hello and welcome!

My name is Rania

I live in a small northern town of Sweden where I work as a freelancing photographer, visual communicator & photography educator. I strive to live slow, sustainably and intentionally and in this blog I will share my life from outdoor adventures and photography tips to traveling and foraging & using wild food.

May also contain traces of coffee and cats.

After a long, hard winter and spring, all I plan on doing is bike around enjoying nature. Just slow living and close by adventures 🚲 I've teamed up with @sportproffsen.se who's made sure me and my partner can enjoy this together, so you can expect a lot of bike adventures, photography and camping 👌🏽 I love biking SO much, and nothing makes me feel quite as free as when I'm gliding through a golden sunset with a camera slung over my shoulder.

Luckily not before I could get my camera + macro lens. What a cute fuzzy buzzy! As we work on making the garden better for biodiversity, I keep coming across species I've never seen before and it is such a joy ✨️ The day after heavy magazines from both @cameranaturamagasin & @fotografernasforbund were thrown down into the mailbox, and I'm glad the bee was no longer there! 📷 OM-3 + M.Zuiko 60mm F2.8 #svenskafotografer #biologiskmångfald #macrophotography #cameranatura #naturfotograferna
