That’s a wrap for a fun Halloween week! While living in California fall has become my favorite season with all the colourful pumpkins, harvest festives and the perfect weather. But it’s time to pull out the winter jackets and umbrellas now. ❄️ ~ San Francisco living! This is what you get when you order a ride in the city. Perfect for an introvert Finn. 🇫🇮 No small talk and no tipping. 🤖 ~ A weekend trip to Jyväskylä! Good time with friends, good food, smoke sauna and sights. Great memories in making. 🍬 ~ Head in Finland and feet in Sweden. This heart is on the border of these two countries and symbolises the relationship of the two border towns Tornio and Haparanda. ❤️ ~ Hyvää juhannusta! ~ Happy Midsummer from Finland! The weather is beautiful to experience the midnight sun and there is plenty of mosquitos if you would rather experience that! ☀️🦟 PR-matka; Viime viikonloppuna pääsimme @gosaimaa n vieraana kiertämään muun muassa Lappeenrantaa. Hiekkalinna ja vedyt olivatkin jo ennestään tuttuja niin oli mukava päästä näkemään vähän Lappeenrannan linnoitusta ja kahvittelemaan @kahvilamajurska ssa. Kiitos @vrmatkalla kyydistä Ekstra-luokassa, siellä oli rauhallista ja tilavaa (liput saatu). 🚂
