Throwback Thursday – Part 4: Salon Party
Life is good at Tala Lodge! We are working a lot, but not at the boat so I dug up some nice videos about the work we have done in the machine room and the saloon (United Kingdom English) or salon (United States of America English). The salon of the…

Throwback Thursday – Part 3: Reality-TV
When I go through all the material we’ve shot the last months, sometimes I find videos or pictures that I don’t like the first time I saw them back, but the second time I watch it, I think, oh well, this was quite a good representation of our mood that…
