| November Nights

Life November 20, 2018


The days are getting shorter, the night arrives early these days. Today, it has snowed for the first time here in my hometown and it felt so cozy sitting in the candlelight watching the snow on the window quickly turning into rain. I’m missing the snow in the mountains but I am also enjoying the grey days here – they are made for a slow and cozy time in bed. I cannot believe that it is December in a couple of days, and the Christmas time will start soon. I always try to enjoy it to its fullest because it should be the month of rest, peace and coziness, but then again I know that it will be gone so very quickly which makes me feel restless instead – and also, the new year is coming closer which makes me excited but also nervous as it always does. 

The other day I’ve finally got the lens I wanted to get for a while now – a 28-300mm zoom lens. I was waiting for the right offer to appear and the other night I found one for a reasonable price. Now, I’m waiting for the postman every day to bring me the package! I cannot wait for it to arrive and to try it out – and hopefully, I will be able to shoot the moon finally! 

I’m still recovering from the flu, but I felt so much more active today than the past couple of days so I wrapped the mittens from my shop which someone ordered last night and got them ready to send away tomorrow. I’m so happy they will soon have a new home and warm someone’s hands this Winter! For now, I will make some soup, another cup of tea and spend the rest of the evening in bed watching some series. I hope you’ll have a cozy night too! 

 

with love, 

Michelle

As cheesy and romanticized it might sound but when I am in the woods, strolling through the trees, laying in the soft green moss with the sun shining on my face, I feel home. I feel like this is where I belong to, the place where I am in peace. I don’t know what it is about the forest but it makes me feel eased and calm.

Happy Sunday, everyone! I hope you slept well and enjoyed the morning with your favourite breakfast and the sun greeting you. I woke up shortly after six and made my way to the stables again to take care of the horses.

Happy Midsummer, everyone! It has been insanely hot here the past couple of days, but now it finally cooled down and the sky is covered in clouds while the wind is running through the trees in our garden. I am sitting at my window watching them, thinking.

Fear of the future – When the uncertainty becomes scary
Fear of the future – When the uncertainty becomes scary

July 23, 2017

I am a written paper of a story not yet told – Sometimes I feel like my story has been written already, that our lives are determined, but yet the future is a blank page. It makes no sense because our future can’t be prescribed but still alterable. I believe that things will come how they should, that my fate is already chosen, but recently I found myself being scared of the uncertainty of the future more and more often.

On the 25th of August, I arrived in Helsinki in the evening after almost missing my flight, because I got to the airport too late due to a delay of the train. I left my suitcase at the door of the hotel room and jumped on the bed right away. Tiina had picked me up from the railway station and we walked to the hotel together, while I felt like a ghost walking through the streets where I once lived.
