Street art

When we walked the streets of Paris we noted quite a few good pieces of so called street art.

Paris Half Marathon, Charlie Hebdo and some more Paris is a bit different today than it was last time we were there. After the attack on the staff of the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo people have put up posters, created memorials and done many other things to honour and remember the people who were murdered, promote tolerance and to condemn racism and xenophobia. We will return ... read more

Ake Och Emma

We are Emma Holmbro and Ake Dahllof. We live in Stockholm, Sweden. We have travelled more or less regularly since the mid 1990-ies and it seems like the more we travel the more difficult it is to decide where to go next. Not because we are running out of places to visit but because we find more places we want to go to faster than we manage to travel to them. Some of the things from our travel bucket list we have ticked off since we started this blog in 2006 are Angel Falls in Ven... full info

Congrats runners and art lovers!
Excellent that you were able to complete a half marathon in great weather in good time while chatting. I'm totally jealous of Ake's ultra-marathon breakfast--I'd be as big as a house (hopefully with street art on me) if I tried to eat all that in a day. While I can't match you there, I'm in syn with your love of street art and independent expression, and also with your opinion of the whole Charlie Hebo affair. Ironically, I just saw Selma last night, where people were willing to give their lives for their people's freedom. Thank goodness acts of terrorism and police brutality (my US) can backfire and spur support for freedom.
