hellocloud photography by Ken Lönnström bio picture

I love painting with words and describing life with pictures!

Born to this world screaming like everyone else, upset about leaving my safe and secure hidingplace. Where ever I looked there were unfamiliar things, peoples and expressions. Something was sounded in my so called ears, which I later understood were words. New places scared me.

As life has moved on I have come to realize that life really is meant to be lived the way you desire, no matter what. You and I, we can overcome all obstacles and live our dreams instead of just creating images of a different life.

At hellocloud you can read my travel stories, look at my photos and read some of my deeper thoughts or even perhaps some poetry. It will fulfill all my needs and hopefully you’ll find something worth reading or gazing at.

Stay happy!
Ken Lönnström

The Wheel of Progress

Tuesday, November 24, 2009 at 10:17am Posted in architecture, nature, personal

On rare occasions I have dreams that I actually remember. Most often they involve my past, what I’ve been through and they try to teach me things. At some instances when I’ve had problems or questions I’ve been pondering, they have been resolved not by me directly. They have been resolved by dreams. Sometimes when dreaming it is just like I’m an actor, playing a roll I can’t really change and experience things all over again, sometimes for years until they make sense. Do you recognize that sort of dreams?

On a different subject. Every day I think of you, my family and friends, wishing you were here to experience all these exciting things alongside me. It is a unique type of life I have experienced these last two years. Sometimes I get amazed myself when thinking about how far I’ve come and in that sense not only in distance. Personal development. Something all of us crave for every once in a while, to feel that we are getting somewhere. Not wasting the years, so that in the end you cannot remember which year you did what since they were all the same.

What I wanted to say is that I think of my family and friends every single day. Among those I count persons I’ve only met once that I still keep close to my heart. I promise never to stop striving for a life more suitable for me and wish you to promise the same thing to yourself. And not only promise, you have to mean it as well. Lets develop and expand and experience ourselves in all the ways possible for as long as we live. Come on, I dare you to live a unique life.

Lost in the mist

Monday, November 23, 2009 at 11:36pm Posted in 09 australia, nature

We did survive our 4000 km long trip from Melbourne VIC to Manjimup WA, which has been truly a remarkable trip. There is too much to say concerning this, especially now that we only have very limited Internet time. All we’ve had enough for is to just check our e-mails but not write anything. Sorry ’bout that!

This is just one of all the pictures I’ve taken through our six-days-journey. When we left the desert, the Nullarbor Plain, I did have a few tears in my eyes because I did not want it to end. That journey. Did not want to leave the Nullarbor, this spectacular scenery nor the great people living in the middle of nowhere.

One town we visited for fuel is called Madura. In Madura there are only six inhabitants. Then you probably understand how far from everything and everyone it is.

Today I began one of my new jobs. This one only last until tomorrow. On Wednesday I start my new career as a pruner which feels quite amazing. Really looking forward to it.

Please take care of you and don’t forget to drop by, promise I’ll update although I may not be available to write everytime.

Love makes the world go round.
