My last blog post was 21 days ago… I took theese pictures 21 days ago but never posted them.

I am not sure where to start or end this post – one thing is sure. Its going to be a long one folks so grab something to eat or drink haha.

I started this blog four years ago. Before the blog, I was the most awkward insecure girl ever. I guess that’s the story of many bloggers. My confidence has always been an issue and still is. Four years ago I decided to start this blog, not to prove anything to the world, but to prove to myself that I was okay.

The blog was a hobby and if I could I would hide it from everybody I know.

As I started to get readers in the beginning I realized my love for everything pretty – not only clothes, jewelry and makeup, but also photography, editing, and concept creating.

About two years into it I started creating content on a regular basis, linked my blog to google analytics so I could track it’s progress and started reading up on social media strategies.

My love for blogging grew, but the readers were not sticking around.

Whenever I would read about it, the internet told me that if you did not have any success after 2 years you might as well just let it go.

But I was not doing it for the readers, and am still not doing it for that reason. With that said, saying that I did not get demotivated and discouraged would be a lie. I was putting so many hours into the blog and seeing the numbers fall each day was devastating.

My numbers are low – very low. And have been four years now.

I am finishing my masters degree in less than two months, have started my own IT consultancy firm together with colleagues and I love what I am doing.

My time is spent on writing my thesis, implementing a project for it, working two jobs at the university, starting my own company and juggling life with a i’ll mom while still being a good friend, sister and blogger.

The stress of life in general combined with the blog not ‘going anywhere’ even after four years of consistency, lead to me doubting myself and it was simply too much.

The pressure of social media is a topic on its own, but in its simplicity the world of social media is toxic. It has become a place where we are now trying to commercialize ourselves, rather than connect. A place where the psychological effects of likes, comments and shares are proving to affect our mental health in a negative manner rather than positive. It is scary.

I am not quitting blogging, but I am no longer promising to post consistently. I will be posting as much as my mind lets me.

I will be posting on Instagram on a regular basis so head over there if you miss me as much as I am going to miss you (on the days that I don’t post – this is not goodbye 😉 )

Thank you for four years and hopefully more to come <3

En lille video om mine tanker omkring det at starte en blog. Nogengange kan det måske se ud som om at bloggere er de mest selvsikre mennesker men sådan er det næsten aldrig. Vi kæmper allesammen med det ene eller det andet. Det gør os menneskelig.

Jeg er meget nervøs for denne her så fortæl mig endelig hvad i synes, så jeg kan få lidt ro på gider i? Haha.

A little video on my thoughts on starting a blog. Sometimes it may look like bloggers are the most confident people ever, but it is almost never the case. We are all struggling with something. It makes us human. 

I am very nervous about this one so do me a favour and tell me what you think will ya?! That way I can calm down a bit haha. 

Love A 

Så er katten ude! Jeg har startet en youtube kanal og håber i vil følge med i det her skøre eventyr!

Tak for støtten venner!

Knus og en masse kærlighed fra A!

My secret is out! I have started a youtube channel and I hope you will follow along on this  crazy adventure! 

Thank you for the support friends! 

Lots of love from A! 

Mig og min lillesøster sad forleden og kiggede bloggen igennem, bare for at se hvor meget man egentlig har ændret sig på små 4 år.

Og jeg kan sagtens se hvordan mit ansigt er blevet mere modent, og min stil mere defineret. Godt nok har jeg altid været all-over-the-place med min tøjstil og er det stadig, men lidt mere indskærpet er den da blevet.. Synes i ikke?

Jeg må bare konstatere at min stil er og forbliver et billede at mit humør – Det ændrer sig altid.

Hold nu op jeg har prøvet meget, og der er da også nogle gange hvor jeg tænker “HVAD HAR DU PÅ?!!, men så er der andre gange som f.eks. mit matchende multifarvede set ovenover, hvor jeg tænker “gid jeg gik i sådan noget igen” haha.

Har jeres stil ændret sig meget gennem årenes forløb eller er i stadig lidt over det hele som mig?

Knus A

Me and my younger sister were sitting the other day looking at my old blog pictures and realizing how much I had changed over the course of four years.

