Bike heroes :)


Some people are just so nice! :) It's not even noon yet, but 2 guys already made my day !

My bike was in a really bad condition after having stood outside the whole summer and was in desperate need of new air and oil ! I went to a 2nd-hand bike store and asked if they could fix the tires and the chain and no problem, 2 minutes and it was done. Then they didn't even want any money! I protested of course, but nope - they didn't want anything - just a smile!

Where in Europe do you find nice people like that :) It really made my day and now my bike is going like it's new !!

Luggage trouble


I'm not a person who complains a lot... But I really feel like saying a big BLEH! to Scandinavian Airlines because they haven't improved the amount of maximum luggage allowed, differing from their competitor KLM...

KLM has changed their rules this year from 20 kg to 23 kg checked in luggage and from 10 kg to 12 kg of handluggage. That makes a total of 35 kg of luggage while freakin SAS only have a total of 28 kg... Suckers. Keep up with the competition, I'd tell them.

Now 3 days before departing to Holland with SAS and the fact stands - I have a lot more luggage than 28 kg that I want to bring.. *Big sigh* Tomorrow I think I have to start the selection process of which items are going with me..

I always cheat a little and put heavy things in my handbag (Always bring a big one), because every girl of course needs a handbag :P I really like being a lady - it brings a lot of benefits!

The good bottom line of all this is:

For Xmas, I'm going home with KLM and I can bring 35 kilos of gifts with me !! :D



If you land in Holland in springtime, it may look something like this :P Flower fields! It is a very spectacular country after all :)

My summer is almost over and school is almost starting again.

Mixed feelings about this fact, because on one hand it's nice to be back in Holland and do fun things with my baby, live close to the beach and so on..

On the other hand, it brings me closer to whatever the f*ck I'm gonna do in less than a year... Will I pass all my school things and where and how will I be on my management placement ? Lots of things to think about and SOLVE... *Sigh* I hope it will all work out, I just get this panic feeling inside whenever I think of it...

Well, whatever :) I had the most wonderful summer with my family in Poland and my parents, with my beloved baby and my dear friends in Sweden :)

Here are some highlights from this summer:




Me and my wonderful boyfriend :)


Having fun in Liseberg with awesome company !

Love, love, love ! :)


and, something new for me: BEER ! (but I only drink it mixed with some Sprite!) :)


As said, it was a fantastic vacation and I am ever so happy together with the prince of my dreams !! :)
