Adventure Park Fun Norwegian Style

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 28, 2012

It doesn’t matter where I have lived, at first I’ve always been excited to get to know the new city, town or village. I’ve seen some of the sights and taken some tours. And then I’ve settled down. Loved and lived the life in a new place until I’ve moved […]

Capturing the Colours of Norway

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 23, 2012

When I started this blog it was not going to be all about Norway. Yes, I wanted to write about life in Norway. But also about our travels around Europe and further afield. Outdoors. Food. All the little bits and pieces related to travel and experiencing new cultures. And here […]

Life in Pictures: Devon Revisited

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 8, 2012

Just because I’ve been going on (and on and on) about Devon and England lately, I’m going to continue and share one more picture. Just one more. You wouldn’t even have known it was from Devon, if I hadn’t told you. The quayside in Exeter is home to many beautiful swans. […]

Life in Pictures: Day at the Beach in Venice

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth August 2, 2012

Beautiful early spring day in Venice, Italy. No tourists, no crowds, no noise. In the summer these beaches on the Lido island just outside Venice’s touristic centre swarm with activity, but in March, it was all perfect! “Life in Pictures” is a random collection of shots from here and there, […]