I notice how my face has become more mature, and my style more defined. With that said, I know that I am still all over the place when it comes to ‘style’ but it has gotten a bit more defined don’t you think?

I just have to be at peace with my style and the fact that it will always remain a picture of the mood I am in – always changing.

I mean the good thing about it is that I have tried it ALL and while there are some things where I am like “GIRL WHAT ARE YOU DOING” other times I am like “I which I was more like this now”.

Has your style changed through the course of the years, or are you still a bit all over the place like me?

Love A

Jeg er hvert år til PRIDE paraden, og elsker at planlægge mit outfit så det er lidt farverigt så jeg matcher alle de skønne mennesker der går i paraden.

Dette år tog jeg dog en spontan tur til England hvilket betød at jeg missede paraden.

Det er første gang jeg ikke ser den, så da jeg var i England skyndte jeg mig i PRIMARK for at finde noget med den skønne regnbue.
Det ene førte til det andet og jeg kom aldrig til at lave opslaget.

ØV!
Men vi burde fejre kærlighed og forskellighed hele året rundt, så her er jeg altså i min regnbue!

Jeg forstår ikke hvordan vi lever i en verden hvor der ikke er plads til at vi må elske dem vi falder for, have den religion vi tror på, må være glad for vores krop og jeg kunne blive ved.

Lad os lade være med at definere hinanden ud fra hvem vi forelsker os i, hvilken religion vi har, eller hvordan vi ser ud. Lad os i stedet fokusere på vores handlinger.

Der findes kun én af dig. Og DU er SKØN ♡

Knus A

Every year I make sure that I am able to attend the PRIDE parade. I plan out what I am wearing, who I am going with, where we are standing to get the best view of the beautiful people that walk.

This year I took a spontaneous trip to England, which meant that I missed the parade.

When in England, I rushed to the nearest PRIMARK to find something that had the beautiful rainbow on it, but one thing lead to another and I was not able to make the post whilst there.

But we should celebrate our differences and love  all year around so here I am in my rainbow.

I dont get how we live in a world where there is no room for people to love who they fall for, have the religion they desire to have, or be happy for the body that God gave them.

Let’s put all the hate on the shelf and instead focus on all the beauty that surrounds us.

Let’s not define each other by who we will, what religion we belong to, or our looks. Lets instead focus on the actions we take.

There is only one of you. And YOU are GORGEOUS  ♡

Her er en håndfuld billeder fra min tur til Polen med søde Karina. Vi tog tre dage i hovedstaden warszawa, som alle blev pakket med sightseeing, god mad og endnu bedre selskab.

A her havde tjekket vejrudsigten nogle uger før vi tog afsted, og så at det vil blive mellem 30-35 grader i skønne polen, så da dagen kom til at pakke stolede jeg da bare på vejrudsigten jeg så et par uger før og pakkede LET.

DÅRLIG IDÉ…. hahaha det regnede alle tre dage vi var der, første dag med skybrud… Flot A!

På trods af mine dårlige pakke evner og vejret havde jeg en skøn tur!

SÅ snup et glas kold lemonade og set noget godt musik på og nyd billederne.

Skøn dag venner!

Here are a handful of pictures from my trip to Poland with sweet Karina. We took three days in the capitol warsaw, which were all spent on sightseeing, food and even better company.

Your girl A here checked the weather forecast weeks before leaving, which said it would be 30-35 degrees. As the day of packing came i trusted the forecast, which I saw weeks earlier, and packed light…. BAD IDEA…. hahaha it rained all three days… Great A!

Oh well, despite the bad packing and the rain I had a good trip!

SO grab a cup of lemonade, put on a good track and enjoy the pictures.

Have a good one friends!

Love A

viewpoint of the city

Stunning church

us in a nutshell! Haha

Stunning old town! 

A model and a gnom… Haha! 

Old market where the lokals sell things (not all legal)… haha! 

A trip to the neon museum! LOOK HOW HOT SHE IS!!! 

The End! 

A little clock

Jeg er liige kommet tilbage fra en tre-dages tur til Polen. Jeg tror aldrig jeg fik fortalt jer hvem jeg skulle til Polen med… MY BAD! 

