Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, my dear friends! I am sending you the best wishes, though with some clear delays. I have to say that the last year did not go as planned, but it was still better than 2019. Yes, in 2020 I had some complications, and yes, like I was afraid, some people left my…

Russian Vs. Finnish Hairdressers

One cultural experience which I wanted to share already for a long time - hairdressers. Living in Russia, I got used to the particular way. I always had long hair, and I always wanted to keep them long. I hated the visit to the hairdresser because my goal was to cut off 1-2 centimetres of…

Merry Christmas!

Have a peaceful and relaxing Christmas! ❤️🤗

Secret Life of Socks

I am not a cleaning frick, yet, I consider myself as a neat person. My things are categorised and easy to find. This means that I hardly ever can find something missing or in a wrong place. Just before Christmas, I decided to go through stuff and throw away unnecessary things. I found that there…

Story about Cheese

I can't say I am a big fan of cheeses like one of my friends who can't spend a single day without a bite. Yet, I enjoy trying different flavours from time to time. These days, we have all possible options in the shop, from cheap and simple to expensive and extravagant. Some have gentle…

Day, 30. Challenge is Over

Day, 29. Piano

I am not sure how old I was back then, 4-5 years old, I guess. Our neighbors had renovation in their apartment, and they stored their piano at our place for a couple of days. What a nice surprise for a preschool child! Big strange machine, which produces noise. Yes, this noise doesn't make sense,…

Day 28. Ville Valo

Today is the birthday of my favourite Finnish man - Ville Valo, the front man of the band - HIM. I was 16, when I heard them for the first time. The song was the Funeral of Hearts, which is their best song in my opinion. I was not into rock before, but this very…

Day 27. First Snow

This year is keeping up surprising us. Usually, first snow arrives at South Finland in October. This time, snow has delayed, which didn't ruin the first impression at all. ❄️❄️❄️

Day 25. Extreme Situations

These 2 years were tense, full of challenges, falls, and fails. Some of them were minor and hardly noticeable, while the others were immense. It is incredible and almost unbelievable what turns life can throw into your face, especially when you are ready the least. Once the pandora box is open, be prepared to the…
