corners of my home




a friend asked me to take some photos of my flat. so, here you are!

even though weddings are not my cup of tea, i saw this beautiful couple's photos (via a cup of jo) and i thought their moment is so much precious also because they did it their way.

some photos of their gorgeous flat on the selby.

the distance the focus the wilderness

photo taken by p in the alpes

this photo provokes so much emotion to me. the wilderness of the background scenery and the tranquility of horses or vice versa if you prefer.

focusing depends so much on what's important for us at the given moment.

in this photo, at the given moment, i can only see the beautiful wilderness of horses underlined by the distant tranquility of the surroundings.

but then, again, this is only my point of view.

ode to smile


have you ever felt that somebody has stolen your smile? lately, this seems to be the case for me. it doesn't really matter how hard i try to bring it back, my sorrow is there in any step i make, in any door i open. it makes my food tasteless and my drink bitter.

losing my smile is maybe the most valuable thing for me and when it's gone i feel i am sinking into an internal dark. it doesn't feel like when the other day somebody stole my wallet off my bag. that didn't touch me an inch. in fact, i woke up next morning and couldn't remember what was that really important thing that had happened to me the previous day.

when your smile abandons you is like the spring of life that everyone of us carries within him/her has dried up. and you feel you can't live without it as you can't live without water.

japan look


hello! i' m all excited today! and it has to do with these two geishas above. they are embroidered and i discovered them in my mum's small attic. it has also to do with the straw hat! summer is close and it's time to redecorate my place. i' m also doing up my balcony, planting, lighting etc. have i told you i have a bit of a view to lycabettus?

i also watched this film. for second time. it's nice when people can appreciate you the way you are. don't you think?

beautiful hats from seeberger. pretty home accessories from moebel kolonie.

last chance


last night i watched this beautiful film. it' s about the true love of an iranian boy for an afgan girl. photography is just amazing. today, i also watched another love film (this period is all about love films; i hope it's nothing too serious). it's called last change harvey; dustin hoffman and emma thompson starring.

some notes here; first, i think i prefer emma thompson brunette. i did some research on her hair colour and i laughed when i read this. second, girl is taller than boy. i love the match though! third, bride and groom don't know how to dance. at least, actors should have taken some dance classes before filming.

however, this film managed to make me cry. it's not super romantic or corny but it somehow touched me! how many chances do we have to get happy in life?

having said that, i think this habitat chair would make me really happy at the moment. also, this beautiful scarf. don't you think?
