Took a vacay from my vacay

I know I haven't updated anything for over a week now, but I went to our summer place last Monday and decided to stay away from all kind of social media and internet. Well, I did post a few pictures on my Snap story, but that barley counts. And I also watched the whole new season of Orange is the new black, but that's also okay... I think.

Anyway, I had a great week and came back to the city much more relaxed. I'm well aware of the fact that I don't have a job to go to right now and my life's supposed to be "easy", but there is so much stuff to do all the time and there is always someone who needs my help with something. So, I actually felt a bit stressed out before I took "a vacay from my vacay" as I like to call it.

Maybe you are wondering what I have been doing for almost a whole week? (Or maybe not, but I'm going to tell you anyway!)

I took the bus to Taalintehdas on Monday. The bus takes about three hours from Helsinki, but it's totally worth it when you arrive and just can sit on the balcony and enjoy this view!

It was not the best weather on Tuesday, but the fish don't care about that, so I bought myself a new fishing rod and went fishing!

First I got this little one... Not a great success (as Borat probably would say).

Then I got lucky and suddenly I had a big bream for dinner. It was really good. I think it was the first time I ever ate one, but I was not disappointed.

Typical Finnish food during the summer. Different kind of fish and potatoes. At least that's what I like to eat.

Wednesday was one of the best days yet this summer! I met up with my cousin for a drink, then we went to visit his mom for some dessert and after that we enjoyed a few more drinks in the sun with some friends.

We ended up in the local pub for some billiards and maybe a shot or two...

The next morning I came here for a long swim. There is nothing better than a cooling dip in the water when you're slightly hangover.

... And this is how I get around in the small village when I'm not borrowing my mom's car.

Last photo from Taalintehdas. On Thursday evening we went out for a barbecue by the sea. I made the fire all by myself, and yes, I am proud of it! It took me just one match. On Friday I just took a short fishing trip and then I cleaned up in the apartment, and when my mom got there I took her car and drove back home to the city.

Saturday was also a really good day. First I drove to Porvoo for my brother's birthday party and after that I went to see some friends with my boyfriend. Pizza, drinks and chill. Perfect.

I think I could stay up and write so much more about this past week, but enough is enough. I didn't sleep that well last night, so I'm really looking forward going to bed! But first I have to go and pick up my sister from the studio. Btw, she will drop a new single after the summer (she's a singer/song-writer) and the song is AWESOME. But more about that when it's released.

Have a nice week everyone!
