The very busy year of 2018

This year was very busy! I graduated in history. But I also had possibilities to make some great trips.


The work is done.

It's time to learn something about Bryssel and EU.








The peace of the national park in Finland



The big city of Taipei and..






.. the beautiful Taiwan.

Back in Finland and soon visiting the old houses of Loviisa and Porvoo with Petri and Sirkka.


This was our place to stay over night




The autumn took me to Georgia. I enjoyed the good food and wine. The country had old churches and the remains of the glorious past. Ofcourse, I had to have a bath in an old hamam. And the curiosity was the museum of Stalin.

The famous man of Georgia



The year ended in Strasbourg, Capital of Christmas




One of the highlights of the summer 2017

Finally I saw the cave paintings. I had dreamt of this for years! My husband, me and a couple of friends hired a car and visited the cave of Niaux in France.




The entrance to the cave

The amazing country of Etiopia

I had a chance to visit Etiopia, in the heart of Africa, with lovely people from our church. The local church had organized this trip to Etiopia. We met many friendly locals during this journey, admired the mountains, trekked in the beautiful nature and studied the old cultural heritage.
