These pics are from southern Finland, my sister sends me pics sometimes. It is going to be quite cold in the end of the week, below -25 C.

Great photos. Looks really peaceful

It is peaceful here, especially where I live, far from the world’s main centers. Finland is a peaceful country.

I would like to live somewhere like that. I find life difficult here as the pressures and expense of living where I live grinds me down till I can’t cope.

Might move to Northern England, as at least there I could drastically reduce my expenses and financial pressures.

Living close to London is not easy as it drives prices up here

I think that prices are always higher near or in main population centers. Helsinki is more expensive than the place where I live.

What I find here is people sell up in London when they retire, and then get a place here (At the seaside) and they drive up the demand and living costs for locals.

See it a lot with people wanting landscaping done, as the amount of money they free up coming here does mean they spend on that kinda thing.

I just looked at a house 400 miles north, and it has 3 bedrooms and a massive garden for £140k. My 1 bed flat here was £161k. Nuts.

All males complete their mandatory military service. Females may volunteer to serve their military service. I am Corporal and a scribe.
