• This is my first post. Hi.

  • It’s the final countdown!

    I really enjoy the general experience of Instagram. I really don’t enjoy that Facebook owns the platform and all of the things that come with that.

    I really enjoy the open web. I’m much happier when figuring out solutions to things using the open web than I am when using closed platforms that thrive on the sale of information about my friends and family.

    So I’m moving on. I’ll be deleting this account by the end of the week. I’m going to archive all of my photos on my personal site, jeremyfelt.com, and I’m going to try out Pixelfed as an alternative to Instagram. If that doesn’t work, I’ll find another.

    Thanks for sharing all your photos with me and liking (or not) all of mine. Its been a fun many years.

    There’s a link in my bio for more information. It has to go there because Instagram doesn’t like the open web. Feel free to DM me if you want more info or want to keep in touch another way.

    See y’all around ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป #onelastfilter

  • After reading Richard Powers’s The Overstory, I’ve made more of an effort to appreciate and learn about trees. The rowan has been one that became quickly identifiable in Sweden. The Museum of Natural History in Stockholm included it as part of a tree identification puzzle that we played and our hike today in the Dalarna region was surrounded by them. I took a peek at the Wikipedia page later and loved seeing the many ways it has appeared in the folklore of various cultures. I love the idea of the traveler’s tree that prevents people from getting lost or the portal tree that acts as a threshold between this world and another. ๐ŸŒณ

  • No toads!

  • Going all in with extra baked crispbread, Kalles (creamed cod roe), and BaconOst (creamy cream cheese made with selected classic cheese and Swedish bacon). The flavor of the Kalles is STRONG ๐Ÿ˜ณ but the kid on the bottle looks super happy about it

  • Okay ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

  • We probably should have taken the tunnel underneath this stairway because that looks super cool, but the view is pretty excellent from above.

  • 1400 years ago, Vikings built the outline of a stone ship out of carefully placed 5 ton (!!!) granite boulders so that cows could later use them as a place to scratch their heads on the way to dinner. ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿฎ

  • Edinburgh has been a fantastic city to visit, if only for 36 hours. I really had no idea how beautiful it was, especially in the sun! We’ll be happy to come back for a much longer stay in the future. ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ

  • Getting my steps in on Warriston Close ๐Ÿ˜…

  • Haggis is much, much better than I was ever led to believe. Happy, but slightly disappointed it wasn’t a difficult food to conquer. We’ll see tomorrow morning when I have it for breakfast whether the whisky played a role in tonight’s opinion. ๐Ÿ˜†
