Almost every Friday we get an e-mail from our PR agency in Norway with the latest pics of different styles of A/BARENESS designs that have been featured in various magazines & media here in Norway. It's a great way to "end" our never ending week, and we are so happy & grateful that so many out there likes our designs & the story of our brand. Thanks to all of you we have collected 1000 USD to our GIVE BACK project and soon starting building the new toilets at Maya Universe Academy. More about that very VERY soon!

KIDS
We all live under the same sun
&
kids are kids anywhere
you go...
gotta love them!
Always makes us smile those little
heartbreakers!
Some of the pupils at
Maya Universe Academy are staying at the
school even though it is not
a boarding school.
Like little Ujwal in green sitting
on my lap.
The day these pics were taken was
Mothers Day in Nepal
and Ujwal and his older brother
were told by Manjil, the founder of Maya
and basically all these kids 2nd father,
that in the evening they would get to
borrow his cellphone
to call their mother.
You can just imagine how their eyes
sparkled like firework in the dark!!
All the small things
makes life worth living
AND loving.

THE PROCESS?
Maybe it is not about winning or
loosing?
Cause you always learn something even
though it sometimes might feel
a bit meaningless, right?
It is all about the process and the babysteps
we are all taking when doing things
we have not done before.
Like running ( literally speaking!) our own brand and business...

not always easy to stay top motivated
and disiplined being your own boss and
all.
To see the increasing traffic

feedback from lovely people like YOU

So thanks a lot, for following

Just came back to Norway
1 week ago and the contrast between dusty,
noisy, colorful Kathmandu and
clean, peaceful and somehow slightly grey Oslo is
both extremely noticeable and very interesting!

Love the flower beds though!!
The small things. Simple joy. Simple living.

all about the small things & the beauty of life.
