Living for love

February 9, 2015

It’s Monday morning, I’m up early and am about to go to the gym! I feel like I need a good session on a running belt and cross trainer. This always helps me set the beginning of the week in the right tone. It’s also my “natural” way on keeping warm when it’s cold outside as I feel the hot waves for couple of hours after the workout. πŸ˜€ Secrets to living in the nordic countries!

Gourmet moment : Guacamole

February 8, 2015

Good Sunday everybody! Any lovers of avocado over here?? I’m SO avobsessed!! πŸ˜€ Avocado in anything, anywhere, anytime and I’m gonna be the first one to jump in and start munching. πŸ™‚

My favourite way to have avocado is in guacamole, it beats any sandwich spread or salad “sauce” because it’s super healthy and so easy to prepare.

This is the way how I like to prepare it, but I do “adjust” it from time to time, depending on if I feel like I need more spiciness or so…

Boho chic date

February 6, 2015

Hello Friday! I’ve been missing you ever since the last week. πŸ™‚ Today was a really nice day because the sun finally came out and instantly made the whole city look so pretty! I’ve come to appreciate the sun and daylight on a whole new level ever since moving to Helsinki and experiencing the “never-ending” darkness during the Fall and Winter months.

Another thing that made this Friday a really lovely one is the fact that I finally got a proper amount of sleep and I feel so refreshed!

Yellow Flicker Beat

February 4, 2015

Good morning sweethearts! I hope that you’re having a good week so far and that the weather isn’t as silly where you’re at as it is in Helsinki. Slush is everywhere and the sleet keeps on falling constantly… I’m so ready for the LA weather. I can’t stop looking at photos of the palm trees and beautiful sunsets that LA had lately.

You know what guys? I’m shitting my pants to be honest… I’m so ready to open the doors of this new chapter in my life and at the same time I’m so anxious about the move that I haven’t slept at all for the past 4-5 days. Eating boxes of ice cream and different sweets didn’t help either in getting a good sleep… πŸ˜€

February 2, 2015

Good Monday morning everybody! Are you ready for the new working week? I definitely am, besides work and daily life’s errands, I also need to start selling, giving away clothes, furniture, toys and pack my “life” into boxes. I have 26 days on me to get everything taken care of and ready to go to another continent. Thank you everybody for all of the nice and heartwarming messages and wishes on my move and new chapter that will start in my life, it definitely makes me feel more at ease and gives a nice “wind” in my back.

Friday

January 30, 2015

Yup, Friday is already here and I’m more than happy that this week is over. It’s been a very stressful week and filled with changes, good ones, but they did take a toll on me. My husband gave a final notice at his work, our lease of this apartment is up and I did catch a cold… Bit too much going on at the same time. On a positive note, maybe I wasn’t too clear in my previous post, because I got lots of questions about me leaving Finland. I’m not leaving yet/ didn’t leave yet, but I am going to be flying off to US in a month from now.

Pills N Potions

January 28, 2015

Good morning my dear readers! I hope that this Wednesday will treat you well and make the mid of the working week an easy one for you.

I’m about to hit the gym after I write this post. I love going to gym because not just that I’m doing something great for my physical health, but even more important – to my mental health. Every time when I needed to “work through” something or had to get my thoughts cleared out, gym would be my saviour. I never understood why everybody thinks that going to gym is about loosing weight? At some point I’ve stopped even mentioning that I’m going to the gym because people would always say: “But you don’t need to loose weight!” Yep, I’m going there for different reasons, you know like wanting to have strength in my body and mind. No pills or potions that can give you as much pleasure and positivity as a natural adrenaline that happens when you workout.

Blurred

January 26, 2015

Good Monday morning everybody! How are you doing? How was your weekend? I’ve been getting back to “normal” after our Zagreb trip, washing, drying and ironing tons of clothes, grocery shopping ( my fridge was completely empty ) and in general getting everything organised for a new working week.

Even though sometimes things are a blur and even when you know what you want to do/ where you want to go in life, I tend to at times get overwhelmed and pictures get blurry… That’s when I start to freak out and get “afraid” of what future holds. I have to always remind myself that fear doesn’t exist, that’s a shitty creation that happens in my head when I can’t control something… I always try to ask myself this question: “What would you do if there wouldn’t be fear of failure ?” The answer is SO MUCH!
