Finland (I am Still Alive)
To begin, I would like to apologize for my lack of posts, especially to any one that has regularly checked for updates. I know how annoying it can be to check something that should be updated regularly and find it never to be so.
Anyhow, I have finally gotten the inspiration/time/energy to sift through a constantly growing pool of photos to make some new posts and if all goes as planned, I will put up a flurry of posts in the next weeks and try and get up to speed. Given the fact I have been settled comfortably here for a time and am not experiencing new excitement every day, it will not be too hard to do so, I hope. I will likely end up posting many photos with little commentary once I finNish (aye ;-) some brief descriptions/introductions to my life in Tampere.
I hope you are all doing well over there and that the politics and madness, which appear so bizarre and twisted from this perspective, aren’t getting you down. I must say, the longer time I spend in a well-oiled and more-or-less healthy society (don’t get me wrong, Finland has its problems) the more unbelievable and unrealistic the situation in the US appears. Enough of that though, here are some photos.
I first want to post a few current photos of the recent snowstorms, given how early it is here and how beautiful. I will then try and give some kind of chronological, or subject orientated posts so it will be as though I was posting the whole time.
Meow!

I thought of you yesterday, when listening to the new socialist senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont mentioned Scandanavia as a model that American politicians should look up to.
I also watched An Inconvenient Truth last night, and I'm glad there's still snow in finland.
What the sentence should actually read:
