Jamiroquai, here we come!

Just a couple more hours and I'm going to see my all time favourite band Jamiroquai performing at a festival held here, in Bulgaria. I can't believe this is happening! I've been dreaming about it ever since I heard the news, and now that the day is finally here, I simply cannot be more excited! I am going to dance to my favourite songs, performed live by my favourite band, with my most favourite boy on Earth... can you think of a better date?

p.s. - on a side note, let me give you an advice: never trust one-time cameras. Remember when I told you about our attempt to take underwater pictures? We did the impossible to take 30 pictures just to understand the next day that... the film was empty. Such a pity! But oh, well. W still have all the precious memories! :)

Sun tea and best friends.

"The feeling of knowing how perfect your day will be just because you know how perfect the person you're going to spend it with is", tweeted Lubi about our day today. It was more than perfect, it was magical.

We finally got to try our underwater camera (in a hot tub, but still!) and it was such an adventure. It's definitely hard to focus (and to stay still) under water, but we do hope at least 3 out of 30 pictures would look fine. Can't wait to see them developed tomorrow!

The weather was perfect and we decided to spend the rest of it outside in the garden. We made raspberry sun tea, laughed so hard my cheeks still hurt and shared secrets no other person would ever know.

One word: magical.

Etar

"Etar" is a very beautiful architectural ethnographic complex in Bulgaria and also, one of my favourite places on Earth. It was some kind of a ritual for me and my family to visit it once a year and it brings the sweetest memories now.

"Etar" is a place full of workshops, where craftsmen are manufacturing different products before your eyes (pottery-making workshop, cutlery, coppersmithery, bakery) and thus you can observe the ancient technology and original instruments that have been used in the past. Lazar was pretty amused by hand-made (and super sharp) knives and I... well... I just couldn't wait to taste my favourite sugar flowers again!

Have a wonderful day!

Dexter's got a new friend!

It took me forever to figure out how to add music and upload this video... Probably that's why I never share videos! (although I have tons of.) I know it's bad quality but I really wanted to share this memory with you. Dexter's got a new friend, the tiny little kitty called Diego (strange name, huh? Not my idea!) and it's the cutest thing ever. I'm not quite sure Diego realizes Dexter is a dog (or the other way around, actually) and they are both very curious and excited about each other. Dexter wants to play, but is way too clumsy, Diego wants to hide somewhere, but is way too slow. It's adorable.

Dexter & Diego sounds like a mischievous pair. But a cute one, too.

Flowers in her hair

Summer is my season. Cold fruit drinks. Smell of roses (my absolute favourite place in my hometown is a rose garden that is just magical). Blue skies and pretty little white clouds. Don't be mad at me for being away for too long. I just celebrate summer.

I can't wait to put a flower wreath and run around my favourite beach just in a couple of weeks. What are your plans for the upcoming summer days?

Strawberry June

My June started with finally meeting one of my soulmates (I'm so lucky I have three!) and it feels just like old times. I also took the plunge and now I am driving all by myself, which is a huge step for me.

I am back in my hometown, I am with the people I love the most and I enjoy every minute of it.

My June is perfect. And it tastes like strawberries.

Hot Spot

This is a commissioned illustration I did for... my dad. Yesterday he asked me if I could draw something abstract (and in purple! I guess it's not only my favourite colour.) he could use as a desktop background on his computer.I sketched some ideas, I even nearly finished two, but none of them felt quite like it. So, as always, I decided to improvise... and came up with this :)
What do you think?

Read of the Month: May

You might know Roald Dahl as one of the greatest storytellers for children of the 20th century. His most famous book - "Charlie and the Chocolate Factoy" was adapted into two major motion pictures, that are both worth seeing.
"My Uncle Oswald" is an adults' novel that is just as good as Dahl's children's stories and proves he can entertain both audiences equally well. The plot is so original and trustworthy that you can easily believe it's a true story. It is absolutely hilarious and you simply cannot resist reading another chapter.
I didn't know anything about the book or the plot and it made it even more interesting, so I wouldn't spoil it for you, either. If you find "My Uncle Oswald", read it - it is the perfect summer treat.

Make a wish

It always takes me way too much time to wish upon a dandelion. I don't want to miss anything or anyone and it's not that easy. Because you know what they say, one must be careful with what he wishes for. Everything comes true, eventually. We only have to be patient. And clear of what we wish for.

Have a marvelous week, everyone!

Some fun days ahead!

photos above are taken in my most favourite town, Rousse.

What feels more exciting than packing your suitcase and knowing that in a couple of hours you'll be somewhere completely different and new?

Me and Lazar have planned a whole week of traveling and adventures so please, keep your fingers crossed for safe trips, nice weather and lots of beautiful photos. I'll keep you posted!

Heart-shaped.

I've never had heart-shaped glasses. Matter of fact, I've never even liked them. But there is something dreamy and magical about them, don't you think? It's like you'll see a whole different world when you put them on. Hmm... I might get a pair actually. :)
Happy weekend!

My Lovely Dexter

Here's Dexter, resting on the sofa after the longest walk outside in the rain.

I guess owl loving runs in the family, because he can't sleep until his new friend (the owl pillow) is near him.

That's my boy!

May!

My favourite month of all is finally here!

It's the perfect time for walks in the park (it's magical with all the flowers and trees blooming) and enjoying cupcakes (preferably blue violet ones!). Happy May everyone!
