Tampere - I made it!

Remember last month I was invited to meet Joannah and more members from Tampere in their beautiful city with Maikel? And I couldn't make it because of this awful cold I caught in Savonlinna? (It was NOT a hangover from Suomenlinna picknick, as Sami kept telling everybody.) Well, I definitely missed a nice picknick and swim at the Tampere lakes.
But now I've finally made it! I'm in Tampere!
Yoavick fom Israel who had moved to Finland last week to study here had invited me, and Tuula took us to his flat yesterday evening. The time we spent at her house close to the lake was so great, I really enjoyed it. She invited me to come and stay a bit longer whenever I feel like it. I will, I will!
Yoavick had been there in winter, and he said it was even better than summer. The lake frozen and you can skate, and you can ski. Plus her tiny house even has a sauna! Sounds lovely!
Well, last night Yoavick told me about his life in the kibbuz and his travels, and we went online to thank Pulina and Iia and Sov who had organized the wonderful weekend. Claudio who had moved from Italy to Finland was online as well, and just about to upload his pics and videos. We loved them! And so will you, when you click here.
And now I'm in Tampere center, online at the Tourist Information - they do have free internet access points in Finland provided by the cities and towns - , Yoavick is at the university for his first day of Environmental Studies, Justme aka Sebastian from Bavaria will come from Tuual's place soon to discover Tampere with me, and I just love all of this! :-))))
