Mandopop: Esther Liu (劉品言)

Esther Liu (Liu Pinyan) from Taiwanese pop duo Sweety has 'resurfaced' (pun intended) after many years without anything happing, and now through her own record label and efforts. She is singing in french with a video that is suitably matching that with Esther dreamingly moving in water.

Trip to Norrland: Day 3 - Water, water, everywhere!

Todays theme was water. First we ate breakfast at Byske Havsbad, and then we visited Storforsen. Byske Havsbad is a splendid sandy beach north of Skellefteå. The weather was a bit to cold for bathing but we had a great time anyway. Storforsen ("Big Rapids") is one of Europes biggest rapids, and it is impossible to catch the massive power we felt close to it. It was like a mountainside continuously tumbling down. I really recommend this. After that we went to stay at my friend Maria's place in Kalix. This also means we reached our Northernmost point of this trip, after roughly 1200 km of road.
