Coffee addict


Okay let’s face it. I’m a coffee addict. I don’t know what I would do without Starbucks, Costa, Nero etc. I just cannot imagine my life without them anymore. This weekend I had… 4 cups of lattes…or 5 or … I cannot even remember it! But one thing I can remember, it was totally bliss to have the first taste. I remember when I was thinking about what would I miss if I would move back to Finland someday and the answer came right away; coffee. It wasn’t cool clubs or weather, it was coffee what brought tears to my eyes.
I can easily spend 10 to 20 pounds per week just for coffee. Sometimes I try to control myself, but c’mon most of my age people spend that much money for alcohol per weekend or more, so I spend mine for coffee. It cannot be that bad?
I can be without caffeine. I know it. Actually I was without coffee two weeks couple of months ago. It was refreshing but not right for me. I love coffee and that’s it, cannot help it.

Skinny Lattes

Oh gosh! Had a amazing day in central London! The weather was nice, little bit windy, but warm and we walked through Soho, China Town to Trafalgatar square, then Covent Garden and back to Oxford Street. It was so much fun and I took finally photos like a tourist. Have to send some of them to my family, that they can finally see, “yeah I live in London and I have seen those famous places”.

 
Realized today how happy I’m right now to live in London. London’s summer is the best time of the year, winter was dark and rainy and cold, mostly because it was freezing inside! Finnish people should be so happy about their double glazing windows and warm houses.

I felt so relaxed when we sat on a Costa Café drinking skinny lattes and watching people outside. I realized that this was the life I had dream about couple of years ago. I had dreamed about cafés and restaurants, interesting conversations and friends. Okay let’s break the bubble, mostly it’s just normal life, too long working hours, jeans and messy hair, but today it was what I had dreamed about.  It was life in a metropolitan. It was love, coffee and the city.
What else could I ask for?

My first love...


Helsinki Railway station

Havis Amanda


Helsinki.
It was love at a first sight. Hungry, desperately love, like teenage lust usually is. Too many feelings to share and Helsinki did that to me and it still does. It’s home and lover in the same time. It’s fullmoon in the dark sky, when i walk to the railway station at middle of the night. It’s autumn rains, inside of the bus I can see how the lights are reflecting on puddles.

I love many places in Helsinki, many bars, many coffees, but i didn’t have enough time to go them all this week so you’re going to get - visiting tour guide - only for few.
