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.

This evening surprised me with an unreal meeting. This evening surprised me with an unreal meeting. I never thought I'd see a lynx in the wild, let alone get so close. Unbelievable that I had my camera in the backseat. Wow. What a beautiful creature.

What an absolutely amazing summer we've had! It's What an absolutely amazing summer we've had! It's felt slow and free, and a lot of it is definitely due to our bikes 🚲✨ 

// This is a sponsored collab with @sportproffsen.se 

It's been lovely to just hop on them and head to the local burger shack, into town for a pub evening or to our friends for pizza and game nights.

We've also explored the surrounding area, and been out for a whole day on a 70k ride through farm fields, along rivers and in forests.

Summer spent on a bike is like being a kid again. I love the feeling of care free adventure and the ease of which we can turn into a small path to see what's there or stop at the side of the road whenever we see something pretty - or a booth to buy local honey!

Thank you @sportproffsen.se and @fitnordbikesandoutdoors ! 🙏🏽
