Amsterdam and Warsaw in Pictures

The ones who are following me on Instagram already have seen that I escaped Milan for a week to go for work to Amsterdam and Warsaw.
However tried to capture some nice moments of the city and places so I can share with you guys and if you have some questions or need tips - let me know! :)

Flower market

Vondel park - an amazing place where I went running every day
Check the pictures of the place here! so lovely, right?



restaurants there had really nice Windows

 

YES! that's chocolate! not only Belgians are famous with their chocolate and arty creatiosn but also Dutch! and this evilness was right next doors of my hotel! luckily so was the park!

the typical scene! :) of bicycles, city canal and the typical buildings.the architecture was really nice. No skyscrapers and everything semed so natural and just fitting in the scene perfectly.

Santa Claus? :D well that is something I didn't expected to see in end of May!

Such a cheesy picture, but couldn't help myself! i think it was a must in Holland! :D

 
 
this was something strange! even for me

 
the view to RAI exhibition center where we went for a fair

a family scene. everyone is going aroudn there with bicycles.even when it is raining!


kind a strange to see this kind of museum in the heart of the city. well but when you realise you are at Red Light district and are surrounded by (mostly) men and coffee shops, it starts making sense.

City by night looks even more mysterious and charming than in a day light. so definitely MUST visit! I hope I will as well. this time I had no time to see anything, as were there for a work. but definitely want to come back there!
p.s this is something really typical to dutch. the "blue works"! looks Amazing on the tableware! ^_^
 
 
WAWA for Warsaw! :) part II
 
That's me at Loius Vuitton Warsaw store! which from outside looks like a big, monogram LV travel case.
 
the weather was splendid, hot and sunny so people were getting in Summer mood.

29th of May is an national Holiday in Poland, so everything was close. as religious, orthodox related festivity than tehre were a lot of religious activities around the city in all churches.

while strolling down the main Street to go to the old town I saw 2 weeddings. where both, the newley weds, were waiting outside an vintage cars after the ceremony.

 it was almost like a MoonWalking bear from the awarness test. the ones who hasn't seen it. check the video here! :) this time it was a Polish panda! so waiting a new youtube video.
a medievale aura 

old town

some typical figurines made of wood


one of the main parks in the city center

a really lovely, treasure Island type of place-bar at the main city square. called Bondi (from the famous Bondi beach in Australia. one of my top destinations in my To-Travel-List and home of loads of surfers!). this place speciality is an watermelon cocktails! MUST try it!
 
 
so this was my trip in few pictures!

California girls

Weekends are my happy days! indeed, this weekend was sooo nice - perfect weather, sun catching, vintage-charity market attending, hanging out with friends and discovering new, nice places and of course get some new snapshots ^_^ so this time I hit the streets with Sara to do some lil' shopping and get some lunch.
we went to this lovely place called California Bakery, here in Milan. MUST try this when you are in the city! they have this charming atmosphere and really nice interior -  place where food is made with love and served together with a cup of Café Americano (the American style coffee). they have cupcakes (to see the cupcakes, check out my Instagram)  and amazing bagels, great soup and delicious cakes and, and top of that nice staff. :)
so here are some pictures from California bakery at Via  Larga( outside terrace) and streets of Milan.

 
mm the food smile


 It was a perfect day to put on my new, vintage flower shorts from Beyond Retro, Stockholm. I already wrote about this adorable vintage clothing store, so can check out the entry and tips here.

Inspiration du jour!

Inspiration is something I need more than air to start, to continue or to finish something! however, if I am inspired I will start and finish without stopping/pausing/napping till I will be done and satisfied with my result - whatever it will be! and to help to get best of me I sometimes need some inspiration! and pictures helps a lot! so here is some of my today's inspirations! hope it will inspire or just will make you dream/smile/ visualize and enjoy as well!

As my motto goes: Smile! because there is NO reason not to!
the sunny weather makes me dream of Summer and all the nice things envolved



mmmmm j'adore! ^_^

DO it! they inspire more to achieve more!

indeed!
 
Lately I have been pretty obsessed with gym and running to get ready for the bikini season, so this kind of things helps me keep going and motivates me to keep on struggling for better results! and the times when I feel it's getting too hard or I want to give up, or just be lazy I remind myself, WHY I started this at first place! Don't give up!

DONLOAD IT and fill it out!
 
Avalon in the Northern Beaches/Pittwater area of Sydney
Stunning place I would love to visit one day myself. check out the description here! can't wait to have my vacations at the sea! whatever sea/ocean as long as it is water!
Pirates!
 Yes, lately I dream of becoming a pirate! D: or at least have a pirate boat! hehehe don't know! it sounds like a fun idea! if not for being a part of Caribbean pirate team with Jack Sparrow than at least to make themed party! :) guess this obsession is mostly because of my friend's last year birthday party where we had a picture with a Captain Morgan :)

 love this picture with my blondes :) xx

So the only thing left to do is to start planning the route, make some maps, save some money and get some premium company to share this adventure with me! :)
I already have some experience in conquering Brazil and it's mountains in Chapada Diamantina.. check it out here :) so this could be like an ultimate challenge!
CAN'T WAIT! really excited!
