Tampere

United Kingdom

(in Europe)

Worth visiting!

One down, three to go!

I totally loved England and London, but the truth is: I’ve only seen a miniscule part of this wonderful country and I will not settle for that! :> I want to see many more places in England and then I’d also love to explore Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as well. I’m not even done with London yet, no sir no!
Can’t wait to go back! ♥

Piccadilly Circus

Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

I didn’t find anything too interesting here, but it was good to see the place anyways. :) At least I now know what it’s like.
And I got some pretty nice photos there, of the crowds and the buildings and stuff.

Natural History Museum

Worth visiting!

Went back today to see the rest of it

and still enjoyed it immensely.
I actually feel like going back for a third time, but maybe I’ll have to skip it. :’D
I just love this place, the building itself is already so beautiful and then there’s so many fascinating things inside. Sigh~ ♥

The Science Museum

Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

The museum was a pretty cool place. :)
I especially enjoyed the space and aeroplane sections and all the little old artifacts.
I was there for about two hours and still didn’t manage to see everything. :D (Maybe I’m just slow, ehe.) And I was constantly running into more and more school kids, there were like billions of them there. (They’re actually very adorable with their uniforms.)

Hyde Park

Worth visiting!

Hyde Park

I. Love. This. Place.
I knew right after the first visit that I was going to go to this park many times again. Went for a long walk there tonight, on my own. I saw the sun set and everything was just so beautiful and peaceful.

(Also went to see Buckingham Palace again, that place looks so pretty at night, with the stars above it and all the city lights around it.)

Natural History Museum

Worth visiting!

"Daddy, daddy, will it hurt me?" "Do you think it's alive?" "No..."

♥ ♥ ♥
One of my absolute favorite places so far, most definitely.
Just not the best place to lose your mate in. Only managed to see half of it, I’m going back to see the rest later, no doubt about it. (I really could spend days and days there, it was so great.)

Camden Town

Worth visiting!

Camden

Loved loved loved this place. ♥
So colourful and full of life and beautiful and cool. :>
Have to go back there tomorrow or some other day, since we didn’t buy anything on our first visit. There were some pretty clothes (amongst other things) that really caught my eye at the market.

Platform 9 3/4

Worth visiting!

King's Cross

Silly muggles have obviously lost my acceptance letter at the post office, otherwise I wouldn’t have had any problems getting onto the platform and to the train to Hogwarts. Shame~ (and I guess I was late anyways.)

The Great Adventure

In exactly two weeks from now, I shall just have arrived to Stansted airport in London. n____n
We’ll be spending six nights/days in London (we’re staying here) and after that we’ll head north, to Newcastle. We might also visit some other places, but those two cities are the guidelines for our trip.
I haven’t really made any detailed plans for the trip yet; I was thinking that I should go to the library and loan out some travel books on England.
I guess I should also start thinking about what I should take with me. :D It’s not a very long trip, would have loved to go for more than just 12 days, but I think this’ll be good too.
Oh, it’ll be so good! Can’t wait!

Pohjois-Satakunta

(in Finland)

Worth visiting!

Home sweet home

The first 20 years of my life I’ve lived here in beautiful Pohjois-Satakunta (I was born in Jämijärvi and then two years ago I moved to Karvia)
and now I’m moving to a big city. o _ o We’ll see how this country girl manages.

But whatever happens, this place will always be my home.
