Subject: Post: We met Saija again at Madrid airport, she was returning home from Guatemala and had the same Finnair flight to Helsinki as we did. The flight to Helsinki was also relatively painless, although time difference started to make us kinda tired..200km by car to Turku from Timo's place, and we are now home again. Being back in Finland feels somehow strange, everything seems to be totally from a different world compared to Central America. Good three weeks is already enough to get adapted to a new place, and returning back also requires some time for orientation.We were hoping for all the snow having melted when we return, but that hasn't happened, there is still plenty of snow in Finland. Much less than used to be, though. The weather is decently warm +7C, compared to -20C when we left and spring is clearly progressing. So, I count this as success, we managed to skip the remaining winter, it's spring already. Having a proper warm shower (not ice cold, constantly changing between boiling and ice cold or being just a pipe on roof) was great for a change. :)Anyway, thanks for following the blog. Next destination will probably be either Asia or South America, maybe late in the fall or at the same time next spring. This was a great time to have summer holidays, so I might as well do the same thing next year, work all the summer and have holidays during the quiet (and cold..) first months of a new year.
