Back at it again

How to start a post after a one year gap?
Not easy.

It's been a rollercoaster of emotions and experiences for the past year and a lot has changed. I haven't 'blogged' about any of it because I needed time to adjust myself, from new friends, new love to new surroundings.

I think it's best to just recap a few things because what I'm going to be writting about from now on is going to be a little different than before.

For starters, I got into collge, architecture, which was somewhat of a dream. And it's been tough. I'd even say it's kind of a love-hate relationship, where I adore what I do but it's just so challenging at times. But again, it's beautiful and I got to meet some great new people. College might be the number one reason I haven't been writting or posting pics. It's a whole new world and it's filled of responsibilities, chores, assignments...

But I missed this, a place of some kind of escape from reality, where this virtual reality lets me think about trivial things like trends and spaces for a bit.
A lot of people asked me about this blog and why I stopped and I always said I didn't fully stop and it was just a pause. And it was. WAS.


I won't be writting about things that happened in the past year,  although there would be a lot to write about in detail. So here's the short version (and some cute pics)-




The summer was great, we got to chill a lot after our final exams. I got to see Zurich with D and Venice, met some amazing new people while traveling. Then college started and I really really like it, even when there were sleepless nights and dozens of coffee mugs piling up on my desk, I can say it was worth it and still is.





New Year I spent on the lake Bled with my love G and some friends. It was a beatiful experience which also created a new chapter in my life called AirBNB. I'm probably the last person on Earth to discover it, but it opened a door to some new ideas on traveling.



And now it's 2016 and there are really big things going on. With college being a great part of my life now, most of my posts will probably, at some point, center on spaces and interiors or just things that put emphasys on creativity. Who read this blog before knows how much I love everything there is to be about clothes, styles and posting pics about what I wore, but there just isn't enough time for me to do some of those things anymore.

A project for college

So I'm back at this again, this therapy of mine, writting and posting pictures, with the same idea as before- what spikes my interest, I'll write about. If you like it- read it, or just scroll to see the pics. If not, doesn't matter.

Have a great weekend and I really can't wait to write some more. xx


pictures are in order from: Venice, Graz, Lošinj, Zurich, Rovinj, Bled and Zagreb

Travel diaries: Salzburg

Do you ever wish to just escape reality and chill for a day, far from home and responsibilities?
Few weeks ago my friend M and I made a random decision to go on an one-day trip to Salzburg to see the advent fair. The whole charm to it was the spontaneity. 
For 24 hours we were able to forget all about school and problems, it was just us and the trip. Our first stop was Hellbrunn castle; a former summer house for the royalty. When I was a kid we used to go there in Easter, and I remember that the castle had a garden some prince once designed as a prank park- with gorgeous statues and murals that would spray water on its viewers. I remember there was a great big table with stone seats and when I sat on it the chair sprayed me and water started bursting from the top of the table. The guy had class even 300 years ago haha. The water park was closed cause it was cold, but we still got some time to stroll and visit the stands.







Later we continued to Salzburg. Imagine a city of 150 000 citizens with 200 000 tourists. Yep. Crowded is a euphemism in this case. Nevertheless, we got so see some cool, festive things.
They got stands to match their crowds; it's impossible to get through them all. 




I'm not that into the whole commercial stuff, but I gotta admit they outdone themselves in decor. Firstly, the architecture itself is too cute, and they have this law that stores must have metal signs like centuries ago, so you're walking through narrow streets full on signs, holly, lights and ribbons. 



And while my friend had a mission to shop till drop, the nerdy side of me was drooling over the architecture. But seriously. It's all very old and pittoresque, the facades are all in different colors and styles. Imagine it with all the lights- seems surreal.









If you're ever going to Salz, there's a place you need to see. It's a shop where you can buy hand painted real eggs. There are hundreds of thousands of them and each piece is a small piece of art (matches the price). I was sooo obsessing over little black Balmain eggs (that's how I called them). I didn't buy them though, they wouldn't go with our decor at home. 
Every egg is practically unique and it takes you so much time to pick out the best.





It was cool and tiresome- we walked for 8 hours straight. But the weather was nice and not as cold as we were expecting. We were so bundled up with sweaters and coats and hot during the day, but it got pretty chilly when the Sun went down- so keep that in mind if you're ever going there.




Wearing Zara coat, pants and knitted sweater, Guess bag, Buffalo shoes and vintage hat.

It was so so nice to escape reality for a moment and just chill. We strolled, had coffee, ate pastries and just enjoyed ourselves. It was a laugh and I'd do it again anytime. Visit Salz, be prepared for rows of tourists and don't forget to eat some Sacher cake :)
Will write soon, xx
