There's a really wonderful online column called "Ask A North Korean" (not sure if I can put a link, but it's easy to Google) by a defector. It's different than the usual stuff--she lived a middle-class (by DPRK standards) life, and she writes about the good along with the bad parts of growing up there. There are a lot of great blogs around with tourists stories, as well.jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14831297225499484216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073879527223490304.post-49104689828639737392013-01-29T12:16:41.996+02:002013-01-29T12:16:41.996+02:00Mistä tuo "Favorite stores in Helsinki?"...Mistä tuo "Favorite stores in Helsinki?" -kohdan kuva on otettu? :) Tämän lisäksi osaisitko suositella jotakin hyväksi koettua sarjakuvaliikettä Helsingistä (käyn sielläpäin visiitillä parin viikon kuluttua, kotikaupungissani kun ei kummoisia sarjakuvakauppoja oikein ole)?<br /><br />Tapasi kirjoittaa on todella kiehtova, ja kaikista teksteistäsi välittyy ihana aitous ja uskollisuus omalle tyylille.

Although it could originate from the film through my subconscious. :) <br /><br />I don't think I've ever been around orientals, but I've heard that rex and sphynx cats shouldn't be too allergic either, and still I get major symptoms from them. So I guess it depends on the person. And sometimes I don't get any allergy from <i>female</i> domestic cats, it's so weird.

Uskon enemmänkin tuohon luontaiseen siedätyshoitoon, eli kissojen kanssa olemiseen, mutta mulle siitä ei ole vielä ollut apua kun paha allergia puhkesi vasta teini-iässä. Rokotemaisia pistoksia välttelen viime tippaan asti jollei tehosta ole varmaa takuuta. Ja harmi että operaatio myös maksaa, sellaiseen ylimääräiseen ei yksinkertaisesti ole varaa jos teho ei ole varmaa. :/MothMouthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04639446997820132542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073879527223490304.post-80073829823162188932012-12-22T12:07:43.044+02:002012-12-22T12:07:43.044+02:00Valokuvista on kieltämättä vaikea päätellä ihmiste...Valokuvista on kieltämättä vaikea päätellä ihmisten pituutta :)MothMouthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04639446997820132542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073879527223490304.post-13920136255646087742012-12-22T12:05:55.884+02:002012-12-22T12:05:55.884+02:00People say that A LOT. :D Maybe I seem a bit older...People say that A LOT. :D Maybe I seem a bit older at times because I've mainly hung out with people that are older than me.

She's an incredible paper cutout artist from Tokyo who pictures mostly Japanese folklore, theatre and myths with a dark twist or combinations of different fairytales like Brothers Grimm. Her works are so impressive, like a very elaborated woodblock print or a church glass painting, she cuts the dark lines out of paper in such a delicate and intricate way that you wouldn't believe it's actually not painted or printed if you didn't stand directly in front of it... I was lucky to see one of her exhibitions and was simply blown away. I'm dreaming of getting enough money to buy one of her works - so far I have only two postcards. ;)<br />http://www.risafukui.jp/<br /><br />Cat allergy sucks, I can so relate. :/<br /><br />MomijiAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3073879527223490304.post-30773424593109554912012-12-21T12:01:24.527+02:002012-12-21T12:01:24.527+02:00I somehow never actually cared about your real nam...I somehow never actually cared about your real name.
