Perfect Valborg and 1st of May! I’m at Emil’s place, and we just came back from a walk around town. Some Porvoo-friends showed up and we had some wine and some funnel cake. Great cathing up! I got all the gossip I’ve missed out on. Then we visited an outdoor party-place, but realised that there […]

Streets of laughter, streets of pain
Here we go, new week. The weekend was great, saw a lot of friends and family, and now I’m at work with a lot of new energy. Yesterday me and my supervisor planned my competence test and that was a lot of fun. I didn’t think we could come up with a reasonable idea in […]
It’s all about now
SPRING! I’m wearing my half-fake-leather-jacket open and driving my moped illegally fast around town and sitting outside for four hours in a row without minding the wind or the still kind of-frozen ground. It’s been an amazing couple of days. I really enjoy working at HBL, I got an interview for a summer job, and […]
The trees they fall down on their own
Two pictures from monday, we had a Youth Editorial meeting for the newspaper Östnyland. I have an article about easter and easter eggs haha in today’s newspaper, and then next week and the week after that we have election specials, so I’ve got the columns for both weeks. Right now I’m in the archipelago, spending […]
And it’s all so strange when you think about it
Since last time. I’ve been to a really interesting lecture about gender studies that had no point. I also attended a workshop about HBTQI-youth, being the only HBTQI-youth in the room. And then I had my very first job interview for a possible summer job at Porvoo city, doing some office work. So now we’re […]
You’ve got nothing to lose
Here you have some sunny Porvoo-pictures! The last 5 are from today. I had Wednesday off from school so I’m attending the Days for Finn-Swedish Youth Work, here in my hometown. I represent FSS, but I since we’re in Porvoo there was a lot of talk about the Youth Council as well. And […]
Seems like I’ve been running in the wrong direction
Oh how wonderful and positive everything feels when the sun is shining! It’s spring in Finland, and I’m wearing Vans and my spring-jacket! Last weekend I was the host at a regional music event (competition that you can’t call competition since it’s an opportunity for youth to stand on stage and get positive feedback) in […]
Don’t wanna waste it
There was this time in my life when I the only thing I wished for was a friend. And in a cold bus a foggy morning, this girl catches my eye for a second and I think to my self that it’s another stupid girly-girl and she thinks to herself that there’s some random boy […]
Holding hands
Ridiculously beautiful weather for a funeral. One of the most sorrowful days I’ve ever lived through. A small party of 20 family members gathered to remember and honor L in the small church of Porvoo. It hurts so bad. Seeing your loved ones cry and realising that they know the horrifying truth that we’ll […]
Lately I’ve been counting stars
Such a beautiful weather today! Especially in Porvoo, almost as beautiful as this, 2 years ago. But that was probably the only really good thing. I stayed up too late, called a friend in the morning, had just fallen back to sleep when I had to get up to do a workthing (8.30-ish, school started […]
