Crazy or not? Forget renting, buy a car for holidays!

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth February 24, 2014

Have you ever thought about buying a car, instead of renting one when going on holidays? I hadn’t. In Europe we usually go for rental cars. It’s easy to find a good deal online, only to find out at the pick-up desk that it wasn’t such a good deal after […]

Little pieces of backyard blogging from New Zealand

It is not necessary to travel all the way to New Zealand to take it slow, like we have done. But just like we explore our surroundings back home in Norway to get to know our backyard better, we are now trying to take a bite of the region we […]

What’s Up 2014!?

Happy Memories and New Adventures, Welcome 2014!

by Satu Vänskä-Westgarth January 2, 2014

Quite a view I had these holidays. Most of the time blocked by the thick duvet in its blue cover. And when not, walls, walls, walls. All around. Not exactly what I planned for Christmas, but if you have to fight a feisty winter bug, maybe the time when your […]
