Approximately one week ago, I spent my Sunday morning in central Finland in Jyväskylä where my friend Anna lives. Me and my two friends had arrived at Anna’s place Saturday afternoon and we were planning on spending the day eating delicious food, drinking wine and simply enjoying each other’s company. Us girls have known each other for 20 years already (we had planned throwing a party to celebrate the achievement but somehow all the other plans relating to work etc. got in the way). Anna has such a gorgeous apartment that, when arriving at their place, it actually took a while taking in the all the beauty. The colour scheme of their home is m ...

Waiting for our food while sipping some cold drinks to cool off Here’s the first set of random snapshots taken during our trip. Our flight arrived in Phuket airport where we continued the trip by a car-ride we had booked beforehand. After crossing the sea with a, let’s say, vintage ferryboat we arrived safely at our destination, Ko Lanta island. Tässä ensimmäinen kokoelma satunnaisia fiiliskuvia matkalta. Lentomme saapui Phuketin lentokentälle, josta matka taittui etukäteen varaamallamme kyydillä ja epäilyttävän vanhalla autolautalla päämääräämme Ko Lantan saarelle. Ate this tasty meal twice during our trip On Ko Lanta, we stayed the fi ...

Yesterday was an extra special day for me as I got to kick off the morning playing. My 1-year-old godson learns so many new things in such a short time, and the things that us adults take for granted are especially exciting for him. It wasn't just one or two times that I was forced to join in the laughter as his giggling laugh was so genuine and precious. Eilen oli erityisen mukava päivä, kun sain aloittaa aamun leikkien. 1-vuotias kummipoikani oppii pienessä ajassa paljon, ja asiat, joita me aikuiset pidämme itsestäänselvinä, ovat pienen mielestä jännittäviä. Ei ollut yksi tai kaksi kertaa, kun minun oli pakko yhtyä kummipojan suloisen vilp ...

As I spent the last weekend celebrating my friend's bachelorette party, it's time to lift the feet up and just take it easy this Saturday. The theme of the bachelorette bash was police, and we even got to try Megazone, which is a game where different teams combat with laserguns. Gotta admit I had certain prejudices against the idea of the game, but it actually turned out so much fun and even captivating, I'd say! Afterwards, as I went over the events of the day for M, he laughed up his sleeve and mumbled something like "girls playing war, that should've been captured on the video". Viime viikonloppu sujui pitkälti ystäväni polttareiden merke ...

Hey! Here's another set of snapshots we photographed in Paris. In France, we stayed overnight at a hotel called Le Pavillon des Lettres, which is quite nicely situated in the 8th arrondissement. It took only 500 metres of walk from our hotel to the best-known street in Paris, the Champs-Élysées. Like probably so many of you, we're always putting location first when scouting hotels. "Location, location, location!" could definitely be our mantra, too. Heipparallaa! Tässä toinen setti fiilistelykuvia Pariisista. Ranskassa yövyimme hotellissa nimeltä Le Pavillon des Lettres, jonka sijainti oli mitä parhain Pariisin 8. kaupungiosassa lyhyen, 500 ...

Here's the first part of my Nice photo diary. I simply love walking around with my Canon and shooting all the little details that catch my aesthetic eye. Tässä Nizzan kuvapäiväkirjani ensimmäinen osa. Nautin suunnattomasti kaupungin ihmettelemisestä kamera kainalossa, ja pienet, esteettistä silmää miellyttävät yksityiskohdat on aivan pakko pysähtyä tallentamaan filmille, tottakai. The second day we spent in Nice, we walked through the beautiful, legendary flower market, marché aux fleurs. I've actually thought about writing you a separate post about it! When visiting the city, don't skip walking to the hill situated in the eastern part of ...

Hey peeps, I'm back. It's been so hectic for the couple of weeks, that I haven't updated the blog, which is about to change. Last week I started a new, exciting job. In addition to a new beginning career-wise, I've also moved, and as of yesterday, I'm officially a full-time Helsinki-citygirl. Onpa kiva palata muutaman hektisen viikon jälkeen tänne blogin pariin. Kahdessa viikossa onkin tapahtunut paljon. Berliinin reissun jälkeen olen ehtinyt aloittamaan uudessa työpaikassa, juhlinut lääketieteellisen tiedekunnan vuosijuhlia ja viettänyt aikaa muuttohommissa. Eilisestä alkaen olen ollut virallisesti Helsinki-tyttö ja 6 vuotta kestänyt pendla ...
