She painted a new variation of them – sometimes from memory, sometimes from the original in front of her eyes, and sometimes with the help of a photograph. Completely new creations were born, with little left from the previous version. The younger […]

Swim http://www.minutes.fi/themes/feel-your-life/swim/ http://www.minutes.fi/themes/feel-your-life/swim/#comments Fri, 29 Sep 2017 04:55:21 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=2339 Wild swimming is a great way to relax and, especially when the water gets colder, it gives a nice boost to your metabolism and blood circulation. You may feel cold before you get in the water, but getting out you just feel great and energetic. You feel your body and therefore you are fully alive. […]

Freshen up http://www.minutes.fi/themes/habits/freshen-up/ Fri, 15 Sep 2017 04:56:35 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=4133 Turndown service is something I really like in hotel life, especially when you get the white linen mat beside your bed. It celebrates an act so simple as crawling in bed. At home, especially when I spent the day working at home, I like to do a similar, quick ritual before evening. Meaning, I spend […]

Fridays http://www.minutes.fi/themes/routine/fridays/ Thu, 06 Apr 2017 14:55:30 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=3527 One of the nicest places in town to walk in at five o’clock on a Friday afternoon. BasBas & Staff Wine Bar serves great wine and a changing selection of small plates in a no-nonsense yet cozy setting. If you have tried and liked some friendly neighborhood Bar à vin in France, you will totally love […]

Avocado toast http://www.minutes.fi/themes/in-november/avocado-toast/ Thu, 03 Nov 2016 08:57:52 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=2696 Hello toast friend, it has been a while. We have been friends before but with all the fresh and vital summer food it would be insanity to live on avocados grown somewhere very far, picked raw and flown here. Well, we got snow yesterday in Helsinki. So the season of local vegetables grown in the […]

To see http://www.minutes.fi/themes/taking-notes/to-see/ http://www.minutes.fi/themes/taking-notes/to-see/#comments Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:59:41 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=1932 One of my favorite things to watch in my daily life is how thoughts become things, reality. It is so much fun in fashion and personal style, to notice a detail first somewhere and then everywhere. You thought you were just eating yellow plums but soon you find yourself planting yellow roses for the garden, eyeing […]

To do http://www.minutes.fi/themes/taking-notes/to-do/ http://www.minutes.fi/themes/taking-notes/to-do/#comments Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:58:03 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=1938 My home city Helsinki is like a little village. As nice it is to have coffee and do grocery and flower shopping on your home street, sometimes it is good to walk a little further and explore. In my case, it means some type of weekend stroll around the city. An exhibition, maybe a book […]

Wine School: Natural Wine http://www.minutes.fi/themes/for-real/wine-au-naturel/ http://www.minutes.fi/themes/for-real/wine-au-naturel/#comments Thu, 11 Aug 2016 04:58:31 +0000 http://www.minutes.fi/?p=1873 The first time I tried a natural wine I did not quite get it. Is this wine okay? Why can’t I tell what it smells or tastes like, it all feels very hazy and cloudy… A ground-breaking moment for me was visiting Emidio Pepe’s winery in Abruzzo, Italy. The daughter of the wine maestro explained us their process and […]
