Happy bday to me!πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜„πŸ˜€

Yesterday I hit 25 and today I woke up with “Booooo you’re old, go home!” kind of thoughts. Nevertheless I’m still beautiful and impossibly awesome in every meaning of this word! πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜ƒ
My boyfriend made my day so special by taking me to beautiful restaurant called Tratoria Leoni in Felino (via Ricco 42), 15 mins from Parma. Its located on the hill and the view is breathtaking! The city, italian sky and when it was dark also city lights… Stunning! Restaurant like that, away from loud, full of people centre, in quiet green area was a perfect choice to celebrate last night. Thomas made it even more special by surprising me with another birthday present- ring with big white pearl.  I wear it even right now cause I love it! Perfectly suits my home outfit that I'm happily rocking at this moment by the way hahaπŸ˜ƒπŸ˜€






The food turned out to be another huge plus for Thomas since he picked –as usual- something tasty for me.  For starter we had a bit of prosciutto crudo and salami, for the first dish tortelli d’erbertta (you can see it in the last photo), then we tried coniglio alla cacciatora (delicate and really good rabbit meat). Dinner was accompanied by red wine. We finished with delicious desert that you can see in the first photo. Not sure what it was, pistachios with chocolate, something like that. Whatever it was, I didn’t want to share it with my boyfriendπŸ˜„πŸ˜ƒ Word about the service: our waitress was nice and kind without pretending. I didn't even think to ask "How much longer will I have to wait?!" because everything was served with perfect timing. When it was done and it came to pay, we were not shocked with the price, it was similar to other restaurants in Parma. Just the bottle of wine, that usually we don't take, made our check a bit higher.

Beginning...

So... I made it, I'm here. I'm finally here! :-) and the beautiful blue sky, sun that shines sooo bright and some kind of strange sound made by even stranger animal say "welcome to Italy, Asia!"
It's just my first day in Parma but I've already got myself a pair of fantastic shoes. I enjoyed short walk that I took to get them (official version: to see my area) and although I still feel like I'm here again only for short vacation, I'm falling in love with that city that has so much to offer. Everybdy knows about great foods made in Parma- parmigiano reggiano and prosciutto crudo to mention  the most famous ones, also amazing Duomo di Parma, parcs that seem to be perfect for long walks or jogging... But I feel that's there's much (much!) more than delicious food and stuff that we read about in guidebooks. I know that here I'm going to find my place in this world. At least for a while ;-)
What's my next move? Hmm... let's start with finding an idea for an awesome dinner for me and my boyfriend :-) and then let's just let it all be... let's continue the beautiful, full of crazy happiness journey that life is and let's keep it awesome as it indeed is!
