early morning


I discovered the sweet life of Starbucks while visiting Amsterdam, you know we have Starbucks in Paris and Marseille only, but nothing between (I guess). I visited once in Paris but took hot chocolate (duh.. should be coffee) so this time, the two times I had breakfast there I tried different flavoured lattes. Loved the vanilla latte, adored the hazelnut! And the blueberry muffins! (no need to mention that we do not have Starbucks in Finland,at all..)



I had one evening to visit the center of Amsterdam, as it was a worktrip and we were working around the clock (almost!)The center is quite interesting, specially when you get lost in the red light district.




Butter Waffles, eat one and you feel sugar running in your veins. 


So yes, it was a worktrip to the biggest tradeshow for the creation,management and delivery of broadcasting media and entertainment.

Propably the most expencive display there was from Sony, they had one hall for themselves.

In 35mins I am supposed to wake up (thanks to Léonie, I woke up at 5am) and then get ready to....
FINLAND!
Yes, indeed, I'm taking my plane this morning!

So I wish everyone a great weekend and see you after the holidays.

  4. love those waffles! Visitors from Amsterdam sometimes bring us those when they stay in our hotel. So good. But you can only eat one because they are just way sweet. Best with unsweetened green tea.

  7. I miss starbucks! I drink in a starbucks cup every day.

    Love the photos Sini! Have a wonderful trip. I love the Netherlands. Can't wait to see the pics of Finland. I've never been there.

    p.s. thanks for your lovely message. I spent most of my blog vacation working on my jewellery and art. And spent less time on Pinterest and the Internet in general. It was a good break.

    xoxo glad to be back.
