My first meeting with Björk :)

 Yesterday in the evening I just ran into Björk on Laugavegur street! :) That's a great feeling as I was big fan of her music in my student times! I knew she will be my neighbour when I move to Iceland ;)

She was just going out of  her shining white car, luxury and huge one jeep-like. Wearing a blue dress with some ethnic patterns,  very elegant and slim. Long dark hair, dark eyes, pale skin, she still looks young!

She looked in my direction and in this moment I recognised her. Wow, can't believe, it's Björk! I was not more then 2 metres from her, even had a thought that maybe I should talk to her, but this is her city and she was probably going to a shop as it's a sales time.. So I just watched her passing near by for a while, totally surprised by this coincidence. 

In this moment I was carring a bag with a pot plant, a new vivid creature that  will  be first non-human inhabitant of my room. So now the plant will be a memory of this unexpectable encounter. I hope to see her again, maybe this time at  the concert! :))

In fact Björk was my first link to Iceland! When I was a student and was renting a flat with two other friends for a first time in my life, in Mokotów district in Warsaw, I remember that I had only one photo stuck above my mattress, it was photo of Björk from 'Dancing in the dark' movie. She was such an inspiring artist to me,  with her emotional and authentic voice, extraordinary way of expression and incredible energy and creativity. And there was some magic and mystery behind it all.. :)

  One of my favourite songs of hers was Isobel:

My name Isobel
Married to myself
My love Isobel
Living by herself   

And how strange,  I'd never seen this artistic video clip before as internet wasn't very popular thing that days..

Today it's started to be windy again, I hope that there is still a high chance of magnetic storm tonight that brings astonishing spectacle of the northern lights! Activity lavel is 4 in 9 grade scale but it's a little bit too much cloudy.. I hope it's coming soon!!! :)))
