit there. Some people say that Sweden
is not really an exciting country to live in. Well, probably yes if you compare Stockholm to
cities like New York, London, Paris & Tokyo. Stockholm(& also other cities in Sweden) have
their own beauties, appeals and atmospheres, I feel. I like the air of Sweden.
I'm planning to visit there next summer again. And after that, I'll officially try to begin my
preparations for moving there. Life has lots of hardships, worries, sufferings & so on,
but no one can never escape from them. I have lived peacefully with my family so far in my
life, and I guess I've been way too dependent on my family's kindness & love.
I don't think that moving out of this house and living separated from my family are called
'independent', but I sometimes get concerned about my future without my parents.
In the future, my parents will pass away & of course I will pass away, too.
I haven't really done 親孝行 to my parents yet, and just hope that moving abroad won't be
親不孝 to them. これについての答えはうまく出せませんが、頑張って自分なりに一生懸命
生きていきたいです。なんだか、久々の投稿が重めなトピックになってしまった。ただ、
ここ最近は人生の変わり目のような時期になってきているので、そんな事を考えずには
いられないのです。誰しもが通る道なのですよね。
締めは、今回のストックホルム滞在で撮った写真ということにします。
素敵なストックホルムの景色を一望できる有名な高台・Monteliusvägenより。
ちょうど紅葉真っ只中でした。
近所の林に行ったり・・
近所の海に行って鴨ちゃんと白鳥さんに餌あげたり・・
友人♪とファーマーズマーケットに行ったり・・
友人♪とTram Cafeに乗ってみたり・・
駅の写真を撮ってみたり・・
自炊してみたり・・(自家製Skagenröra)
(マンゴーパッションソルベとKvarg vaniljを一緒に食べるのがやめられない止まらない)
(砂糖不使用のチョコレートアイスをバニラと少し混ぜて食べると、これまた止まらない)
(スウェーデン秋の味覚という茸:Trattkantaller。ハヤシライスに。)
(Sushi bar Senseiで寿司ランチ。お元気なマスターのトークが面白い。)
(友人たちと遅いピザディナー。半分食べて残りは持ち帰り。
手で食べていたのは4人中私のみw スウェーデンで外食をすると全体的に味付けが
塩辛いので、高血圧にならないのだろうかと若干心配に思う。。)
恒例、趣味のセカンドハンドショップ巡り。そんなこんなで、今回の戦利品は
これらとカトラリーを幾つか(満足!)来年の夏に行けたら、蚤の市に行ってみたい。
