Summer In Norway, The powerful Language of Elements. Part Two

As we went from one hotel to another everyday, we came across some very wonderful people. Our way of traveling, we luckily  meet  people of the country and we try to understand the "country" through them by taking our time to talk to them and listen very carefully what they have to say. By listening to them, we learned more about the country than "having our head into our guidebook"

that's our concept of traveling.

We were very Lucky to go outside the tourist main roads and hiked some trails, we only met Norwegians.

Summer In Norway,The powerful Language of Elements. Part I

Our journey started from Ålesund and lead us trough one of the most wonderful landscapes in this world. Through the land of light, to the great hilltop towers with its crown of snow, to the fords, Prairie, Lake, and city of Bergen and back to the fresh clean nature of the glacier.

Norway bewitched me!!!

Silence!!!

Have you ever heard the wonderful silence just before the dawn? Or the quiet and calm just as a storm ends?
I love the silence of the night, I love to be in silence, I love to be in calm space, I enjoy living my life that way, it is my nature, should I change it to please others? should I change to be accepted by others?
I am a peaceful lost soul in this world. :)
I work in a calm tiny space and every once in a while with Jazz music as a background noise to keep me compagny.

We have been facing a very bad heatwave in the country for the past week, this period of heat is another painful situation for my poor body. The weather is cooler today, hallelujah, we are alive...!
Just before the heatwave, I made these 3 pair of earrings and  custom necklaces to make in silver and black stone which I made during the heatwave.
I couldn't picture the earring because we were  living in dark home (we closed all the shutters to keep away from any source of heat) and since all my photo are taken is natural day light it was hard to take photos.
Finally, yesterday my hubby braved the heat to take a pictures of my jewelry.
I make silver jewelry on a very rare occasion because  silver is not my "cup of tea" LoL. I don't like the way they oxydize when you leave them out.
Well, I did what my customers want and so far they are pleased with the result, so I am pleased as well.

My customer wanted this pair in silver.
