Peace Beach

I like to call this beach/ lake peace beach, its somewhere I like come to get out of the house and chill out on a sunny day. So I just got A quick flick of one of the best little Suomi beach to relax and get a tan at in my opinion. Its located in Taipalsaari witch is about 15mins drive from Lappeenranta.

Photography Of Melbourne

When Kati and I were living in the heart of Melbourne's CBD we had a lot of free time up our sleeves, to go exploring around the city and take in some of its fresh art styles, dope cultures, sick old school buildings and its wild night life.. This pic^^ was taken at south bank just down from the casino I snapped this when I was skating home one arvo, I saw these stupid seagulls chilling and thought it would be a cheeky little picture of Melbs and what it looks like on a steezy afternoon skate..

This pic was taken just out side of our apartment on the corner of Collins and Queen street in the CBD. It was a creepy old abandoned mens lavatory that had been over run by the homeless and the lads, its full of graffiti and the smell of musty old men. Despite the grubbiness it still made a dope flick none the less, shortly after taking this photo, the council decided to fill it in to better its image so sadly it is no more.... But I can breathe a bit easier now when I walk home from a club/bar and not have that feeling that a crazed old homeless man will be jumping out with a syringe full of blood demanding for all my cash & belongings.... The council has done something good for once...

One day Kati & I had nothing better to do so we decided to go get some snaps around melbs this is the little cutie getting a fresh picture of Melbourne on Cannon camera whilst I did the cheeky pic with out her noticing but it turned out to be a fucking dope photo. The days you think aren't going to be exciting or the best always end up being some of the best in your life expect the unexpected.

Godly Latte

I made this sexy specimen of a coffee one day after work in Melbourne, this would have to be the most satisfying coffee I have ever made in my life. Cafe Latte with extra froth to perfection, I thought I  might as well share the picture of what once was the greatest coffee ever.....  

Big Ben's Bongo O'clock

"Big Ben in London" Close friend Jarryd Hasenkam and I both have a personal joke to do with  this historical landmark, such as Bongo O'clock. I managed to catch a rain free day in the "sunny old London" and cross off one of my personal goals to get a photo of big ben at 420. It turned out to be a sensational photo , exactly what I was hopping for.

Festive Sundays

Sunday afternoon spend down at the harbour at Lappeeranta Finland, I took this Photo ^^ whilst Kati & I were having a smoke listening to the music festival echoing in the background playing "classic Finnish rock" I had no idea who was playing but it set the mood for a chill afternoon.

 To recap everyone on the events that happened that day, Kati, Eve and I decided to go down to have a few beverages at the harbour little to our knowledge there was a harbour festival happening that day to exhibit the history of the harbour and the old boats that use to make their way to and from the city. If only I knew more Finish at that time because I had no idea what the fuck was happening it makes it harder to find out what is happening because the locals hardly speak any English. Lucky I had the girls with me or I would have been in a state of limbo with out them. Anyway I managed to get a few pictures of the historical boats from the late 1800's and the early 1900's. I apologise for such a shitty photo I used my Nokia lumia 820 and it has a terrible camera on it is probably the worst phone I have ever used. Maybe i'm being to harsh but i'm just used to the iPhones seamless technology, but i'm defiantly not a windows fan to say the least.

Summer House Bliss

One sunny summer day out at Kati's summer house as we watched the sun slowly make its way down to wake up the other side of the world. This was such a tranquil afternoon we were so free from the world, where time temperally stood still. As we sat with our drinks it felt like nothing else matered in this world we sat there free from work free from the busy city and free from the complications of life. It gave us the feeling that it would never end, true eternal happienes.. If ever I am troubled or upset this photo always brings me back to that feeling of bliss that we shared that sunny August after noon at the summer house....    

Thailand Mems

                                 

Thailand is one of the most beautiful countries I have ever been too despite how poor it is, I took this Godly photo in Ko Pha Ngan, when I went to the full moon party over New Years earlier this year.. This was Taken just before we went out to the famous mushroom mountain, by the name you should be able to imagine what happened there. I found my-self on the beach watching the beautiful sun set whilst I relaxed with a godly long island ice tea in my hand. 

Thailand was full of surprises every day had something new and exciting to offer. I got this tattoo a day before New Year's Eve probably the dumbest thing to do, not that I regret my tattoo or anything its just not a good idea to get a tattoo a day before the biggest party you are ever going to go to in your life is what i'm saying.. The lesson is don't follow drunken swedish girls to a tattoo parlour when you are completely wiped out of you're head after drinking copious amounts of buckets witch are insanely full of potent alcohol. At least I had full intension to get a tattoo somewhere on my journey through Thailand, and that I had a good design that I wanted for quiet a long time before hand, instead of doing something fucking dumb and getting some shitty tattoo that I would have regretted immediately after getting it, thankfully that didn't happen. I got this design off the saketattoocrew check them out over face book!!

History Of My AM'S

                                  

I bought these fresh 'AM ' sunnies at the sun shine coast plaza in Queensland. Such a fun day spent at the shops and down at the beach. I love the sunny coast it has to be one of the most chilled out / relaxed areas to live. best surf and its not over  looked by massive sky scrappers like down  at the Gold Coast. It was well deserved after my friend  Mikie and I spent driving 6.5 hours down from Gladstone to Brisbane, after I left my  job to go in search in a new life / career in Melbourne with Kati. I could hardly complain about the drive though because i didn't have a license at the time and 
made Mikie drive the whole way "thanks again Mike I still owe you" funniest thing though, before we drove down I installed a tv & x-box in the back of my car to make it a funner journey down, its also the dumbest way to spend your money..

                                  

   
But Defiantly no regrets whilst playing saints rowIII in the back of my car, still too this day its been the easiest road trip i've had to endure...

Helsinki Weekend!

      

One fun weekend in Helsinki, Finland exploring the historical city and its night life with two of my favourite Suomi girls. But it started off a bit ruff due to Kati (my girlfriend) and I going out the night before  on friday and we didn't really take it easy on the beverages needless to say we got pretty fucked up. It didn't help that we had a 3 hour car ride from Lappeenranta to Helsinki hung over as fuck either, but we did what all piss fit people  do and continue drinking to subside the hangover. One thing i've learnt from this weekend is that I'm lactose intolerant, due to drinking "kissanminttu" for the people that don't speak Finnish out there it is a milky type beverage similar to baileys but with a minty "white chocolate" taste that you mix with milk. I found out it defiantly is not the drink for me,  on a sunny day in Helsinki, nonetheless I  think it will be awhile before I attempt trying this drink again.

Later that night we found our selves at the Aussie Bar recovering from the milky shit, by drinking trusty old vodka red bulls and a tequila shot, that combination never fails to turn the night around. It still has me in shock me that I can travel to the other side of the world and still find my-self in a Aussie watering hole. After a shaky start in the park we were well on our way to a amazing night.
We then found our way to a funky little club called (Tavastia Bar/Night Club, in Helsinki) its quite an old building built in the 1930's but then became a bitch'in night life from the 1970's. It plays mostly alternative Bands & electronic-pop and not so much dub-step and top 40 shit you usually hear in main stream shit bars and clubs everywhere else. It reminded me more of an old school dance/ball from the 80's movies I watched as a kid with its big dance floor and stage and  to top it off it also had the cliche spinning crystal ball hanging  from the ceiling. Its easy to spend the whole night in this bar and i found my self stumbling  out at 3:30 in the morning throwing up be hide a  build but i never found my self regretting it the next day just for all the fun we had that  night.
