This summer is very chilly. I mean it is
neither cold nor warm. It is actually OK for me. This year I started to be
allergic to some pollen, as many other people, so I don't like when it is too
warm and I started to appreciate the rain... Nevertheless, I still try to spend
as much time as possible walking outside and thanks to some medicines, I am
actually able to :)
Besides walking with Leo, I enjoy strolls
next to the sea side, swimming in the lake and grilling. I got so hooked up
with grilling veggies: zucchini, corn and paprika, as well as with grilling
this one awesome Halloumi cheese (originally from Cyprus). I really recommend
these!
I wish I could take a pic of everything I
do, but that would be slightly crazy.
Last Sunday, we managed to get to the city
centre and go for a short walk on the sea side. We met our friend and went to
get some sandwich in the nearest cafeteria. The view was amazing. Afterwards, we
managed to go to Kaivopuisto and enjoy some green colour ;)
Last night, two of our
dear friends that live in Turku visited us. We had taken them to swim in the
lake. It was pretty chilly, but it seemed that the water was much warmer than
the air. I enjoyed this swimming soooo much, it was a pity to go out of the
lake, but we managed to warm up drinking some Spanish apple cider and long
drinks ;) We had also grilled some food. Yummy! What I really like about
Finland is that there are so many places to swim, hike, grill, play sports. And
these are all for free, for everyone. Even wood for the grill is already there,
all you need to do is to chop it into pieces.
Tonight we also meet two of our dear friends. We went to this one restaurant on the island and it was pretty OK, although the service was really bad (at least our waiter). I don't want to go into details but waiting for water to drink for 30 minutes is not OK :( Fortunately, food was pretty tasty. I had a vegetarian pizza and it was very nice.
Btw, if my Mom is reading this: MOM, I am pescetarian now! Good night! ;)
