OLYMPIC LONDON 2012

I had a great time in London last weekend. I`ve thought of writing more about what we did, what we saw... and I did write couple of stories (one was even published on sport portal Sportnet.hr (Rukometna razglednica iz Londona) and I wrote about ten sites that we visited in London. I event put the map of our route through London.

So, if you wanna see more pictures of London and get inspired, go check out my blog POSVUDUSHA. The text is in Croatian but soon I will put it in English. Till then, enjoy the pictures.

Thank you London for Olympic games!

I was in London this weekend and must say I had a great time!

I went to see the handball semifinals and finals. Croatian team played with France (but unforunately lost in semifinals) and Hungary (we won in finals for bronze medal). Besides this great sports event that is "a must" if you like sports, the Olympics are the biggest world event that gathers people from all over the world. You can realy feel this unity between people and everyone is happy, enjoying themselfes, smiling... It is a great experience.

The finals for the bronze are just about to start (Croatia - Hungary)

Four Seasons Hotel Milano Opens the Door to the Spa




Among brick walls and 200-year-old vaulted ceilings in a 15th century former convent, renowned designer Patricia Urquiola has created a relaxing and luxurious atmosphere removed from the noise of the city.


The new Four Seasons Hotel Milan Spa, opened mid-July 2012, is a peaceful sanctuary with seven treatment rooms, a swimming pool, a Turkish bath, sauna, Scottish shower, fitness studio and signature hair spa.

The interior design incorporates materials that are native to Italy and unique in design, from warming stones to wooden walls etched with a beautiful pattern. Through a combination of warm colours and design techniques such as serigraphy, the Spa creates a relaxing environment for guests.

Four Seasons Hotel Milano invites its guests to experience luxury product houses La Prairie and Sodashi at the Spa. La Prairie combines the science and innovation of the 21st century with the art of cosmetics and thermal spa experience to develop offers that extend beyond traditional spa treatments.

The fitness area, which offers a personal trainer and yoga lessons, is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment from Technogym.

The new Spa will initially be open exclusively to Hotel guests. In the late fall, the Spa will be open to non-guests as well.
