the great escape

sooooo....depois de uma tarde inteira em frente do computador a stressar... e quando estávamos já quase quase a desistir,  finalmente conseguímos!
europe trip is booked!
passagens compradas. hostels reservados.

8 dias. 4 cidades. 3 miúdas..e muitas aventuras pelo caminho!
travel plan: Helsinki -> Tallin -> Riga -> London -> Stockholm -> Helsinki
transportation: boat, bus and airplane.

em Riga vamos ter guia turístico..well, sort of. esta semana conhecemos o Igors, um médico da Letónia que veio à Finlândia para preparar preparar o intercâmbio dos alunos dele..or something like that, e ele foi super porreirinho, disponibilizou-se logo para ir ter connosco quando andarmos lá pela terra dele..which is pretty nice!

and i guess that's it..

next week: Lapland!

let's go get lost, let's go get lost...

so, this weekend...everybody to tampere! 
except me. i was sick. going out was not the best thing for me to do for my throat...so, i stayed at home and just watched movies the entire weekend. kinda boring...mas para compensar, começámos ontem a planear uma viagenzinha para o início de abril...
backpacking through europe!
hopefully tomorrow we'll book everything.
cant wait! 
it's gonna be awesome.

far away

@finland
it's beautiful, peaceful, cold and white..
last saturday had a chance to go ice swimming , it was awesome! not as hard as i thought it would be... that same day went ice-fishing, drove a snowmobile, went to sauna and had a hole lot of fun with a 7 year old girl named Tuli. she doesnt speak english. i dont speak finnish...but we got along just fine! i guess we both speak 'kiddish'...it was really special.
this sunday we're probably traveling to tampere,  the third largest city in finland..we're going with 2 of our friends who are doing the erasmus programme in helsinki... it should be fun!

i guess should have written something in here already...oh well...didnt feel like it...
i'm bad with words ...but i'll try harder.
i'll try to post some pictures too.
