Sorry to keep everyone waiting!
I have been back now for a week, but it has been a hectic week and finally I have some time to update my blog. I have also had problems with downloading photos onto my computer so was only able to download today. Here is a quick update on what i have been up to this past week so enjoy...
Slovenian food and chocolate!
On the first Sunday back, Petra made a typical Slovenian meal called Burek for Sunday lunch...YUM! I think she sensed I was missing the Slovenian food already;) 
We also made sure to buy some traditional Slovenian chocolate for Marko, as it is his favourite chocolate from back home.
Petra's Basilica lives on!
Before we left for Slovenia, Petra had bought herself a Basilica plant. The leaves are then dried from time to time and used for cooking. The responsibility of the survival of the plant was handed over to our Italian roommate, Elena while we were gone. When we arrived back we had seen that Elena had done an outstanding job at looking after the plant and it had grown quite a bit in the 10 days we were away...
Early Spring in Oulu
Petra and I arrived back to a really much warmer Finland...average temperatures being around 1-3 degrees!
One of the first mornings back we woke up to Oulu covered in snow after it had snowed the whole morning. However that snow quickly disappeared as the days became sunnier and warmer as the week went by.Our building being "kissed by the sunbeams"...
Tuesday morning after class Daniel and I decided to drive to a place 4km from campus where he could go cross-country ski and I could take a long walk as it was a beautiful Spring day, too good to stay indoors!
Daniel off on his ski's...
I took a nice long walk (1.5hrs) through the forest, taking photos while Daniel was ski-ing.
