Last Christmas.

Since we haven't really had the time to chat too much lately
I thought maybe it would a nice idea to show you how the
silly season went by here in sunny Australia.

Let's start with Christmas - my absolute fave holiday!


I was right into it from day one with my elfin hat from the
two dollar shop at the fresh produce markets. Ho ho ho!


My mum had sent Christmas wishes on one of my favourite
cards so this one got to hang on our wall, lucky thing.


We had plentiful of food all day every day. Here some Finnish
chocolates, dried fruit and nut, ginger breads and green gooey
ballsy thingamajigs. Oh and a very random Subway cookie too!


Some decorations..


..and more...


..and more food.

Bliss!

If this isn't the cutest thing then I don't really know what is!
I found it here. Not that I am getting married anytime soon
but I did notice how close to your neck of the woods this lady
is as she seems to be based in California. You are all such
whimsical little people down (up?) there. Maybe it runs in the
water..

Love,

[To the Sea]

This is a docudrama about a boy and his father.

About love, loss, and the sea.

Simply done, yet very satisfying in a way.

It's a meditation on life.

When you have the time... check it out.

Happy 2011!

Here's to...

... more love

... traveling

... more meeting new lovely/awesome people

... friendship

... happiness and good health!

Cheers!

love always,

Somewhere (Directed by Sofia Coppola

I'm beginning to really like Sofia Coppola and her film style.

The trailer above is her latest movie--can't wait to see it!

Thanksgiving 2010

We decided to go away for Thanksgiving.

Initially, the plan was just to go to Oregon-Washington state.

We ended up in Vancouver, Canada and beyond.

We strolled. Ate. Laughed. Relaxed.

Interesting and a charming City.

Everything looked new, architecture-wise.

And the people were great.

Shops and boutiques were everywhere.

We ate in-between our destinations.

This was at Memphis Blues.

The southern style B-b-q here was fabulous!

And yes, the cold did not deter us from getting our cold treats =).

*my family loves their ice cream.

We went to Whistler.

I wanted to go skiing but my brother wouldn't come with me =/

Canada, eh...

Jack Johnson, secrets and a few eggs.

So, last week was crazy. Just work and fun for anyone.
Luckily the weekend brought on some times that we will
not forget anytime soon. Like Jack Johnson. Live!


Everyone was looking so fabulous through my white wine
coloured eyes and the music sounded fabulous in my tired ears.


And yeah it was raining but see here, Elin barely noticed.


Although some of us were feeling a little we for wear..


..I was feeling great! So full of loving in my little heart. Yey.


We were whispering secrets to each other and I don't think
there is anything better than sitting next to your friend, leaning
over and whispering something in their ear, only to hear a giggle.


And Jack was BEAUTIFUL. So good. He donated all his ticket
profits to charity and that made our hearts beat even faster.


The day after we had some eggs on toast from the barbecue
in beach to help with the bit of wine still floating in our bellies.

Love,
