Cherry flowers

 

Cherry flowers are so pretty. These pictures are weeks old, but they are just so nice. Have a great week!

How to spend a perfect summer day?

There's not any better way to spend a hot summer day than finding an island where you've never been. Eating some good salad in the island's small restaurant and after that finding a quiet bay to read a book for the rest of the day.

My city, Helsinki

Amazing time-lapse film of Helsinki. This beautiful city is the one, where I live.

On Friday we had our office's Christmas party. I don't know, why I always get so mixed feelings about that kind of parties. Evening was made of OK food, bizarre restaurant, serious conversation, crazy conversations, bad singing, white wine and a bus driver who let me travel for free to home. 

Task of the weekend: sleeping

Now, when the polar night has taken all of us, it's difficult to see the sun light even here in Helsinki. It's especially rare, if you happen to sleep until afternoon. It seems that I have had some lack of sleep lately and probably the jet lag is still interfering, because on Saturday and Sunday I slept until after noon. Gosh, I really don't like to spend my days sleeping, especially not at this time of the year, when you don't see any daylight.

Yesterday there was a nice little gig in Adam's: Sin Cos Tan released their first album. Today I've spent my day inside with the candle light, eating and reading. I hope tomorrow morning I'll be up a bit earlier than at noon.

Winter arrived with the wind

Autumn Helsinki

 

Kivikaupunki

Monet Helsingin ulkopuolella asuvat pitävät Helsinkiä ankeana kivi- tai betonikaupunkina, jossa on kylmä ja tuulee aina. Heidän mielestään Helsinki on harmaa, ankea eikä täällä ainakaan kasva mitään vihreää. 

Näin itsekin ajattelin (ja ajattelen välillä edelleenkin, kahdeksan vuoden jälkeen), mutta olen alkanut näkemään värejä. En tiedä onko se sitä, että aivoni tahtovat nähdä elävää ja värejä vai, että täällä niitä oikeasti on.
