New post in the series of “Visit Helsinki” posts is here and I’m happy to present you with the finest and most traditional french restaurant in Helsinki, Pastis.
Good morning my dear readers! Happy Monday! I don’t know about you, but I’m counting days until Christmas. It’s incredible to say that in less than 3 weeks, we’ll be celebrating my favourite holiday of the year and I’m so happy that I’ll get to do that in Croatia with my Croatian family and friends. It’s been so many years since I got to do that last time. This is also a Christmas present to myself… Buying memories and not things is my motto! 🙂 Continue Reading…
Look at that!! I woke up and somehow, it happens to be Sunday, end of the week(end) and I have a whole new set of cravings… Food cravings that is! 😀
I’d like to wish a lovely Wednesday morning to everyone!! I hope that you’ve embraced the magical vibe of December and are in time with all of your plans and “to-do” lists before the Christmas and New Year’s Eve festivities take over. 🙂 I’m bringing you another collaboration post as part of my Visit Helsinki series of posts in which I recommend you the best places in Helsinki for dining, shopping, exploring, staying at, etc.
Good Monday morning my dear readers! I hope that your weekend was a good one and was filled with holidays’ spirit since it’s the most beautiful time of the year and we have less than a month left until the Christmas and New Year’s Eve festivities. 🙂 Many of you have left comments on either my Instagram or on my blog that you’ll be visiting my city of Helsinki in December, so I thought that it was a perfect moment to present you Hotel Indigo® as part of my “Visit Helsinki” series of posts in which I present you the best places to go and explore in Helsinki, from shops, spas, restaurants, to hotels, museums, etc.
Weekends are the two days when I try to take an extra care of myself and I love to pamper myself with anything, from fine dining, shopping to “beautifying” myself. Beautifying, meaning that I like to take couple of extra steps in my beauty routine for which I usually have no time over the week, like putting facial masks on. I was lucky to be sent two face masks by Madara Cosmetics Finland to test: Detox and Peel. I was just about to buy new face mask so these masks arrived just in time. 🙂
I love to cook and experiment in the kitchen. It’s not something that I have to do but something that I truly enjoy doing and am passionate about. There are no dull dishes coming out of my kitchen and that’s something I’m proud of, esp. since I have a family and to see their happy faces each time I present them with a new dish is simply a priceless moment.
Toca! A Finnish take on Italian cuisine! Gennaro and Elina are a Finnish – Italian couple with a burning passion for great food and are 100% proudly standing behind each dish that comes out of the kitchen. Upon entering TOCA, I had an instant vibe of being somewhere in Brooklyn, NYC and not in the middle of Helsinki.
“Beauty is in the eye of beholder!” Absolutely true! There can be only one thing to observe and 10 different people watching it, each will see the object in a different way. I always try to find beauty everywhere and in everything.
