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

Let’s meet the days together

Monday, February 22, 2010 at 7:30pm Posted in portrait

“I miss you when something really good happens, because you are the one I want to share it with. I miss you when something is troubling me, because you are the one who understands me so well. I miss you when I laugh and cry because i know that you are the one that makes my laughter grow and my tears disappear. I miss you all the time, but I miss you most when I lay awake at night and think of all the wonderful times we spent with each other; for those were some of the best times of my life.”
Quote is borrowed from Jeanette Winterson on Thinkexist.com

True friends are absolutely amazing. They can make a chewing gum seem funny. A broken heart is definitely not a problem, they lend you their own heart until yours is whole again. And even if we all knew that the End of the World were upon us, our true friends would make it feel like a vacation.

“Pack your bag light mate, we’re off to buy some ice cream so we can enjoy the fireworks peacefully. And oh, don’t forget the sunscreen.”

“I miss you when something really good happens, because you are the one I want to share it with. I miss you when something is troubling me, because you are the one who understands me so well. I miss you when I laugh and cry because i know that you are the one that makes my laughter grow and my tears disappear. I miss you all the time, but I miss you most when i lay awake at night and think of all the wonderful times we spent with eachother;for those were some of the best times of my life.”

Dressed to impress

Wednesday, February 17, 2010 at 10:35pm Posted in 10 australia, portrait

In roughly six hours we are leaving Manjimup for a few days which feels quite nice. We have probably one more week of vacation before the fruit picking starts. Herman the German is already packed with a few clothes, books, cameras, food consisting of baked beans and sandwiches. Everything a couple need! Oh yes, and one blanket and our sleeping bags in case it gets cold in the car.

We’re going south/south east from where we are now. Maybe visit some National Parks, climb some more trees and enjoy the beach at Denmark. There is actually a town called Denmark in Australia, it is hilarious.

Hopefully I’ll have enough battery to do blog updates. Have fun and stay happy until tomorrow or longer, if you want.

Cruising to the beach

Friday, October 23, 2009 at 8:14pm Posted in 09 australia, portrait

Yeah what can I really tell you? We left around lunchtime today to go for a spin with our orange beetle Herman the German and came a bit further than we’d expected! We drove first to Torquay which is famous for its surfing locations. After a walk and chillout on the beach we continued on the Great Ocean Road. It’s a beautiful road with lots of curves and twists which inspires the Colin McRae in me, shouting out “Easy right, hard left, S-bend!” Well, maybe not shouting but you get the drift.

A lot of bends and turns later we arrived in Lorne which seemed like a pretty relaxed place with its beaches, backpackerpeople and nice restaurants. We had the best burgers ever and relaxed, taking in the atmosphere and tasted the salty air.

Being able to drive an old suntanned beetle to the beach, with the windows down and Beach Boys pumping high in the summer, is a pretty good feeling… Must admit that it’s a bit tempting to buy two surfboards and then mount on the roof of Herman to finalize the surflook. What do you think?

And oh by the way, did I mention that summer is finally here?

A day of planning and contemplation

Sunday, August 30, 2009 at 8:52am Posted in 09 new zealand, nature, portrait

All we did yesterday was planning, scrambled eggs and then a bit more planning. After we had all our prioritizing fixed sorry the Kancoona-gang, no real food in the future) we took a walk downtown. For reasons unknown we took a wrong turn and ended up in this beautiful park, which is named Kuirau Park. It is filled with lots of geothermal pools and activity. Quite awesome really. Some of them are only small (yeah small, like your smallest hand) and from them are bubbling liquid.

However how beautiful and pretty it is to see steam, it does smell like rotten eggs. Or even worse. When you are in Rotorua, you can always blame the geothermal activity if you accidently pull of a stinker. Good to know eyy.

Also during our walk Jenny found a drive-in liqueurstore which is quite handy for the daily alcoholic who also drives drunk. On a different subject, in a few hours we are doing the zorbing! Amazing. You just can’t wait for the action-pictures. At least we can’t.

Talk to you soon!
