Croatia - Days 3,4 and 5


Time really flies by so fast, esp. when you're having a good time!
This holiday was just what I needed, lots of sun, sea, fresh air and
many hours of sleep.
We went to newly opened Aquarium in my old hometown Sibenik
and it was such a pleasant experience.
Even though the city is small, this lovely little Aquarium can compete
with some aquariums/ Sea Lifes which I've seen around the Europe.

Also, one of these days we've played mini golf and of course I won,
just like I do every year :D
It was so much fun and I'm planning on doing it again next week.

Today we went for pizza and it was sooo delicious! One of the most
delicious pizzas I ever had!
The location of the restaurant is perfect, it's by the beach with the
perfect sea view and it has such a casual vibe that you can basically
come straight from the beach in your swimwear, grab a pizza and
go back to the beach :)

On our everyday menu is a-must-have ice cream, the Italian style one
and so far the best tasting ones are coconut, stracciatella and
yoghurt-strawberry :)

Tomorrow is the day for the cinema and Dispecable Me 2! Yay!

Outfit post - Crochet


Such a beautiful, sunny and some people would say hot day today,
but I couldn't be more happy about the heat since I live in a place
where heat rarely exists.
This morning I met with my old childhood friend and it was such a
great moment to catch up with her.

Whole afternoon was once again spent by the beach and swimming
in the sea. We also played a round of mini golf and I won :)

I'm still thinking weather to go out tonight or not, but will see how I
feel in an hour or two.

Have a great Thursday evening everyone!

I'm wearing: Sunnies - Sheriff & Cherry, Dress - Vila, Bag - Bianco,
Necklace - Zara, Ring - HOH1960, Sandals - Vagabond













Croatia - Day 1 and 2


2 days in Croatia, flew by super fast! Both days we didn't
do much, except just walking around in the city, shopping for
local food, eating my mom's home cooked meals and most
importantly, having great beach time.

I went to my favourite local jewelry designer yesterday. He always
has lots of interesting, handmade and creative necklaces, bracelets, rings...
I will take a photo of what I bought, so check out my Instagram for that.

I'm planning on meeting as many friends as possible before the
return date back home, starting today. Also, we're planning on
taking a round of mini-golf in the afternoon.

All in all, I'm loving this holiday since I can feel that my batteries have
started to recharge. :)

Turku - day 2 + Off to Summer holidays


Here're couple of photos I took two days ago, on our 2nd day in Turku.
Turku is such a lovely city with beautiful sights and buildings.
On 2nd day we went for a small shopping in the city and I found couple of
Yankee candles and one absolutely gorgeous coat which was last in it's size
and I'm so happy that I found it because it fits me like a glove and it's made of
raw silk so I'm sure that I will be able to wear it for years to come :)

For lunch we went to small and cozy restaurant Tintå which is also a very
popular place with the locals and visitors like us.
The food was delicious and I'm definitely going back there next time I'm in
Turku.

Afternoon was reserved for just laying around in the hotel room and getting
rid of hungover from the previous night :D

Evening was the time to head back to the festival site and see some more bands
play and hang around with friends.

All in all, great 2-day trip and now I'm already in Croatia and my Summer holiday
has officially started.
Can't wait to hit the beach tomorrow and swallow like tons of watermelons :D

Have a great Monday evening!

Turku - Day 1


Hello from Turku everyone!
Turku is Finland's ex capital city that is about 2 hours car ride away
from Helsinki.
I've been in Turku three times and every time it was because of Ruisrock
festival that is held annually every Summer.
This year, my main wish was to see Hurts show and oh boy, it was an amazing
show! Great band, beautiful songs and great stage presence. Audience was responding
wonderfully too, so I believe that everybody went home happy since they were one
of the last bands to play yesterday.

Before the show, we went for a stroll through the city and went to highly spoked about
Fontana cafe which was a total disappointment and I wouldn't suggest it to anybody.
It was supposed to be the cafe with the best "quick" food in town, but it was totally not
worth the money. We waited for 40 minutes to get our meals and the food didn't taste
that good as we expected.

Afterwards we went for a short walk by the river and I snapped couple of photos because
the views were somewhat peaceful and inspiring :)

Today will be all about just taking it easy, walking around the city, eating hopefully nice
food and spending time with my sister and family.

Have a great Saturday !!!
