Vanvien
Our favorite place in Laos. Great backpackers spot, with lots of activities, like climbing, rafting... Amazing scenery.
Fake Chinese iphones in display in Laos
You have them in smaller sizes and more colors than the real one. The UI upper layer is a copy, but the applications are bad copies of windows aps. The touch UI works 50% of the times. Yet, it has many more applications that the iphone has out of the box.
Not sure if we want to go back...
I think we found the paradise (dont tell anyone) Is this little beach in north of Krabi in Southern Thailand

Miracle Breakfast
Matti prepared the "Miracle breakfast" today. The miracle fruit plant produces berries that, when eaten, cause sour foods to taste sweet http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/28/dining/28flavor.html

How to organize a Spotify party
1. Everyone has to pick up a song that reminds him of a story that telss while the song plays
2. As the first rounds go, people are encouraged just to go and play a song. Since you start playing songs that mean something to you, people listening have memoris and make connections of other songs that come to mind. They go and play enriching the selection
3. Styles move and after a few hours the music style goes into more dance or faster tempo, peaking with something like "Nirvana" :-)
Then you collect the history, create a shared playlist and there you go you have the perfect party playlist.

Spotifying
My iTunes library just became obsolete after installing Spotify. I also managed to connect it to my wireless speakers using Airfoil, so I can control everything with the Mac remote controler, NIIIIIIIICE! So who wants to share playlists?

Shooting in Barcelona
We woke up this morning at 5am after hearing a screaming conversation with what seemed to be drug dealers talking with some foreign accent. They moved away from my window and then we heard 4 shots... We could not sleep after that.

Cairo
Visiting Cairo was like revisiting my memories on India. The smells, the dirty streets, the chaotic traffic, no rules, the people trying to get an extra dollar from you. All the negatives are compensated with the overall experience of experiencing live and a new place. Streets full of life. Men and women behaving so differently.
The Pyramids are great. The city is literary in the middle of the dessert. Sand all over. We were at the five stars Hilton Golf resort. A bit too far from anything for my taste. And since Cairo is not too warm this time of the year, I could not really enjoy much outdoors.
I went to see the Egyptian museum and saw the Tutankhamen sarcophagus, really worth seeing it, as well as the rest of the museum. I went then to the bazaar and got almost lost there. Some of the streets get mixed with private home corridors and back stores, making from the place a labyrinth.
I tried the local pipes and avoided eating anywhere else than in the hotel, but still got a bit affected the stomach.
Istambul
I did a stop over in Istambul of about 3 hours, so I took a taxi and went to see the city. Although it was night the city changed completaly my perception of Turkey. Istambul could be any city in Spain. But a really beautiful one. I liked it so much that I promised myself I will be back with Tanje. The Bosphorus bridge and the Mezquites are impressive. The old town is like old towns are supposed to be, fill of life, smells, little shops. A mix of East and West.
Pare unas 3 horas en Estambul e mi camino a Cairo. Cogi un taxi y me fui a ver la ciudad. La verdad es que ha cambiado mi idea de lo que es Turquia. Aunque era de noche pude ver una ciudad que no tiene nada que envidiar a las ciudades mas modernas de Espana. El puente del Bosforo es espectacular, pero tambien lo es toda la costa, la ciudad antigua y las mezquitas. Una mezcla real de este y oeste.

Fuengirola
Now that the weather in Finland is quite disappointing it is a good time to remember last fall when Tanje and Noel spent 5 weeks in Fuengirola and I went down to spent with them most of the weekends. It is notorious the big difference in temperature between these 2 cities in Europe. They had a great time going to beach every day after school. The place is not very beautiful but remains a proper lively town with a good mix of Scandinavian expats and locals.
Ahora que el clima en Helsinki es bastante pobre, sin nieve, gris y frio, viene bien recordar las 5 semanas que Tanje y Noel pasaron en Fuengirola en Octubre. Yo pase bastantes fines de semana con ellos. Ek tiempo fue fantastico a excepcion de un par de dias de fuertes tormentas. El pueblo nos es muy bello pero tiene mucha vida y una buena mezcla de escandinavos retirados y locales.
New Year in Spain
We spent New Year in Zaragoza with my parents. For the first time we ate the grapes at El Pilar square with the final countdown, fireworks and the Tv cameras, it was super crowded and good weather. We also went to see the family in Alcaniz and in a trip full of fog one day skiing with Tanje in Formigal with great weather. We had dinner with Francisco and PAtricias family. Noel played all night long with Francisco and Alvaro. Noel had a great time waiting for the three kings who this year arrived on the evening of the 5th :-)
Pasamos el anyo nuevo en Zaragoza con mis padres. Este anyo por primera vez comimos las uvas en la plaza del Pilar, con fuegos artificiales, las campanadas y las camaras de television. Tambien fuimos a ver a la familia a Alcaniz en un viaje con mucha niebla y pasamos un dia esquiando en Formigal con un tiempo fantastico. Francisco y PAtricia nos invitaron a cenar y Noel lo paso genial jugando con Francisco jr y Alvaro. Lo mejor del viaje fue las espera de los reyes magos que ete anyo llegaron un poco antes la tarde del 5 :-)
