Day at the City

We spent most of our time in athens 
and although is a big city, as nature lovers, 
we can always manage to find green spots 
to relax and enjoy. 
And when we do, we surely have fun!!!

FRUIT WATER

We all know the benefits of water in our bodies. Mix it with fruits and you have the new trend, the fruit water. It's easy to make and it's healthy and hydrating. Lemon, orange, apple, blueberries, citrus, cucumber, cinammon and mint are just some of the things you can use to create your own fruit-water. Just cut the fruits you want in slices, put them in a bottle, add some flavors like mint if you like, then add the water, leave it in the fridge for at least 2 hours (the ideal though, is to leave it for the whole night.) and it's ready. You can take some ideas from the photos below.

 And here it is, our own first try, after almost 4 hours in the fridge:

We ♥ Jeans!!!

The jean jacket is one of the most beloved pieces of wardrobe. It is timeless, wearable in all seasons and you can combine it with infinite ways.

     Do it like Miranda!!!

They usually lend a casual vibe to any outfit, but they can also be dressed up a little bit.

I Love Pastel!

The pastel clothes will be the trend of winter. They give a sense of romance and childishness.      Check out some tips on how to wear the right clothes in pastel shades. 

1.Wear baggy coats, skirts and sweaters in pastel colors.

2. Pastel compensate and give color to the dull palette of autumn. Combine with camel, gray and white to have a harmonious combination. 

3. They also fit perfectly with nude shades. 

4. Choose one bag in dark green or gray.

5. Gold accessories will give a rougher tone to your style in contrast to the romance of pastels. 

6. Finally, oxford-type shoes are the right choice for your romantic pastel look.

FINLAND

Finland is a European country that is borded by Sweden in the west, Norway to the north, Russia to the east and Estonia to the south and is a country woth visiting.

NORTHERN LIGHTS

The most amazing natural phenomenon, the Northern lights, takes place there and it's something really unique. The thrill of witnessing the Aurora Borealis is, for a lot of people, an one in lifetime experience. The dancing of those lights up in the sky will leave you amazed.

 FOODS

In Finland, you can taste anything you want nowadays, although some finnish foods like Karjalanpiirakka (pastries), Korvapuusti (the translation may be sapped ears, but in fact they are delicious cinammon buns), Mustikkapiirakka (along with other berrie-pies) are worthy your time.

DESIGN

 Another thing that you will surely love about Filand is the Finnish design that literally follows you constantly everywhere and you cannot forget it even when you're gone. The main characteristic of this country is nature, many lakes and many forests at the same time. So, the big inspiration there is nature. Finns, have found a way to co-operate in peace with it and I think that's what make their design so unique. As the famous Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto once said:

• Nothing is ever reborn but neither does it totally disappear. And that which has once been born, will always reappear in a new form.
  

LANDSCAPES

 

Nature plays a big role in Finnish landscapes and one visit can stay in your heart forever. Places like Ytö island, the village of saramo, Kilpisjärvi etc will take your breath away

MUSIC

 

And last but not least the famous heavy metal finnish bands like Nightwish, Apocalyptica, The Rasmus and HIM are a good reason to visit this country.
