Monday: The week starts with a morning call from the nursery that my baby has a scarlet fewer and I needs to be collected. Evening spent at a drafty doctors reception. Tuesday: My hubby and I are looking after the baby for the day whilst maintaining full time jobs hoping we don’t get fired. Wednesday:…
When you buy a cheap flight to Norway
When you go on Ryanair website and find a super cheap flight tickets to Norway… And then you feel like you need to get a loan after a few day stay… I have learnt what everyone keeps saying. Damn, Norway is expensive! But the forests, fjords and rye bread are worth it. … well till…
37 pink bodysuits later
What I planned to do in the last 6 months naively thinking that being a full time mom is like a holiday: Trade Forex most of the daysTravel to the USACheck my emails on a daily basis.Finally get a tan and not just weird patches that I normally do get. What I have managed in…
Two Little Feet
Well it took rather long to snuggle those two chubby little feet… Three years precisely. One miscarriage that I did not feel I could share with anyone for a very long time. 4 months of eating pretty much only bread rolls and apple sauce as others were enjoying lasagne, paella and all sorts of other…
Denmark Gave Me a Warm Hug
Denmark felt cozy and familiar. The cool breeze. The modernity and the colourful Nyhavn, even the storm just before we left for the airport that felt like Denmark was telling us not to leave. The best moments in life usually have something to do with food.For me it was the moment I have bitten into…

Then it became harder to find the right words and the doctors confirmed the diagnosis. Then we have done research and looked for…
When I Did Absolutely Nothing
I did have plans. Laundry, invoices, car clean, bunch of emails. What have I done? Absolutely nothing. But I managed to drink a lot of coffee, finished a book, took a nap and went out for mussels and fries. I guess all the chores will have to wait till tomorrow.
To my (less than) dear friend
You have been following me for years and I have mixed feelings about you. You keep me up at night spending ours sorting out my wardrobe because you don’t let me sleep and then let me bang my head on a desk when I doze off in the day. You leave me confused if it…
Minsk. Are you sure?
This was the answer I got when I mentioned to my family that I would like to take them for a little trip to Belarus. A few weeks later after some research and a bit of paperwork, past the green uniformed officers with very official looking faces and using some serious magnifying glass to inspect…
Out in Manchester
It must be the tight space on this flight or the early get up at 3am this morning. I was going to write some profound and life changing but I will rather show you a few pictures instead. This is one of my favourite summer outfits for being out and about in my favourite city…
Out of Office
I have parked my car in the driveway, put my black dress and awfully painful heels in the closet, put the pizza in the oven and a box set on TV. I am out of office till tomorrow with no access to my email. In urgent cases call 911.
