  • 50 weeks in London (1)

    As Samuel Johnson has famously said: “Sir, when a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford”. Living in London is a dream come true for me, so to not get into the busy everyday routine where I can too easily forget about all […]

  • Bits of Tallinn in photos

    Having spent the most of my summer in London this year really made me miss Tallinn. Luckily, while in Estonia last time me and Ave-Liis went for a lazy walk in the old town one afternoon and took some photos that I can now share with you.

  • Lisbon

    We have this tradition with my mom, that we go to a daughter-and-mom trip every year in the spring time. Just a short city-break for 3-4 days to relax, see a new and interesting place, go shopping, enjoy some museums, good food, music and wine and catch up with each other’s lives 🙂 We have been […]

  • Europe’s Political Economy by John Mauldin and George Friedman

    John Mauldin is a leading financial analyst, New York Times best-selling author and pioneering online commentator. George Friedman is an American political scientist, author and CEO of Stratfor, a private intelligence and forecasting company. I recently saw a very good video on the European Crisis that gave a really simple overview of the root causes […]

    I do love traveling, as you can imagine. I even love all the hassle involved: from booking the hotels to planning all the days in detail to packing. So I thought I will share some of my tips of how to prepare for a perfect trip. After buying the tickets to the destination, the next […]

  • Christian Louboutin

    My post this time is inspired by the foremost French footwear designer Christian Louboutin, whose exhibition I visited just a short while ago in the Design Museum (in London). The exhibition itself was amazing so I recommend everybody to go and visit, while it is on show (until 9th of July 2012). The exhibition room […]

  • Joe and the Juice in London

    I found this amazing juice bar/cafe  in London, called Joe & The Juice. They offer amazing juices, freshly made in front of you 🙂 What a dream… I missed it so much!!! (We do not have a juice press here in England). So I had a small cup (which is quite big actually 🙂 of […]

  • Simple lasagne recipe

    Until quite recently I thought that making lasagne is very time consuming and complicated, so I rather made Pasta Bolognese, pretty much the same isn’t it?! Anyway I discovered this simple lasagne recipe by Anni Arro and thought I would give it a try. The recipe is very simple and the result is something much […]

  • Lilli Jahilo fashionshow

    I was in Estonia for couple of weeks during the Easter and now have loads of posts lined up about different events and places. As always I forget myself, when in Estonia: it seems I have so much to do and still manage to do so little. Now looking back, it seems I managed at […]

  • Leisure Society with Agyness Deyn

    I am a big theatre lover, but had not managed to visit a proper theater in London until quite recently. And it was  quite exciting 🙂 I actually got the idea when reading a fashion magazine. They wrote about a supermodel, Agyness Deyn, once dubbed the new Kate Moss, who had an astonishing career going, […]
