Gülhane park
Its beautiful right? Gülhane park in Istanbul Turkey is kind of like an oasis in the middle of the city, with its location beeing right smack in the city center. And the park is not just big, its huge. But do you want to know my favorite part about this specific park? You can actually use it. Even though theres people everywhere thats working in park, gardening and keeping it clean, its okey to use park. Its okey if you want to bring a picnic blanket and make it a family day. Its okey to lay on the grass and read a good book. You can actually use the park,…

Valens Aqueduct in Istanbul
This is one of all the beautiful places we passed every day duting our trip to Istanbul, Valens Aqueduct. Its huge, 29 meter high, but thats not really strange seeing as it was the major water-providing system back in the old days when capital was called Constantinopel. Beautiful right? I know I have not shown you a lot of images from our trip to Istanbul, but stey tuned, I promise you – they are comming!

The partypeople – or not!
No, I wouldnt say that we were partypeople during the trip to Nessebar. Angelica was pregnant and half way through our trip she fell ill. Just a cold, but still. She was obviouly contagious, cuz just a few days later we were all sick. The boys and I managed to keep it in check, but by the last days we were all pretty runned downand it stuck with us for a week and a half. The glamorous life huh?So we spent quite a few of our nights just chilling at either the top of the hotel looking at the view of old town Nessebar, or at the terrace of the…

The Iconic Windmill of Nessebar
The old windwill in Nessebar is one of the things that’s on top of list to see of you google Nessbar in Bulgaria. You cant find much information about it, only that its from the Bulgarian Revival area. If you are visiting the ancient UNESCO city of Nessebar, you really cant miss the old windmill since its located in between the new and old towns, so you’ll pass it on you way. Its an instagramable icon for sure and its beautiful, but more than that… its just a windmill with its rough and basic style. When you travel, do you visit the top icons of your destination? //Ann Dont forget…

Dinner at Aquamarin in old town
If you’re walking into old town Nessebar, keep to your left just by the water. just on the edge of the town. But keep your eyes to your right, and you’ll see this place. Just look for the old wagonwheels and you’ll find the restaurant Aquamarin. The view from the restaurant is amazing, just sitting there sipping some wine and watching the sun set, thats kind of magical. If you’re into that. Who am I kidding, whos not into that? The food was great, especially the seafood. But if you ask the rest of the group, the boys will probobly say that the best thing was the Guinness. That was…

Church of Saint Sophia
We are always out walking in the morning, me and my husband Jacob. Well not always, but usually. I just love walking around in the mornings, hitting the most attractive tourist sites before everyone else wakes up. We had all the time in the world to walk around and explore the ruins of the church of St Sophia, taking our pictures and enjoying the feel of the old architechture of this magical buliding from the 5th century. Just as we were finished and sat down for a cup of morningcoffee the busses with tourists arrived, but they didnt stay long. Im guessing their guided tour had them scheduled for another…

The autumn has brought us a record!
So this is what it looks like in our local surroundings, these images are taken on my way to work. The morning fog greats us every day. The leaves are turning yellow. Its getting colder and darker. And just as last year, I am struggeling with the fact that summer is over. Autumn is here, and I did not get a vote. I kind of like the autumn, nowadays, when I have an indoors job. The thing that I have a problem with is that I am not allowed on the planning committee. Atleast let me speak my mind. I dont like that it gets cold so fast, I dont…

Walk with me – old town Edinburgh, part I
Okey, so the first two images are taken from the new town point of view, just as we arrived in in Edinburgh. The rest of them are taken in the old town areas. Thats kind of the aras I love the most. New town is not new. Its from the 18th century, it was constructed between 1767 and 1890, so I would say its quite old. But that part of town is more commersial estates, so if you’re into shopping thats where you’re suppose to go. Theres other stuff to do aswell, I know that, I just like the other side of the bridge more. The medieval old town was…
