I'm here on a one month grant from the Association of Swedish Illustrators and Designers, staying in the Swedish Institutes guesthouse in Kavala. A house built in Bauhaus style, with 70 cm thick outer walls(!).

Heavy with paper and material. Hard to know how much to bring. I probably brought too much.

KABAVA. Situated by the Aegean Sea, close to Turkey.

Taxidriver drove like a madman from the airport.

My first room. I arrived two days early so "my room" is still occupied. There's something wrong with the piping, there is a distinct smell of gasoline in the room :( Hope to be rid of this when I move rooms.

Church bells ring every morning at 7 am. No way you can sleep over them.

Emilianou street.

Lunch on the terrace. Need I say more?
I wish my neighborhood had a built in alarm clock. I'd get so much more done.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Good luck for this month's work :)
ReplyDeleteHej! Vad roligt att få vara med dig. Hoppas att allt blir bra och att du inte längtar hem till ett regnigt (skyfall) och blåsigt Sigtuna.
