Look closely

See those trees? They glow for me today.. and for you.

Patikkamatka

Matkalla tuli vastaan niin vapaana juoksevia hevosia ihan kosketusetäisyydellä kuin lehmiäkin. Se niiden sonni vähän röhisi uhkaavasti, mutta mentiin nätisti ohi. Yhdellä tilalla näky toisella puolen semmosta uomaa tuhat ja kaks kilipukkia. Kauhia kilinä ja kanojen kaakatus. Mijasissa pidettiin lounastauko, valkosipulileipää ja vettä. Eksyttiinkin ruhtinaallisesti yhdessä kohdassa mut oli ihan tosi kivaa kuunnella reggaee yhdessä ja kattella aivan upeita maisemia appelsiini-, oliivilehtojen yllä.

May Day

I would change the finnish Vappu to this celebration ANYday. Fuengirola’s international feria is absolutely adorable. All the countries are represented in the back of the feria-area in peñas. In the actual market area there’s a tivoli. In Finland they serve karelian pies, finnish beer Karhu, cider and sausages. In Mexico Corona and folk dance. In Dominician Republic people dance latin dances all day all night. In China you can see noodles hand made and eat them in a wok. In Palestina you get the best falafels! Ecuador is all about Caipirinha and Mojito. In Canarian islands you hear disco and on the street see scottish pay backpipemusic live. Wau!

What is Fuengirola?

For me. Cars, metal, steel, rubber... and palm trees.

I guess they loved it ;)

Color color flash flash

I met some nice people in this club. I can't remember any names, I didn't get any info to contact them and I really wish I did. Beautiful it was anyhow. Flashing lights, smiling faces. Some a little high, maybe.

Pilko suuret ongelmat pieniksi, hio pienet pölyksi ja puhalla taivaan tuuliin. Onnistuuko teiltä? Ongelmat voi pilkkoa pieniksi ja osan hioa pölyksi, mutta taivaan tuuliin puhaltaminen vie aikaa.

Valencia, Spain.

Hello darling!

Somewhere after Cordoba going to Valencia, Spain.

Beton lady with sinewy figured,

These same figures were in Helsinki just a few years back. Of course we had to great the same one that I took a picture with back then :)

Arte Ronda

Travelling alone is somehow religious. I spent the whole Saturday in Ronda, not alone though even if I started the travel alone from Fuengirola. Everything went well in the bus until Marbella. Then the route went to the mountains and from there it was 1½h of nausea and delight. The views were absolutely breathtaking! I knew I was on a big mountain but I could only see a lot of smaller hills. They were beautifully flat from their tops, so you could walk kilometres on them seeing everything around. Some of them were covered with trees. The higher we got there was also hills with no trees at all but bright white/grey rocks – but the tree-covered hills as well.

The balcony of Mijas

There before the sea is my current home town, Fuengirola. Really gotta love the views with everything you can ask for: blue sky, the sea and the mountains. Even a tiny bit of forest.

Send me rubberboots!

My socks have been wet since I arrived to this bloody city. The streets are absolutely flooding all day. My laundry doesn't dry because of the high precentage of H2O in the air. My bathroom stays wet for hours after I've finished showering. Well, at least the grass should get green after this!

Avenida Finlandia, Fuengirola, Spain.

Good Morning!

I'm not sure if that is creepy or nice. Was meant to be a greeting, I think :)

Concepción Arenal, Barcelona, Spain.

Salsa, friends and icecubes the size of..

.. a ½ litre bottle. Naike didn't have icecube forms so this clever girl some coolers in bottles!

Tuulispää,

Sometimes it's windy also inside the car!

Kukkuu

He is kind as a little lamp. Behind my brother (note the red nail polish.. yes I admit I had something to do with it). In front a lamb called Milla that my friends bought as a replacement when I went to Italy.
