first morningfirst morning

soundtrack: Tina Dico – Room With a View

The first morning is a slow one. The lingering cold has finally hit, so now it’s sipping tea and cold meds before (hopefully) getting to Amsterdam for a New Years Party with a friend.

Happy New Year!

plane one or two.from the landladylove

What’s more love than your friends offering to come to Holland in June to pick you up because surely all the shoes you will have bought by that time will never fit your suitcase?

Note to self: UHT milk – not a good idea. Might come out from the carton in clumps. It’s normal milk or black coffee for my lactose challenged tummy from now on. And nothing wrong with black coffee, especially with a couple m&m’s..

Yep, I am in Holland baby.

suitcase

soundtrack: Sara Genn – Surrender

Tomorrow is the last day and the last errand to run: a pile of passport photos. Then the last dinner with family, last drinks with friends. On Tuesday my flight to Holland. There’s a little travel fever. It feels good to leave now.

christmas light

soundtrack: The wombats – Is This Christmas?

Each thing crossed off my list lightens my step a little. Now (almost) everything is done and I am off for a week of Christmas holiday away from Helsinki. Then it’s time to pack my bags and head to the Hague for new adventures. I promise to blog and photograph a lot next year!

Have a very nice Christmas everyone!

December 15th

soundtrack: Tina Dico – Sacre Coeur

This week will be so busy. Need to steal some quiet morning moments.

Putting things in boxes feels strange. I am already missing my best friend. I don’t know how I will cope not talking to her everyday. The excitement is somewhere underneath waiting now. Change is the strangest thing.
