Seeing that you have fell in love with my first post in new series of “Visit Helsinki” posts, I’m continuing by presenting you another gem and a “must” spot when visiting Helsinki. Being born in Russia and half Russian from my mother’s side, the respect for Russian culture, food and traditions has been deeply instilled in me. I have always loved Russian cuisine but due to me growing up in Croatia, the only time I got a chance to eat amazing Russian food was when I would visit my grandparents in Moscow, once or twice a year.
Is it Friday afternoon already? Oh yes it is and I’m very happy that the weekend is here. I def. need two days to organise myself and put my schedule for the next week in order. I have so much coming/ happening this month which is also my birthday month! Yay! ๐
Good morning my dear readers! Here’s a very important post that I’ve been very much looking forward to publish. I had a wonderful chance to collaborate with one of the gigantic and very respected names in Finnish design. AARIKKAย is irreplaceable name in Finnish design history and continues to be one of the most important “labels” that Finland is known for and all of the tourist are shopping for when bringing a souvenir or a special gift back home with them.
Wooosh! That’s the sound of this week flying by! It’s been a very intensive week and I’m barely holding all of the “hooks” in my hands. There’s so much to do, work on, fulfil and I’m not even going to start with complaining on how my flat looks like a whole zoo of animals ran through it… Several times! ๐
Fall is definitely in full swing here in Helsinki! I’m more and more often waking up to rainy mornings or walking back home in the evening while the rain is “washing up” the city’s streets. As much as I love my sunshine and relaxing time by the beach, I also love the feeling of freshness and new beginning that the Fall brings. I don’t know how or why but I suddenly feel so much more creative, focused and find it easy to take on any work task. How about you my readers? Do you like Fall and why?
Good morning my dear readers! How are you and how was your weekend? I was SO tired over the weekend and have worked a ton, but have also managed to meet with my friends, run errands and get semi-prepared for this new working week. The schedule is quite hectic almost every day this week, but being organised and writing down on the paper everything ( I know, I know, I’m getting old-er ๐ ) is the key to success. ๐
How in the world is it already Friday? I feel like the days are literally flying by. Next month is my birthday month already! What are your plans for this weekend? Besides work and crazy amount of clothes that I need to wash, dry and iron, I’m planning to bake my favourite cheesecake and go for a sushi date at my favourite Japanese restaurant.
Good morning everybody! First of all, I’d like to THANK you for a wonderful response on my previous post and for all of the comments that you left me. It means a lot to me and gives me even more “wind” to my blogger’s back to blog my heart out in the future too. ๐
Good morning everybody!! I just woke up and while sipping my morning’s 1st tea, I’m thinking about how this Monday already rocks! My little sister has a BIRTHDAY today, so HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my sister!! Unfortunately, she’s in Croatia right now, so I won’t be spending this day with her, but luckily she’ll come to visit me in October and then we’ll make up for all of the time that we couldn’t spend together this year.
Summer’s end? After not really having a Summer in Helsinki, August was absolutely wonderful! The sun kept on shining every day so far, the days were perfectly warm and the outdoor life was buzzing like as if we ‘re somewhere much more south in Europe than we are.
