The great castle of Turku

Good evening for everybody!

My favourite city in Finland is definitely Turku. In my opinion the Finland's old capital city, even after the great fire in 1827, is the most significant city in Finland.

I made a visit at the castle of Turku some time ago. I actually have been there before but not for a very long time and I was extremely amazed by the grandeur and how massive everything was.

I love the atmosphere in castle that oozes the antiquity and let's the stories, I've heard about the old castle, become true. It keeps so much history in it and when you go in, you can feel, how the historical walls, roofs and floors give you a huge amount of strength and feeling that you're a part of the significant history of your motherland.

I think this topic is really worth knowing.

Here below you can make yourself familiar with one of Finland's cultural treasures.

Piece of paper

Here is some drawings I've made lately. 

In my opinion, I'm not a good drawer but I like to do it.

Our cat definitely is interested in the picture in her own way. :D

Christmas has come to the town

Christmas is absolutely my favorite celebration durin the year. I love to decorate home for the Christmas and take a seet on my bed. It's one of the best things to listen to the Christamas radio, be surrounded by beautiful decorating pillows and watch the candels burn. I've done this so many times this year! (:

A tiny snowfall

In October here in Finland came the first snow. In the pictures you can see what it was like at my grandparents garden. 

Now it's December the 25th but there is no any snow. It has been a horrible weather already many weeks: lots of storms and rain. We shall hope the weather will be better and that it would come a real winter.
