pep talk




…yeah, not much to say. these are from what i thought was the last snow of the season, but hey… it’s snowing again!
i suppose i should look at it from the bright side – more time for winter sports, right? except… i gave snowboarding a try some weeks ago, and was beaten bad, with bruises to prove it. plus, i’ve developed a mild fear of button lifts…
i’ve been gathering up courage to go back. i mean, i doubt i’ll ever live 30 min from the slopes again, so i should enjoy it, right? right. ok, let’s do this.

it’s mostly melting now, and the ground is muddy and gross… so let’s look up, shall we? :)

trta

perhaps because of its closeness to italy, ljubljana has quite a number of pizzerias. most of these have a wooden oven in a corner, and the pizzas are done in front of you. i’m not a pizza specialist, but i think they’re quite good!

trta is a cozy little place by the river, in the south side of the city. they have a nice service and biiiig pizzas with good ingredient combinations. we tried the desserts (tiramisu and pears in wine) and they got thumbs up as well! i really like this place, the decoration makes it feel quite homey and it never seems crowded. also, bonus points for having cesária évora playing on the background :)
naturally, there are pictures:

and what was left of it

i’ve never been to japan, but sometimes when i look at these snowy photos, i imagine what it would be like to stand in the middle of a field of cherry blossom trees. it would be really neat – and probably not so cold… my camera doesn’t like the cold so much, though my fingers and body seem to be adapting to winter rather well – i’m the strange girl who doesn’t need gloves when it’s minus 10 degrees outside… :/

soft rime, part 2

a little h2o and a slight breeze on a cold night, and voilá, the city turns into neverland on a winter day :)
