work eat sleep

It´s been long, forgive me, but I've been so tired, I think it's the fall depression.. Well, getting use to it now and still working hard, cleaning day after day, I don't love my work, but for now it's good. The next destination is still unknown, but I hope we come up with something soon :)

back in the normal life

Last week there was a day that i decided to look for work, seriously I had enough of this "doing nothing, hanging around" -period, so I logged in to employment offices web site and started to look what they could offer me. I found a place where they needed cleaners, today I went to job interview in this small cleaning firm and I GOT THE PLACE! So congratulate me for my new work and by the way a whole new area for me, cleaning, but it shouldn't be so hard and I'm so glad I got something to do, it was really getting boring. So you might be wondering what's up with Africa? You know sometimes you plan something and things just don't work out the way you planned and this is very true when it comes to Africa. Well, this is what happened to me, but there is always plan B C D etc. so no problem, I will find the way to go back there, because I know that it's something that I really want. My thoughts are there everyday more and more, driving my friends crazy talking

these boots are made for walking....

So what´s up... maybe I feel a bit like Lasse the dog in the picture, tired but happy. We´we turn to October, new challenges, new plans. I went to flea market last Sunday selling some old stuff I wanted to get rid of. Did quite good actually, not so much people because it was raining, but next time will be better :) The evening was nice, we went to propably the best local bar in town, just opposite the street where we live. Good music, playing pool and it was not a typical local pub ( räkälä in finnish), but a very nicely buddhish way decorated small bar. This time I don´t know exactly what´s going to happen tomorrow, in the morning I go back to Turku and then I continue with one day at a time. One thing I know for sure is that I take my backbag tomorrow for repairing, so it´s fit for the new adventures. And I found "new" travel shoes from the flea market! BYE BYE FOR THE OLD ONES AND WELCOME THE NEW PAIR WITH A REFRESHING NEW COLOUR! I HOPE THE REDS WILL SERVE ME AS WELL AS

Life

I went away for a week to work in Pietarsaari, what a beautiful old city in the coast! Exploring Finland, time is running, and things happen so fast. I've realized again that life can be very surprising sometimes, you just need to keep your eyes and heart open. Again I have a change of a plan going on, gladly I'm still remaining with some alphabets! Looks like I'm going to stay in Finland for some time longer, am I happy about it? Well, to be honest I would love to be under the sun somewhere warm and nice, but I'll work on a proper plan first so then I'm free to go.

east side

My friend Kalle was reading my writings and he was very sad that I forgot to mention his name and that now I'm actually in Joensuu, so for all of you to know he is a good friend ( and for the ladies, single!! i get u a pic later..) so if you ever plan to visit Joensuu ( for some strange reason I don't understand because there is nothing here... except Ilosaarirock and lot of snow!!!) you can always depend on Kalle. Today I'm going to visit a very special place and some very special people. they were a great help when I really needed it some years ago. And for that I thank them because I am able to walk on my own feet again! Saatiin vaparit JokiPojat - Fops Mestis peliin, mutta kiinnostaako se jääkiekko niin paljon?? NO EI! Ihmiset on niin erilaisia taas täällä ja johtuneeko liian pitkään kaupungissa (tai turussa..) olosta et kesti taas hetken tottua että tuntemattomatkin voi hymyillä toisilleen! :)

Exploring Finland

On the road again.. Came to Kangasala to see Anni and Allu, tomorrow I continue my way to east Finland, to the beautiful city of Tohmajärvi where I lived one of the best moments and years of my life! Good to be moving again, but fall is here, what can you do. It's time to fly away again.

crazy world

Feels like nothing really happens allthough everyday something happens.. strange.. These days I see people are back to normal life, summer holidays are over and schools have started. But nothing for me and it's really making me go insane every once and a while. But I've started to empty my place, get rid of all the unnecessary things, giving out some things to my friends to take care of, so basicly preparing myself to leave soon. Luckily the sun is still shining so the weather is not causing problems. I've started my new career with poetry, too bad it's still only in finnish, but I try to come up with some english poems soon :) Salkkarit koukku jatkuu, maanantaina ukkosti niin että oli TV poikki monta tuntia, ei kai siinä muu haitannut kun se et jäi salkkarit väliin. No nyt pidetään sit taas viikonloppu taukoa.. Turussa pörrää niin monta nuorta keskellä päivää että mä mietin käyköhän täällä kukaan oikeesti sitä koulua kun ne on aina täällä kaupungilla?? Mä luin eilen il

dreaming and cleaning

hey again, weekend is now left behind. I came back to the city on saturday, met an old friend and we went out in the night. Turku is a nice place to go out in the summer, too bad it's almost over. And the best looking people you also find in Turku :) Lot of tourists this time of the year, it gives some colour and different cultures on the streets. Sunday was my sister's daughters birthday, great party, good food! Time goes so fast, she already turned 6 and I think it was yesterday when she was born. We'll see after I come back from my trip, she's going to be a big girl! After the party we stayed at the house with my brother for some time and played with barbies.. of course with the birthday girl, not just me and my brother alone, don't worry :) I've realized that I haven't really done anything for almost 6 months, so today I started to do some cleaning. Stop being lazy... Because after all these days are just waiting for the time that I can leave again. Some
Just wanted to add this pic of me, it's just from one week ago. Don't know exactly what I'm pointing at, the wonderful sea I guess..

friends forever

I was so happy today because I sent my blog add to everyone and some friends I haven´t heard from a long time wrote me. I think sometimes you don´t keep in touch for a long time, but you never forget your friends. " You shouldn´t be in such a hurry that you forget your friends... They say that you need one minute to find a person that means something to you, one hour to learn to respect him, one day to love him, but a whole lifetime to forget him. " There´s one sad thing about travelling and meeting new people, because you never know are you going to see these people again. But when you meet someone again, it´s such a nice feeling! I got a big smile on my face today, thank´s to my friends who remebered me. Keep in touch! Pakko sanoo et vaikka syksy tekee tuloaan ja ilmat kylmenee ja tv syöttää meille kaikenlaista roskaa, ni ihanaa ku salkkarit tulee taas ;)

good morning and welcome

so I've finally decided to open my own blog, I try my best to keep it updated. This time I'm still in Finland, but soon I will start a new journey. The summer has been great, I'm glad I came home to spend it with my friends and family. I went away for one month, but that time was really good for me, I took a deep look inside myself and got many answers, learned a lot about myself. Now I feel the cold wind blowing so I think it's time to move away from the winter and find some sun :) but it still takes some time, hopefully i can go on september.
