Taste Paris in style

When in Paris… enjoy your dinner slowly and eat as much cheese as possible.

Treat your breakfast with love and care – it’s the most important part of the day after all!

And be Frenchy as much as you can🇫🇷

Paris, May 2018.

Five random V in London facts / part four

1* Commuting in the city might be very tired and exhausting

2* There are so many non-touristic attractions for a fan girl like me, for instance,
a tube station at which Brian Molko met Stefan Olsdal

3* If you like anything in a shop, you need to grab it immediately – there is almost no chance you will find this product again even if you’ll come back on the same day

4* You can easily practice your French in posh areas of London

5* … and feel yourself lost somewhere between Italy, Greece, and Egypt in a variety of amazing museums with enormous collections of historical and art objects from all over the world. Travel around the world without leaving the bounds of one city!

Sky Garden

Now I know what Heaven looks like:

P.S. I can’t believe it’s already TWO WEEKS in London!

Time has come to make things right

All I ever wanted, all I ever needed is here in my arms…

My biggest dream came true a week ago. I not simply visited London, I MOVED IN. I still cannot find words to describe how happy I am. Words are very unnecessary…

To the moon and back. London

Bridesmaid’s look

Finally received photographs from Ju&Max Wedding ❤
As I already had a blog post about this lovely day, I decided to dedicate this mainly photographic post to my look for the wedding. In a nutshell, the idea was to create the look close to my ideal bride’s appearance. You know, I’m not an ordinary girl and I need everything to be creative, original and stylish as much as possible 😀 I will not share my dream dress here – who knows, maybe my future husband is reading this blog entry right now, but it’s a bad luck for a groom to see the wedding dress before the Big day 😀
So, let me present you Nirika the bridesmaid:

To celebrate this – a photograph from my very first day of school with a photograph of me starting my Master studies.
May the Force be with all of you in your studies! Be brave and motivated!

Tallinn trip number 394844757

Last week I visited Tallinn for… thirty-something’th time. I really can’t count how many times I have been there!

From the first minutes I felt like I’ve never left this place, like all the things that happened since my last trip in December never took place.

It is really a long story why I LOVE Tallinn, and it obviously requests a separate blog post, so let me share what places I visited and what I did during my stay.

Adventure of the lifetime

Большой пост о том как я в 11ый раз побывала в Хельсинки и посетила два концерта Muse подряд.

Всё началось с того, что ещё в сентябре я купила билет на (тот момент) последний концерт Drones tour’а в Хельсинки. Даже сама покупка билетов была нервная – на препродаже для фан-клуба мне не хватило стоячих мест, и в день официальной продажи я встала рано и ровно в 9 утра открыла покупку билета. У меня какое-то время не шла карта, и система меня выкидывала, но в 9:05 билет уже был мой, и вместе с ним я увидела, что все стоячие места уже sold out! После этого я, конечно, долго орала и плакала, т.к. последний раз видела свою самую любимую группу аж в 2012 году. А ещё я шесть лет мечтала увидеть их именно в своём самом любимом городе. И день концерта выпал как раз на то время, когда я обычно езжу в Хельсинки! Просто сказка 🙂

В феврале же Muse объявили концерт в Риге, через день после Хельсинки. Не задумываясь, я купила билет ещё на предпродаже для членов фан клуба. Потому что только в мечтах бывают два концерта Muse подряд!

Дальше было достаточно нервное время, т.к. пришлось просить некоторых университетских преподавателей перенести экзамены, писать все работы на много раньше дэдлайнов, а ещё моя любимая бабушка умерла за три недели до первого концерта.

Но не смотря на все трудности, мы решились поехать.
