NIPPLE

We don't know what this painting wants to tell us. It's full of symbology and mystery.

Why is she touching her nipple? what the person on the background doing? why can't we see the face of the man inside the painting on the wall? why are there red curtains?

so intriguing.

You can find it in Paris at Le Louvre.

SVERIGE

Hej hej!
Mitt namn är Luca, jag är 21 år och jag är från Italien.
Jag studerar läran om hjärnan (neuroscience). Jag har varit utbytesstudent i England i ett år och mitt nästkommande internationella projekt kommer att vara i Stockholm vid Karolinska Institutet. Jag gillar människor, är social, jag gillar musik och konst. Jag har besökt Sverige två gånger tidigare och älskade det och nu ska jag stanna i ett halvår (augusti till februari), eventellt mer.
Jag letar efter ett möblerat rum eller en lägenhet att hyra, helst i city eller närliggande. Min budget ligger på maximalt 5000 kr i månaden, el och bredband inräknat.
Tveka inte att kontakta mig på facebook: Luca Iemi (jag har bilden med förstoringsglaset) eller via mail: luca.iemi@gmail.com
Min svenska är inte så bra som jag önskar så det bästa vore om ni kunde svara mig på engelska.
Tack så mycket! Hej då!

SWITZERLAND IN THE SNOW

I am heading to switzerland.

Tonight and tomorrow.

I am going to walk over the frozen lake.

I want to meet a Fox in the snow.

I want to meet a Fox in the snow.

Girl in the snow, where will you go To find someone that will do? To tell someone all the truth before it kills you They listen to your crazy laugh Before you hang a right And disappear from sight What do they know anyway? You'll read it in a book What do they know anyway? You'll read it in a book tonight Boy on the bike, what are you like As you cycle round the town? You're going up, you're going down You're going nowhere It's not as if they're paying you It's not as if it's fun At least not anymore When your legs are black and blue It's time to take a break When your legs are black and blue It's time to take a holiday Kid in the snow, way to go It only happens once a year It only happens once a lifetime Make the most of it Second just to being born Second to dying to What else could you do? -Belle & Sebastian-
