From Faraway with Love – Sending Postcards Home

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth April 10, 2014

These days to have something else than junk mail in our mailbox feels like a miracle. And by box, I mean the real physical one that sits outside among the row of boxes next to the parking lot. On these rare occasions I first get excited, if it’s not an official […]

Late Winter Early Spring Bliss in Norway

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth April 3, 2014

Home sweet home. One hundred percent and then some! I thought I’d never want to leave New Zealand, but when it was time to go, the departure was less painful than I feared it would and could be. With quick visits to Finland, Morocco and Finland again before landing at […]

Crash Course to Norwegian, the Moroccan Way

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth March 27, 2014

Escape to Melbourne – the Sweet Life of a Solo Traveler

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth March 14, 2014

15000 kilometres of New Zealand Beaches I @SatuVW I Destination Unknown

15,000 Kilometres of Beach

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth March 6, 2014

Beach holidays make me cringe. The memories I have of the last one involved two bright red legs with white hand-marks on the thighs, where I had carelessly slapped on some sunscreen. And this was after lazy day(s) on the beach followed by margarita filled night(s) in the local nightclub. […]

Meanwhile at Home: Beautiful Winter Images from Scandinavia

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth February 27, 2014

I am trying to be on denial. And I would be doing great if there was no Instagram. Shorts, T-shirt and sandals are my daily uniform here in New Zealand, coupled with regularly applied layers of factor thirty or fifty. The bright blue pair of runners is put to use […]
