Very warm hello from Greece!
I mean it, because here during a day the temperature goes up to +30 degrees..
Still it doesn't feel that bad as it sounds, because we have nice north wind. For now.
End of April was hot as I stated in my last post a month ago and so it was a bit of a shock for my body when I arrived in Poland 24th of April to spend part of my 2 week (Greek) Easter holiday. The temperatures dropped with half from +30 to only +12 degrees!
Nevertheless I am a Finn so it took me only about half a day for my body to get use to that feeling of being cold so sudden.
One can imagine a body screaming "it is freezing here, we are so gonna die!" and a head trying to calm the situation down by saying "hey it's not that cold here and we have survived of MUCH more than this so take it easy". I had no chance but to laugh at myself!
Gotta stay warm!
What? I didn't tell you why I ended up in Poland? I think I have mentioned about it _few_ posts back, but let me remind you!
So I have a Greek friend K and through her I met her Polish friend O and some time ago we decided to go all at O:s place for about week and this happened during Greek Easter :)
She lives in Warsaw so I have lot of pictures from there!
She showed us many amazing places like parks and churches and so on.
I saw Hard Rock-cafè for the first time!
Beautiful sightseeing tower from Germany that all Polish more or less hate.
It's gorgeous tho.

Our trip was amazing and I was in the best company! Big thank you to my girls and also to B, P and O:s and K:s parents <3
Here's a bit more pictures from our trip to Krakow. Even tough it was raining the WHOLE DAY and we were freezing and wet and I ruined my shoes so I had to buy new ones, the city is beautiful and I definitely will go there again and we did have the best time.
We stayed there only one day (we left from Warsaw at 7 am and headed back home 12 h later, the trip with a bus takes 5 hours) and on our way back I stayed in Kielce where I have another friend, D and back to Warsaw I headed the next evening.
Had the best time again and Kielce is "small" but beautiful city.
Polish delicacy, dumblings. Ou man i loved these! And especially these ones with strawberry and blueberry filling and sour cream sauce <3<3
Ok I realize now that I have used the word "beautiful" like a million times, but what can you do when everything is beautiful?
I left Poland on the 2nd of May and went to K:s place in Piraeus for few days and on the evening of 5th we took a overnight boat back to Chania and a bus to Rethimno. What a trip I can tell! Saw many yes here it comes amazingly beautiful places, met people that mean a lot to me and also got new battle scars!
Had to visit Athens of course
Hills in Piraeus
Sunrice in Chania
Six-dogs -cafe was a bit expensive, but just amazing and serene place to have a coffee or wine in Athens
"You see, Piraeus is so ugly that it broke your camera" - K
Once again.
Amazing trip!
Amazing people!
Amazing life I have, because of the people in it!
Have a wonderful May everybody and enjoy all the good moments and people in your lives!
