jutta r.

Jälleen on aika palata heinäkuiseen Lontooseen, tai tarkemmin sanottuna Warner Bros -studiolle. Lontoosta on tulossa tämän jälkeen vielä noin kolme postausta, jotka yritän saada alta pois mahdollisimman pian (kuinkahan usein oon jo sanonut noin), sillä ensi kuussa koittaa uusi reissu - ei tosin Lontooseen, vaan Berliiniin! Haluaisin siis kovasti saada Lontoon jutut jo käsiteltyä, jotta pääsen matelemaan Berliini-postausten kanssa, hehe.

Once again it's time to jump back to London, or actually to the Warner Bros studio. After this post there will be about three more London posts and I really hope that I manage to write most of them before the end of May, because in May I'm going to Berlin! Imagine how long it would take me to write about both of those trips at the same time, when even writing about our London trip has taken me almost a year, hah!

Jatketaan siis tällä kertaa Harry Potter -kierroksen kuvilla. Haluan jälleen muistuttaa, että postauksessa tulee näkymään paljon kuvia…

I often get asked about my pen palling hobby: How many pen pals do I have? When did I start? Is(n't) it expensive? And the most frequent: why?

I don't really understand why people are so curious about why I write letters. I know that it's kind of an old-fashioned hobby, but it's not like I would ask anyone why do they play soccer instead of writing letters. I think it's almost a bit rude to ask a question like that - obviously I do it because I enjoy it. Honestly, there are not many things that make me happier than receiving a letter from a far-away friend. Usually the following question after why is why don't I use Facebook, Whatsapp, email, LINE etc? Well, I do. I use all of them. I'm not going to deny it, they are very handy and I'm so happy that I have the chance to communicate with my friends and family so easily. But when you think about it, how often do you go back to your old conversations in Facebook or scroll your old Whatsapp messages? At le…

Forgive me my readers, for I have sinned. Yes, I promised that there would be a mail post "in the end of this week".. Well, it's been about three weeks since I wrote that, oops (or at least I wrote that in Finnish, hehe). I really don't want to become one of those bloggers who begins all of their blog posts by apologizing for inactivity, but let me just say, life is keeping me super busy at the moment! Last week I had a little more spare time than usual because it was Easter and obviously I didn't have school. I finally had time to answer to all of the letters: one of them had been waiting for my reply since October. Now I have zero letters waiting to be written, so I think it's the best time to make another mail update - now that we actually are back on track with them, haha!


So, let's begin from the oldest. I got this lovely package from my dear pen pal from South Korea. I've written about Eun Yeong before, but to make a long story short: we started…
