I just came back from Roskilde 5 AM this morning, and words cannot describe how exhausted I am. I'm having a bad cold (or, which I rather think, I'm suffering from the "roskilde sickness" as they call it) so I've lost my voice completely at the same time as it hurts nearly everywhere. Oh yeah, for those of you who don't know what Roskilde is, I can tell you that it is a one-week-long music festival located in Roskilde in Denmark. Each year over 100 000 people come together to get wasted and listen to music. So as you might think, I've had a really good time. haha.

I was actually going to leave today at 9 PM, but because of illness and tiredness, we decided to leave a bit earlier. This means that I missed Coldplay, but since I'm going to see them later this summer I don't really think much about it. I also missed about half of The Whitest Boy Alive (which was amazing btw), so that kinda sucks. Anyways - I'm really satisfied that I got to see The Mars Volta, Mew, Oasis, Röyksopp, Nick Cave, Pet Shop Boys, Shugo Tokumaru, Klover i kamp.. and the list goes on.

Oh yeah, I spent one week in Mallorca before I went to Roskilde, and I had a really good time there as well.

I'm going to Steigen tomorrow (near Lofoten in northern Norway) and I'm quite sure I will do lots of landscape work when I get there! I'm mainly going to spend the week there working however, since I owe some money for the festival ticket.. bah.
