Blog about work and babies

 Hey everyone! Gosh, time goes by fast - it's been almost a month since my last blogpost. We travelled here in Finland this past month so I guess that always makes busy daily life even busier with planning the vacation and going to the actual vacation. With kids life is always busy but not complaining! :) That being said, here's a short look on the Sappee vacation. * In collaboration with Offerilla (this post contains ads)*. Sappee and Offerilla  With the pandemic going on, travelling is still very important to our family. Being stuck at home a lot as I still work remotely and not being able to see people a lot, it's so important to make sure we can arrange something fun for our family every now and then. That's why we decided to head to Sappee  for two nights which offers skiing hills and other outdoor stuff for especially families. It's about 2 hour drive from Helsinki which is just perfect for us since our youngest son naps and that gives him the perfect timing f...

Hey everyone! It's already april and spring is on its full swing! :) Not that the weather is great here in Finland where it rains, snows like crazy but sometimes it even shines through the clouds. Anyway, it is time to tell about our recent vacation to Rakvere , Estonia. (The link goes straight to Ikaalisten matkatoimisto's site where you can book your own trip to Rakvere). We started our trip with a ferry that was included in the price, and we also had our car with us. The ferry takes about 2 hours to get from Helsinki to Tallinn, and we travelled with the super fancy new boat called MS Megastar . Not only the process of driving your car to and from the ferry works as it should, the ferry is so clean, modern and it has two things families travelling with kids need: a playroom and Burger King ;) You know, first your kids get to run around in a safe playarea and just before you have to leave the boat and get in to your car, you eat something fast (because kids are still at ...

Hi you all! It's been so long since I wrote the last time so I decided now's the perfect time for that :) We've been back from Sunny Beach , Bulgaria for 2 weeks already and we're finally getting back to the normal life. Our trip there was fantastic - great weather, good food and kids loved plus we all stayed healthy that whole trip - but it was exhausting at the same time. Travelling with two little ones can be that but overall it was a good trip and I can highly recommend it for everyone. Life is a beach - beach life :) Food is good and the portions are big enough (our restaurant bill varied from 30-50 BGN which is roughly divided by 2 in euros - cheap!) And those restaurant bills always included drinks (beer, wine and huge juice for our toddler). I think I only spent 360€ in two weeks, not bad at all! Food! The beaches are nice too and safe enough for little swimmers to go to. Some parts of the beach had quite big waves but we always headed towards...

We've finally agreed on our summer vacation and our destination will be Sunny Beach in Bulgaria :) We really went through all the options out there but realized we don't anything else than a good hotel (a decent one is not an option with 2 kids) that has activities for kids and adults too, walking distance from the beach, a mall and sun. Not too much sun, of course even though it might get super warm here too. And we're sorta on a budget this summer since I'm not working currently so saving money on something is a big bonus. The hotels we looked for, do need to have a playground for kids, restaurant(s) and they do need to offer a shuttle service to/from the airport. We also need a bigger hotelroom so the kids have enough room to play and a small kitchen area to prepare breakfast and snacks for the kids if they need. A microwave is a must since I need to warm the milk for my baby and prepare morning and evening porridge for him as well. We also decided we're gonna...
