LitsianaDoesBirmingham!

Dear Diary,

Almost a month passed since my last blogpost and yet I haven`t got used to not finding some proper time to update you....
Soooo annoying!
The truth is that during the week I`m immensely busy and when I come back home after work I just want to chillax and go to sleep so as to confont the upcoming day fully recharged. During the weekends, I try to escape from the daily routine and do new things that will refresh me and fill me in with new experience!
About one and a half week ago, I paid a visit to Birmingham! To be honest, though it`s the the largest and most popular British city outside London it wasn`t on my list but, since the weekend getaway was a last minute decision Birmingham seemed the perfect destination from all aspects! 
On Saturday, the weather was gloomy and wanna be rainy-thank God it didn`t rain-.
On Sunday, the weather was amazing! The bluest sky was crammed full of fluffy clouds and I soaked up some sun! 
I am so thankful for having the chance to experience Birmingham in all weathers!
No matter what the weather looks like, Birmingham is stunning! A mixture of architecturally unique buildings, many malls, markets and arcades comprise the unforgettable city of Birmingham! 
More or less, it reminded me of my hometown, Thessaloniki! A concrete jungle where little green can be spotted but you fall in love with at 1st sight!

Ready to go on a visual trip to Birmingham?
I`ve used yester-color effect to edit my pics so as to give them a nostalgic look.































































Today, I decided to give vent to my bottled-up feeling by writing to you and reminiscing about a previous lovely weekend I had, looking forward to having more adventures pretty soon!
That`s all for today,
bedtime calling!
Write to you soon!
Goodnight kiss,
Litsiana K.

The concrete jungle!

Dear Diary,

For some, living in a foreign country can mean you`re always at sea about what`s going on...Being confused or not sure what to do creates an impossible situation and the only way to improve it, is by going to a smaller city/town where they don`t feel too stressed for comfort!
For me, it`s the other way round! 
Hardly can I imagine myself living in a small place where few things happen. It`s impossible for me to be away from the hustle and bustle... I`m a big city girl! I`ve always been and will always be!
Going on trips and seeing new places not only opens my horizons but also makes me realise how lucky I`m that I live in the concrete jungle of my dreams, London! 
Well, the 'concrete jungle' on its own has a negative connotation since it means a place in a city that`s crawling with big ugly buildings and has no open spaces. In London, that`s not the case! Wherever you lay your eyes on, you instantly get in love with the impressive structures around you! Also, the city is packed full of parks and open spaces where you can feel like a free bird!
Time here is at full pelt! So many things, so little time...














Should you feel fed up with where you currently are, move!
You are not a tree!
A big kiss,
Litsiana K.