For snart seks måneder siden skrev den sødeste mor blogger til mig på Instagram og spurgte hvem og hvordan jeg tog mine billeder. Jeg svarede, og fandt snart ud af at hun var kone til én af mine klassekammerater, og derfra gik venskabet HURTIGT!
Den søde mor-blogger er Karina fra bloggen Karina Selvig (se HER), som seks måneder efter at have skrevet mig en besked på instagram inviterede mig til en tre-dagstur til Polen. Haha! Skøn er hun!

Vi har haft en lækker tur og boede i den mest SMUKKE lejlighed – Tesla lejligheden i warszawa. SÅ smuk indrettet, med seje detaljer fra teslas egen historie, til små dingenoter fra nutid og datid.

Den kan klart anbefales hvis nogen af jer skulle til warszawa!

Nu vil en træt A gå i seng og få indhentet noget søvn!

Vi ses igen på søndag til lidt mere om Polen 😉

I have just stepped in the door from a three day long trip to Poland. I don’t think I ever told you who I was going with… MY BAD!

For about six months ago the sweetest mom blogger wrote me a message on my Instagram asking me who and how I took my pictures. I answered and soon found out that she was  the wife of one of my classmates, and from that the friendship grew FAST.

The sweet mom blogger is Karina from the Karina Selvig blog (se HERE), who six months after having written me that Instagram message asked me to go with her on a trip to Poland. Hahaha she is the best!

We had the most lovely trip in the most STUNNING apartment – we stayed in the tesla apartment in Warsaw. The interior design was stunning with quirky details from teslas own history to small technological devices from the past and present. I can highly recommend it if some of you are planning to visit there.

Now a very tired A will go to bed and catch up on some sleep!

I’ll see you on Sunday for a little more on Poland.

Love A

Som i alle ved så var jeg på vandretur i sverige sammen med Camilla fra uni. Vi tog en tur til söderåsen som er et naturreservat i det nordlige sverige. Det er et stort område, som består af forskellige ruter i forskellige længder og sværhedsgrad.

Det er et super godt sted hvis man som mig aldrig har prøvet det før, da der ligger hytter og shelters rundt omkring som man kan overnatte i, i stedet for lægge i det fri.

Camilla er gammel spejder så hun har bare styr på alt hvad der hedder overlevelse i vildmarken, uden hende ved vi allesammen godt at jeg ville være ret så fortabt haha!

Vi fik gået omkring 30 km i alt på 2,5 dag, fik set en masse natur, dyr og vandløb.

Skøn tur!

Nedenunder er der liiige et HAV af billeder fra turen (jeg kunne ikke vælge haha)!

Happy scrolling!

As you all know I went on a hiking trip with my good friend Camilla from uni.
We went to söderåsen which is a nature reserve in northern Sweden. It is basically a huge green area with different route of different lengths and difficulty levels.

It has everything from nature, animals to beautiful viewpoints and water running throughout the entire area.

Camilla has also been a giri scout for a good time of her life, which was definitely a big plus! We all know i would not have survived without her…. haha!

We walked approximately 30 km on 2,5 day and got to see stunning nature!

Below are A LOT of images from the trip… I could not choose haha=!

Happy scrolling!

 Feeding my boyfriend. I think he loves me.

lake view!

Titanic who?

The most fresh water you could get!

I want to thank the heat and humidity for my gorgeous looks.

The sleeping arragements for the first night. No we were not scared of evil spirits. No we did not sleep in one bed. (Yes we did)…..

Oh see a sweaty ariel! It’s a rare species.

When ariel got her feet.

Thank you for making it so far! YOU have a good day friend!

Jeg har lavet denne skønne gule plakat i dagens anledning. Det der står er nemlig lige det jeg har tænkt mig at gøre – spise en masse kage – og sove… For gæt hvad… JEG HAR SOMMERFERIEEEEEE!!!!

Jeg kan virkelig mærke på mig selv at jeg havde sat for stort et press på mig gennem mange år, hvad angår skole. Jeg er typen der læser alle lektier, tager til alle timer, bliver på skolen fra kl 9 om morgen til klokken 21 om aftenen. Det har stået sådan på i 4 år nu, inklusiv sommerferie og jeg er kørt helt ned.

