Last week was the first spring week. I though it would make me happy and all energetic but somehow I ended up feeling down again, unmotivated and uninspired.

When you're a melancholic bad weather is always around the corner. Try to use it. Make something out of it.

 I want to be in charge of my emotions so one afternoon I dressed up and went to the forest to take some photos cos I haven't in quite a while and it usually makes me feel better, or at least a bit productive. This is the result of it. There are very few photos I like from that day, but I still wanted to share them with you.

Hello everyone and Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it! 🎄
I hope you all had a wonderful, joyful time with your loved ones or with whom ever you spent it. May everyone's holidays be filled with kindness, joy, laughter and lots of love.  ❤︎


Like every holiday so far I was at home with my family (not like I could choose since I live with them). We decorate our tree on the Christmas Eve and this was the first year sisters and I decorated it on our own. It was always something parents did but this year they let us do it. Dad got this beautiful silver pine which looked gorgeous even without all the ornaments.

We always spend Christmas Eve at home. During day preparing the house and during the evening relaxing, enjoying and watching festive film.
Christmas Day is the day when family gathers, dad's side of family comes over for lunch and then cousin and we watch films in the living room while grown ups talk in the kitchen or they join us, but usually not for the first which is always a horror film (our little tradition) . In the afternoon we visit mom's side of family and stay there for dinner. This year I stayed home with cousin cos I was at grandma's on Christmas Eve and I didn't want to leave him alone. But I'll probably visit grandma today again...

The glittery shirt is from my fave vintage store Ulični Ormar

I'll make another festive post this week. It'll include some beauty and fashion combinations for the New Years Eve so stay tuned ✨

What are your holidays like? How do you celebrate it? Do you have any traditions?


Thank you for reading xx

Hello!
This weekend was the most wonderful one in quite a while. I visited Budapest, explored a bit and spent a lot of time getting to know other travellers at the hostel. To me travelling isn't just about sightseeing, going around the city on your own or with someone you know. What I care more about is meeting new people, the ones that are at the same place as you at the same time. Listening to their stories, finding out what brought them there, where will they go next, gaining some experience by learning from their stories. Then exploring the city, lonesome streets and busy ones. High spots, hidden spots, cultural spots, ruins, pubs, cafes and clubs. Budapest is full of everything. Whatever you're searching for you'll find there.

Before leaving I made a list of places I wanna visit, but well, didn't visit most of them cos I ended up elsewhere or was too lazy to walk to the other side of the city. I'm already planing to go back during spring or summer to explore. It's much easier for me to walk around during the warm seasons. When it's cold and gloomy I prefer to stay inside or stay in a close circle of the place I'm staying at.

From Zagreb to Budapest is a 5h ride. We left on Friday morning and got there around 2pm. First place we visited was Citadella on the Gellert hill. I won't talk about it's history cos everyone can google it. But basically it's the place with the best view of the entire city.

Hello!
Autumn covered streets with it's colourful blanket, warm sunny days exchange with rainy ones and mornings are cooler and cooler and extremely hazy. Winter is coming, but let's first enjoy the magic this season brings.

Hello!
In a previous post I mentioned my friend Bruno, who's and aspiring folk singer-songwriter. He plays on the street sometimes, writes songs and music, gathers inspiration from the musicians that inspired him and the life itself. This summer he had his first gig on the "Pick-Up music festival (acoustic night)" and shortly after that they asked him to play on a street festival in Karlovac.
You can check out his band here : Bruno Šlat & Hazer El Mi

Hi there!
Few days before summer ended Maggie and I went for a walk towards the forest. As we live in a hilly area there are many meadows everywhere. At this time of year there aren't many flowers too see or to pick, but there are blackberry and hip shrubs. It was a sunny warm afternoon, we needed to use it the best we could because days before it were rainy and so were the ones after it.

Hello!
