Fridays` fun!

Today my son was of from school so we headed for town. It was a nice mother-son bonding time. We walked I think through the whole Tirana. It was nice, sunny weather with a lot of people outside. The coffee places were over filled as always. Nobody in the world takes coffee time so seriously as the Albanians. They really value social time with friends/girlfriends/boyfriends here. Here are some pictures me and my son took today. Hope you have a wonderful Friday! And a big shout-out to my most wonderful sister-in-law Sahara for it is her birthday today!! 🙂 🙂

Happy B-day Sahara!!

Stockholm City

Igår åkte jag in till Stockholm med klassen för att besöka Stockholms Universitet. Vi va där på några föreläsningar och sedan åkte jag och mina vänner inn till butikerna i stan för att hitta en present till min bror som fyllde år. Fick även med mig ett par snygga slitna stuprörsjeans hem som kommer passa riktigt snyggt nu när våren är påväg till Sverige! 🙂

 

Yesterday I was in Stockholm with my class to visit Stockholm University. We were there on lectures, and afterwards me and  my friends went into the stores to find a birthday gift to my brother, I bought these faded, skinny jeans that are perfect for the Spring.

My weekend!

Wow this weekend has been a busy one. On Saturday, as you have already seen it was my birthday which we ended up celebrating with some family friends/relatives of my husband`s. They are in their 30`s as well and have 3 children. First we made sure the kids would have their dosage of fun by taking them to their favorite playground and afterwards we went to dinner, the whole crew. We went to this restaurant where they serve traditional Albanian food, and wine to accomplish the dinner with :). After that we ended at our place for the cake and they sang the happy birthday song to me and I got to blow a candle and make a wish. It was my birthday after all. Lately I have felt like eating cake is all I have been doing. First my sons B-day, two cakes there, then one for V-day, now one for my birthday.. Today on Sunday, it was Kosovo`s 5th year of independence! Happy independence day to my birth Country!! Yep I am Albanian, born in Kosovo, grew up in Sweden, lived in USA and am now living in Albania, some life journey right? Anyways, so we ended up going out again with the kids and our friends/relatives and had a wonderful early evening dinner. It was just wonderful, we had so much fun chit-chatting and the kids could go outside and play, because the restaurant was at the beach. Another thing that we are celebrating today is my little sister Mirlinda turning 19. So happy B-day darling!!!!! I took a few pictures of some gifts I received  too. Hope you had a lovely weekend too!! Besa

We also ate lots of fresh strawberries that my husband brought us, which we grow our self here in Albania and sell and export. All-berry.com

Starting of the right way!

Good Morning! Today is an exciting day for me and the kids. Their dad is coming home from his trip to Germany and Portugal, he has been gone for 6 days now. Even the sun seems to be shining brighter 🙂 . The day is starting of perfectly, and the kids are waking up smiling. It`s all positive energy!!  It`ll be perfect, we all get together just on time for VD( Valentine`s Day) and it happens to be my B-day on the 16th, the age thing we don`t need to go into that haha. Anyways, I love when the days start of this way, because they usually end in the same way. Have a terrrrific day everyone, remember to be present and bless the small things in your life, because they are the most valuable ones. Peace/ Besa
