Free days almost passed but still loving it ;)

Whoooaaahh, it's been great! I had 4 free days from work and must say I have really took the best out of it.

Day 1. Pure relax. I switched off my phone ( yes, you are totally allowed to do this, since mobiles people always think you need to be available at all times, but I do not agree, camoon, we all need some alone time sometimes), I slept around 13 hours, I walked to my neighbour to get some morning coffee ( 3 o'clock in the afternoon...), came back home and did absolutely nothing, just sat down and allowed complete laziness to roll over me. When working hard work with your body all days long, it is such a holiday to have a day like this sometimes.

Day 2. Enough of the lazines, though I did sleep another 13 hours. Then it was time for cleaning action. Made the house nice and tidy, then I hit the road to Turku city, which is by the way the European capital of culture this year, if you are interested visit Turku2011. I am not interested, to be honest, not at all. I see this "culture" taking money out of much more important things to spend the money for.

Day 3. Went to Caribia Spa in Turku with Sanna, the maker of Hemmot ( Dudes) that were seen in one park last summer. More relax time, it was wonderful! In the evening I saw all my 3 nieces, they are so adorable and again I was so happy to be the auntie of these little girls ( when they still can be called little, I know that for them being little is not going to last forever). Always happy to see family, it doesnt't happen too often anymore.

Day 4. After waking up to my youngest niece crying and some nice quality time with her, started driving back home. Now final relaxation, enjoying it with some South- African beats ;)

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! :)

Kun naapurin tyttö heräsi kuolleista

Elettiin vuotta 2015. Minulla oli jo muutama vuosi takana Malawissa ja asuimme mukavalla alueella melkein kaupungin keskustassa. Kaikki tunsivat minut, mutta itse harvemmin tiesin ihmisiä muuten kuin kasvoilta. Naapurustossa asui myös mukava nuori tyttö, ihan tavallista nuorisoa niin kuin muutkin alueella asuvat. Nyt kun ajattelen, niin siellä asui nuoria itse asiassa todella paljon. Malawissa 0-24 vuotiaat kattavatkin yli 65% koko maan väestöstä. Kaikki tapahtui pari taloa tästä meidän vanhasta talosta eteenpäin Eräänä päivänä tuli suru-uutinen, että tämä tyttö oli menehtynyt malariaan. Olin kuullut oudoista malariakuolemista, mutta se ei ollut koskaan tapahtunut näin lähellä meitä. Sanottiin, että hän oli ollut ihan hyvävointinen, mutta salakavala malaria olikin ehtinyt aivoihin asti ja hän menehtyi äkillisesti sairaalassa. Se, miksi tämä tapaus jäi erityisesti mieleeni, oli se, että käytin sitä usein esimerkkinä kertoessani ihmisille malarian vaarallisuudesta. Malaria on k...

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...
