I saw some similarities between one of the pictures my mother sent me from when I was ten, and another my girlfriend took of me after a hike this summer, so I decided I would combine them into one image, alongside one of my favorite quotes from Doctor Who.
Top 10 Songs from ‘MoS: Level 5’
Back in February, I shared my favorite song from each ‘Miracle of Sound’ album.
This proved to be very difficult, as there are so many great songs there!
InterRail 2010 – Part 10: Alnwick Castle
After visiting Cardiff I took the train back to England, and traveled north up to Newcastle, Northumberland.
After dropping my rucksack of at a hotel, I hopped on the bus out to Alnwick Castle.
InterRail 2010 – Part 9: Cardiff
After having seen Stonehenge, I took the train to Cardiff, the capital of Wales.
I had been wanting to travel to Cardiff for a few years, ever since I got into ‘Doctor Who’.
Discovering ‘Doctor Who’
In the fall of 2005, at the age of 15, I fell in love with a British science fiction show.
I had been watching the Norwegian national broadcasting network’s second channel NRK2 to an excessive point all through the summer.
InterRail 2010 – Part 7: Traveling to England

This is an award that they hand out to various bloggers they like, from time to time.
McDuck Breast
For this month’s geeky recipe, I decided to make a dish based on Disney’s Scrooge McDuck!
I have previously expressed my love for the Scottish trillionair duck’s comic books here, but what is even better than reading about Donald Duck’s uncle, is eating him!
The Russo Brothers’ Community
These two movies, alongside ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ and the next 2019 Avengers film, were all directed by Anthony and Joseph Russo.
Easter Crime
In Norway, one of our main Easter traditions is reading and watching crime fiction, which we will often sit down to enjoy after a long nice walk in the snow.
Time Travel Stories
I love time travel in fiction.
That is one of the main reasons why I love Doctor Who.
I love how this storytelling device can put ideologies from vastly different cultures, separated by decades or centuries, up against each other. By doing this, we can compare them, and find strengths and weaknesses in both. It can also just lead to funny jokes, or cool imagery, like a medieval knight riding on a velociraptor and wielding a laser sword.
