Moi from Nokia Land! There is not too much to say... as expected it is amazing getting away, being in green places with clean air and good friends and massive breakfasts and lots of exercise. Matilda and I spent the weekend in Helsinki at her Mum's and on Monday took the train up to Jyväskylä,where she and her boyfriend Henkka live. Working most of yesterday in the Jyväskylä University library was offset by rowing out to a little island for a rainbow trout dinner and sauna afterwards. Rough. Some photos for you before I start on one final essay. Missing you all!

| Flying into Finland, all you see are islands... so many islands. |

One of the islands up close, from a ferry boat, this time on the
way to Suomenlinna. |

| Picnic in the park with Matilda, Annika, and Kukka |
 |
This is what you think it is: a sauna boat.
The most ingenious invention ever.
Classic Finnish people and their saunas... |
 |
| Prime real estate on Suomenlinna. |
 |
| Kukka, Matilda, and baby Viivi, who officially loves ferry rides. |

| Token tourist shot. |

The biggest church in Helsinki, known fondly as
'the Church of the Judgement'. |

| Rowing around. |
 |
| Dinner time. |
 |
| Perfect. |
