Memories from Bhaktapur Durbar Square

April 19, 2020

Fellow blogger friend over at STPA, Amanda came up with an interesting idea some time ago. She had traveled to Bhaktapur, Nepal in 1986 and wanted to share photos and talk of her experience. I on the other hand have memories of more recent times of Bhaktapur and as a native from Nepal, have a … More Memories from Bhaktapur Durbar Square

Friendly Friday: Yellow

March 27, 2020

For this Friday, one of the hosts of Friendly Friday Photo Challenge, Amanda, has come up with a fun topic. I’ve always loved yellow so the moment I saw this week’s topic, I knew I had to post my collection of yellows. Yellow is such a happy color and I have warm memories from childhood … More Friendly Friday: Yellow

Trip to Ghandruk, part 2

March 21, 2020

After skipping the actual hiking on the first day, we were ready for some walking the next day. The weather was beautiful right from the morning, so we decided to walk around the village for a bit before moving on to our next destination. Our plan for the day was to reach a viewpoint called … More Trip to Ghandruk, part 2

2019, a busy and a big year!

January 4, 2020

As is always the case this time around the year, I am in disbelief that it’s the current year, which is 2020! This makes my sister who’s born in the 2000s an adult! 😮 It’s unbelievable and scary how quickly time seems to fly. However, I had a fulfilling and a memorable 2019, so embrace … More 2019, a busy and a big year!

First snowboarding this season

December 13, 2019

Since I was away for almost 1,5 months in Nepal and Thailand, and also quite inactive in this blog for sometime due to various things going on in life, I thought a recount of a very recent snowboarding trip in the Polish mountains will push me back on to the blogging track again, which I … More First snowboarding this season

Friendly Friday Photo Challenge – Sunrise

August 5, 2019

I am a lover of the sun, the clouds and the sky, especially during the dawn and twilight hours, but given that I rarely wake up early enough for sunrise, I thought I didn’t have a single sunrise photo in my gallery when I saw Amanda’s weekly challenge on the topic. But once I typed … More Friendly Friday Photo Challenge – Sunrise

A relaxing day in Nessebar

July 25, 2019

Ever since I was a child, I found rainy days so cozy. Perfect days for hot bowls of soup, movies and skipping school 😉 Time and again I get to relive the nostalgic feelings when I can enjoy downpours outside from cozy indoors. My memory of Nesebar, a beautiful town on the Black Sea coast … More A relaxing day in Nessebar

A weekend trip exploring, relaxing and scuba diving

July 12, 2019

Few weeks ago, I went to a lake called Jezioro Ciecz in western Poland close to the German border for scuba diving. I had never been to the area before so I was looking forward to checking it out. The weather was in hot late twenties, which actually makes it pleasant to dive in the … More A weekend trip exploring, relaxing and scuba diving

A long weekend at the Polish seaside

June 28, 2019

Until I visited last week, it had been over a year since I hadn’t been to the sea. I live in a landlocked city in Poland, and the seaside is over three hours drive away. This time we did manage to go and spend some time sunbathing at the sea, and visiting the lovely Sopot … More A long weekend at the Polish seaside
