Välkommen till Umeå!

from top to bottom: restaurants downtown; "the big hotel"; downtown at dusk; downtown at dusk (3pm); these hearts are neon lights attached to a fence that surrounds a large playing field in the centre of town. they are quite big and would probably be two, possibly three, times my height. they've recently flooded the field to turn it into a skating rink; cinema behind the park; another shot of the hearts.

where i go to school. yes, i am aware that it looks like a barn in this photo. moo!
