Hello blog

It has been a while since my previous blog post. At times I have been missing blogging and that is why I will try to activate my blog again. I am not a super big fan of writing texts, so I will be keeping the blog mostly focusing on pictures. 

I also do not want to label my blog to a certain type; ie. lifestyle/fashion/beauty blog. I want to keep it sort of as a diary and post whatever I feel like. And that is actually what I miss the most about blogging. Having it as a diary you can go back to when ever you like (helps my bad memory as well :P). I will be posting about miscellaneous things I do and like, and I will not take any pressure on posting as this only is a hobby of mine.

Currently I am two weeks in to my annual leave and it is raining outside. So what better time to restart this blog then with some pictures from Croatia!

Croatia snapshots

Oh god...the amount of pictures that was on my camera and phone was huge. I just finished looking them through. I came back from a 30 degrees hot Croatia on Saturday. Even though the weather sucks here I am happy that I am safely home. As a slightly flight scared person the flight back home was not so smooth... Anyway, I thought I'd share some pictures from this amazing trip.

We had a week at our catamaran in Croatia. We were six persons this time and we sailed to different places in the Croatian archipelago. The weather was great! Over 30 degrees during the day time, not much colder during night. At first the heat felt exhausting, but I got used to it very fast. Especially when you can basically jump in to the ocean whenever you feel like it. I enjoy the sun a lot, and I freeze easily, so this climate is perfect for me.

This was my cabin for the week. There was a few sleepless nights due to windy weather conditions, but otherwise I was very content with my little hub.

This picture from above was from a bay we stayed at one night. We parked (?) our yacht at a buoy and took the small motor boat to shore. We ate at a local restaurant with this amazing view. 

Sometimes we stopped at a bay or in the middle of the ocean to take a swim in the very salty water. This turquoise water was amazingly clear and warm. 

This small town called Port of Vis was one of my favourite places we visited. It is an old greek town and the buildings are amazing. We stayed here for one night.

Next stop we made in a bigger city was close to the port of Hvar. There was no space to park our boat at the harbour, so we left it a bit further away and took a boat taxi to town. This place was amazing! Huge yachts, hot climate, good ice cream and lovely views. 

Below are some random pics from different locations. Last time we were in Croatia we saw dolphins, which I was hoping to do this time as well, but this time we did not have luck.

Our home harbour in Sibenik is close to Trogir which is a Unesco world heritage site. It is beautiful with its historic culture. We spent our last night there eating good food and enjoying the last hours of our trip.

Vilnius, Lithuania

If you are ever thinking about traveling to a nice city in Europe, fairly cheap and a lot of history and culture, I can recommend Vilnius. Tallinn is the only Baltic city I have ever visited, so Vilnius was new for me. And it is lovely. It is a city with a lot of history and things to see. You could see a lot of young street musicians, a lot of churches, since there are 50 of them.

This was our hotel, Hotel Artis. Very nice in old town and close to the heart of the city.

This is the Cathedral of Vilnius, it had another church inside of it.

These two pictures below were from the smaller church inside the Cathedral. Very beautiful. Some random tourists just came in and started singing there :) 

This small square on the ground is  a wish square. You are supposed to stand on int, turn around three times and wish, then your wish will come true! Guess if I did it? :P

Such beautiful houses and streets. They were selling Amber everywhere and in every form!

Over this river was a bridge over to the Republic of Uzupio, a bohemian neighborhood that declared it's independece in 1997.

Some art on the walls.

We went to have dinner in a resort area in a restaurant called BoraBora. Very exotic :D
