Tiny Getaway to Bath

Last week on Tuesday morning we took off with a train to Bath. It was my first time in there, never been and what a lovely city it is. We didn't see that much the city since I booked a two day holiday in spa, so most of the time we spent relaxing. 

But we did have time before the check in to the hotel and we found King William pub and I highly recommend it. I have never had such amazing lunch in a pub. It was worth of every penny we spent there, I could have eaten at least one more plate of each dish.

A little what we saw in Bath was the Bath Abbey, which was gorgeous I really loved it and of course we saw the river of bath and Bath crescent. That was pretty much all the sights we did see, fir the next time we left roman baths, which I definitely want to see, I've seen some photos of it and it does look gorgeous!  We did a visit for thermae bath spa, two hour spa session on top of the previous day spa hotel was pretty nice and we also got a voucher to come back for a new spa session anytime now till end of November.   








Which cities do you find worth of visiting in Uk?

Study updates

Beginning of this week I got the confirmation in February for one week I'll be off to Jena, Germany!
I will have my uni classes there in German university, it's pretty neat, but I still don't speak german! I hope soon I will understand how to produce something in german at least something, I am able to understand some written texts, but speaking it much much more complicated for me

What I've heard of Jena, it's a university city and it's second biggest city in it's region. In Jena there are about 110 000 inhabitants which 21 000 are students. 

The university where my classes will be held is called Friedrich- Schiller Universität Jena. 
The information I got now of the city, it does't seem to be that bad place, maybe I could take few extra days to travel and go to see also Berlin, since it is not that far away from Jena.

Weekend in Pohjanmaa

One week goes by too fast, especially when you are having a good time. Last Monday we had a flight to Helsinki- Vantaa airport and tomorrow we're heading back there.
But the week has been filled up with lots of fun and relax. Last Thursday we took a train to Seinäjoki and we've spent here the entire weekend.
It's actually the first time when we see the city of Seinäjoki, last time we came here only for the baptism of Aada, but now we saw lots of other things.

We went to see dogs also we saw a lots of cows and beautiful landscapes. We also climbed 20 meters high sightseeing tower in the middle of nowhere, but you were able to see everything, mostly forest, but it was pretty neat anyway!
And at last we climbed to apple trees to get some apple and now we have lots of apples for the trip back to Helsinki!

The best part was that we were able to play with Aada, change diapers, feed her, bath her and put her to sleep.

Surprise Holiday to Italy

After a busy week viewing rooms, scanning documents trying to sort out references a small brief for beginning of the month.
I got San Valentine's present in advance, tickets to Italy. One of the best presents I've gotten so far.
Unfortunately the week passed way too fast and half of the time I was sick in bed, but at least I was in Italy, eating well and watching Jane The virgin.

On the second day we did a day trip to Venice to see carnivals. That was my first time when I saw it and it was pretty amazing. All the masks, dresses and how much people put afford for that. Maybe for some people it's just something normal you do when it's time of the carnivals, but for me it was really great experience. And I love Venice anyway, this time I had even my camera with me!











And of course like always, we spent some time by the lake. On Wednesday it was really beautiful day, it felt like a spring and I was able to wear sunglasses! I really miss that weather, wish it would be nearly summer again.








Probably our next holiday destination, well let's say proper holiday destination will be Japan, Tokyo next November or spring. We just need to start doing some research and planning. 
I bet there are people who has been in Tokyo, what did you like the most and is it worth of visiting?

Sirmione & Villaggio di Borghetto

10 days goes way too fast, especially when you're on a holiday. Once again I'm back in London and back to work. I miss Italy already, hoping to get there again soon! 
My last entire day in Italy, we were on to go from morning till evening. Literally we slept all the time for the 8 days and we did go around on the last day. We woke up at 5 in the morning and I was hoping to see the sunrise, but with my luck it was really snowy on that morning so I had to forget the sunrise, but we still did go to Sirmione, which I'm really happy because it is really beautiful place 










After Sirmione we headed to Borghetto, which is small village not too far away from Peschiera, well lets say maybe about half an hour away. Borghetto is really worth of seeing, it doesn't need too much time to spend, like I said it is really small village. I would go there another time too. Unfotunately this time we went there on Monday and nearly everything was closed there, so we didn't have chance to taste tortellini in there 





I'd love to visit more places like this, in Italy or other countries, which places would be worth of visiting?
