Breakfast in Naantali. Guesthouse Amandis is known for its “maailman parhaimmat vohvelit” (best waffles in the world), and they do not disappoint! 🧇☕️ @amandisnaantali


Return to Moominvalley… It was less busy this morning so we got to meet more characters and explore the nature trails down to the beach. We also caught two performances—entirely in Finnish! 😳🇫🇮❤️


The Snook looked rather askance at my Hattifattener eclair. 😂 (It tasted great though!) #nothingsuss


Spent our last afternoon in Naantali on a long hike to the church, lookout tower, beaches, and rocky overlooks. It’s funny how short summer is in Finland…



Important Note

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