Jeg har desperat brug for ikke at lave noget.. Kender i det? haha

SÅ denne sommer skal jeg bare slappe af, være sammen med familie og venner og ikke lave noget hvor man skal bruge hjernen for meget haha!

Vi skal lade være med at sætte os selv under så stort et press. Det skal sku nok gå i sidste ende. Tag den lur du desperat har brug for. Spis kagen du har haft lyst til i 100 år. Tag kjolen på som du altid har villet tage på men aldrig har haft modet til at gøre.

Vi lever kun én gang, hvorfor bruge tiden på at tvivle på os selv 😉

Knus A

I have made this gorgeous yellow poster today because what it says, is exactly what I am going to do because guess what! SCHOOL’S OUT!!!!!

I can really feel on my body that I have been putting a tremendous pressure on myself for the past four years. I am that girl who studies everything, attends all classes, and stays on campus from 9am to 9pm. Doing that day in and day out, including weekends and holidays has really taken a toll on me.

I am in desperate need of not doing anything… Do you know that feeling? haha.

SO the agenda for this summer is to do absolutely nothing – just be with friends and family and not think too much!

WE all need to stop putting ourselves under that much pressure. It will all be fine in the end, and if it is not fine. You will still get through it in one piece.

Eat that cake that you have been wanting for eat for 100 years, take the nap that you have been needing but never found the time to take, and wear that dress that you have always wanted to wear but never had the courage to do so!

We only live once, why use the time to doubt ourselves 😉

Og så blev HumbleA 3 år gammel. WOW!

Da jeg først startede bloggen var jeg ret bekymret for hvad folk i min omgangskreds ville tænke om mig – der er desværre en hvis stereotype omkring bloggere. Det har ikke været nemt – og jeg er da også blevet drillet af folk der ikke ved bedre. Jeg er har været fuldtidsstuderende på universitetet på samme tid med bloggen og det har på ingen måde været nemt. Det har krævet høj disciplin at ligge noget op tre gange om ugen, præcis kl 17 –  Uge efter uge, år efter år.

Jeg har nu ca. 300 følgere på Instagram, 71 på facebook og så har jeg en håndfuld faste læsere her på bloggen.
Det lyder ikke af meget efter 3 år, og jeg er ikke sky for at sige at jeg på det sidste har overvejet at stoppe, da jeg følte at der ikke var “fremgang”…

Men hver gang jeg får de tanker husker jeg på hvor GLAD jeg bliver af at lave de her små opslag til jer, jeg husker på at 300 MENNESKER på Instagram faktisk er RIGTIG meget og jeg husker at der er JER! – Mine faste følgere som jeg kan se klikker ind på bloggen HVER tirsdag, torsdag og søndag bare for at læse hvad lille mig har at sige.

Det gør mig varm om hjertet!
TAK for DIG! TAK fordi du gider at læse med! TAK for støtten!  TAK TAK TAK <3

Jeg fortsætter så længe der bare er én der gider at læse med!

Kærlighed til jer

And then HumbleA was three years old.. WOW!
When I first started the blog I remember being very concerned about what others would think about me since there is a certain stereotype connected with being a blogger. It has not been easy, and I must admit that I have been teased by people who don’t know better. I have managed keeping the blog updated despite being a fulltime student at uni, and it has not been a piece of cake.
It has demanded a high amount of discipline from my side to post something on the blog three times a week at precisely 5PM week after week, year after year.

I now have 300 friends on Instagram, 71 on facebook and a handful of loyal friends that  click on the link and reads the posts that I write here on the blog.

It might not sound as much, and I am not shy to admit that I have considered quitting because I have not been able to see any ‘progress’..

But every time I think like that, I make sure to remind myself how HAPPY it makes me to create content for you guys, I remind myself that 300 PEOPLE on Instagram are ALOT and i remind myself that there is YOU – who check in on the vlof every tuesday thursday and sunday just to see what little me has to say.

And that makes my heart melt.
THANK YOU for YOU! THANK YOU for reading! THANK YOU for the support! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I will keep blogging even if there is only one person who wants to read along!

Much love from
A
