С новым годом меня!

It's my birthday! It's my birthday! 

Gonna spend my money (c) 

С новым годом меня! 

Редко я делаю селфи, но сегодня можно. Сегодня мне опять шестнадцать, по традиции, ежегодно. Ну ладно-ладно, не шестнадцать, это слишком. Пускай будет двадцать шесть- такой возраст, когда уже вроде бы и фитиль не так сильно горит в жо да и ума немного набралось:) Двадцать шесть- это мне доходит :D 

Как-то невольно задумываюсь каждый год перед этим днем- а что я успела за эти двадцать шесть?! Это только меня этот вопрос мучает или есть еще такие как я? 

Что там было? Коня на скаку и горящий дом? Кони то вечно какие-то скачут у меня по жизни и дом я пока не подожгла, хотя не скрою, попытки были. Не, погодите, это не из той оперы. 

Дерево посадить - посадила, если считать лаванду за дерево. 

Сына родила, но все еще в процессе роста. Жду вот, когда дозреет яблочко. Есть еще одно яблочко, вообще-то, запасное, но то не сын :D 

И что там осталось по списку? Дом построить- ну тут я пас, эт я только если стенку покрасить в зеленый или таки поджечь хату, это у меня как-то получше получается :) 

А вообще, ребята, все очень и очень хорошо. Для двадцати то шести:D 

Спасибо огромное, что вы у меня есть, мои друзья, и спасибо, что вы все еще со мной :)

С днем рождения меня! :P 

The reason why I am so crazy :P

One very small fact about me :D

I see things in different way, at different angle.

My world is always upside down and this is one of the reasons why I'm not normal, why I'm weird and why I'm crazy :P 

Yoga is my passion. I tried it first about 5 years ago 

and since then I can't stop :) 

My favorite balances.  I can do it anytime and everywhere :) 

Sometimes meditation :) 

It's quite interesting way to have a look inside your heart, to free your mind and to get rid of all thoughts :) 

And balances again and again:) 

While you're doing head- or handstand the blood circulation is changing increasing oxygen saturation  (and not only oxygen) in your brain which can be very useful for brain cells :)

Meditation combined with breathing techniques

 can give an amazing stress relief :)

Try it and you'll get addicted to yoga :) 

P.S. Sorry for pics of my bum in this post :D

Lovely Afternoon in Cawsand

Cawsand Village, Cornwall

Do you want to fall in love with Cornwall? If you do- you should really see this small village on coast with amazing beach. 

Just catch the ferry from Mayflower Steps in Plymouth, Barbican. Enjoy 20 min sail across the bay and you are there. 

Cawsand ferry runs every 30 min every day. Even if you are a bit late- just have a cup of coffee on Barbican:)

My favorite little red ferry sails across our bay to Cawsand :)

This lovely colorful old bus stop will meet you right on Cawsand beach :) 

Cawsand village is situated on the Rame Peninsula which is called as Forgotten Corner of Cornwall :) 

There are actually two twin villages- Cawsand and Kingsand and it's basically 10 minutes walk between those two with lovely cafeterias and small pub on your way  :) 

Guess who you can find in the water ? :)

Usually I just sat there with a good book and enjoy my time at this peaceful place:)

There is no big history at this place, except the fact that  Cawsand Ford and 10 guns above the village, which were covering Plymouth breakwater in 1779, but unfortunately I don't know much about it. 

 However there are very nice people living there and amazing view, wonderful narrow streets and street signs in Cornish :)

I hope you will have a lovely day in Cawsand:)

Palma De Mallorca

Palma de Mallorca, part 1.

Hey folks! 

It's been quite shocking week, long and tiring and no way I'm going to discuss any politic news on here :) Despite the fact that Britain decided to leave EU- we are going today to one of EU countries and it's going to be Spain. I want to share with you one of my latest trips- wonderful week in Palma De Mallorca :)

Mallorca - one of lovely Balearic Islands in Spain. Palma is probably the biggest city and very busy tourist center. As I know it was founded about 123 BC. 

In 17th-19th centuries it's been pirates heaven:)  I'll tel you about pirates a little bit more in my next post about my trip to Mallorca :) 

Old city streets are absolutely adorable. I.m totally in love from now and forever :) 

And of course I've found an old-old cathedral to wonder around :D 

So here it is- Palma Cathedral. The Cathedral of Santa Maria of Palma .

It was founded in 1230 and finished only by 1587. Not going to tell you much about it this time :)

I'll let you enjoy the view :)

Just need to mention one little detail which makes this cathedral absolutely unique -  my favourite Antoni Gaudi spent about 13 years working on this amazing place. In 1901 Gaudí was invited to take over the restoration project and unfortunately left a bit earlier than it was planned, right after having an argument with the contractor of the restoration project. 

Mallorca sandy beaches are definitely in top sandy beaches in all Europe. Then longest is probably Platja de Palma - about 4,6km long, has all possible facilities , and if you are planing beach holiday - it could be ideal place for you and your family :)  

Adorable old streets in old-old- and very old cities- is my passion :) I love those beautiful old streets full of memories in every city where I was- streets of old Tallinn and Helsinki, Stockholm and Kiev. Old streets in Greece, France and Spain are so magnificent and full of mystery that I can walk there for hours. 

Road cycling is very popular in Majorca. An international race for professional cyclists. Professional cyclists from all over the world comes here to train for races, championships. Our hotel where we stayed, was absolutely fully booked  by professional cyclists team from Germany and actually I was very impressed to find out that they were training for Iron Man World Championship 2016 :) 

And of course food! That what makes any holiday so enjoyable :)  Spanish paella and sea food, tapas, sausages and cheese  - that's all I need :) 

And if you really want to enjoy all that- you should definitely pop in to

 Mercat de l'Olivar- stunning market place of Balearic cuisine.

Lots of places to see, lots of 

things to do and lots and lots of sunshine to catch :D

One night in .. London?! :)

One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster

The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free.

:D

One night in London actually.  Late April.  

I love London. I even lived in London for a short time and I loved it.

 Big and beautiful. Busy and noisy. Full of contrasts. Every time so different. 

While having a walk all colors are changing so quickly:)

No need to tell you historical facts about London, Westminster, Parliament or Big Ben. I'll just show you a little bit of it :)

Good old Big Ben is absolutely stunning from any side :D 

First time I saw it about 12 years ago and since then I can't live without visiting The Elizabeth Tower or St. Stephen's Tower (depends how you like it ) at least twice a year :)

Little people in big city :) 

Giant in Cornwall :)

St Michael's Mount 

Cornwall. Magical place. Lots of history, Fantastic Jurassic coast. Amazing nature:) I'm absolutely in love with this place.

So yes, today we are going to Cornwall again :)

It's not the best weather to go there but still worth to see it:)

 "The grey rock in a wood" that how it sounds in Cornish language. So it's mysterious St Michael's Mount, one of tidal islands where you can walk to from mainland.

There was an old monastery build in the 8th – early 11th centuries but been destroyed in earthquake. And rebuild again. And met tsunami after Lisbon earthquake. 

Lisbon earthquake was so powerful that sea level gone 2 meters up in 10 minutes. And it was changing up and down for 5 hours! Wow that's a lot! 

Today it's a part of National Trust, amazing museum, little souvenir shops and cafeterias :) 

There is one legend that castle was build on island where lived an 18-foot giant named Cormoran with all his treasures. He was big and angry and people from village was so tired and scared of him so they found a hero - Jack, who killed the giant and when he came back home everyone called him

 "Jack the Giant Killer".

And it's always good to have a nice cup of tea with an excellent view :)
