2017 -YEAR REVIEW

                                                        1. The biggest spring cleaning yet!

 We started a major cleaning of our house during spring which resulted in throwing away a huge amount of old things we don`t need from the attic, the basement, the storerooms (including the ones outside on the yard), the second floor and part of the first floor. 
 The purge was at its highest during spring for about 2 and a half months. But it also continued throughout the whole year including last week. It was a continuous process. We are proud of what we managed to do. Needless to say, I can breathe easily now. 
                            
                                                      2. Feng Shui

 What we did was very feng shui friendly. We also rearranged so many pieces of furniture that now my home has a better energy circulation so to speak.

                                              3. Charity and setting a good example.

 We donated a few huge bags of clothes for charity. We have prepared more ready to be shipped in 2018. 



                                              4. Renovations. 

 We started making renovations on our second floor during summer. We updated our bathroom and one of our bedrooms. The updating process is to be continued in 2018.



                                               5. Looking forward to New Year`s Eve. 

 After all the work we`ve done we can welcome the New 2018 pretty satisfied with ourselves. 

Countdown...

Tar soap Milva REVIEW

                                            * Natural toilet pine tar soap *

- pine tar has a softening, hydrating, anti-aging, healing effect on the skin of the face, head, arms and body

My personal opinion: First of all its smell is maybe the only con about it. But as I used it to wash my face with it, I experienced all the good qualities this soap has to offer. It made my skin so baby-like soft that I hardly recognized it. It washed away all grease very easily. It is also hydrating so I now prefer it to many gel-washes, including the Garnier micellar one. It also removes make-up so I don`t have to worry about that too. And its price is pretty affordable. As much as I hate the colour brown, this soap is definitely a product I recommend, especially if you`re on a budget.

My personal opinion: One of the best bioproducts out there. It`s very delicious too. The tomato flavour is what makes it so special and I hardly can resist its taste. I recommend it strongly. 

Star Wars : The Last Jedi movie review

My boyfriend and I went to see the movie last night. The movie was splendid. In our opinion, episode 8 was better than episode 7. I`ll explain why.

                                                                 SPOILER ALERT !!!!!!

 If you haven`t seen it yet, you better NOT read this article.

 So basically, there were fewer desert views and fight scenes on the ground. There were more close character scenes where you could analyse their specific behaviour. It was more self-explanatory, yet interesting. There were also incredible scenes with Kylo Ren and Rey. Their subtle romance from The force awakens now furthers. There is this very intense and romantic scene where the palms of their hand touch. And you know me - I`m a sucker for a good romance story. And it was meant to be a romantic fantasy from the beginning with the proportions of ancient Greek romance myths, it was meant to be epic, according to the director. And, I have to say, the last episode is just this - epic and it also quickly grew on me. It became my favourite episode so far. And there`s a lot of reasons why. Not only it appeals emotionally to a lot of people but one can truly appreciate all the great work all the people behind the movie has put so it became such a great movie.
 Of course, I can`t fail to mention the unfortunate death of one of the crew members - Carrie Fisher. It pains my heart what happened to her. With nostalgia, I watched her act and I kept saying to myself that this woman will be remembered as part of something truly epic and big that inspires and affects a lot of people. Something that creates a good experience for all of us. This role was the most emblematic for her. In the end of the episode, she`s still alive, although there is a scene where she almost dies.
 Another very interesting character is Kylo Ren...

Remember his atrocious mask? Well, there`s very good news. He breaks it in a fit of rage. And like I said, the sexual tension between him and Rey is so much and fans even have published a video on youtube with songs from Fifty Shades of Grey. I can`t blame them. And, besides there are certain parallels between the two couples. He`s powerful, now that he has killed Snoke, the leadership of the Empire has fallen on him. He tries to persuade Rey to come with him and rule along with him. She refuses. See what I mean? She`s decided on the light side. He`s decided on the dark side. Or is he? Rey still has hopes for him. But who knows...

All the more reasons I can`t wait until the next episode.
