In English long time no see

Good afternoon my friends

I've been thinking of writing in English for a while and now it's the time.

There’s some problems in my keyboard with letters w and g so don't be suprised if they're missed at some point. There's not so much g's and w's in Finnish so it makes more effect when writing in English.

The reason I want to write in English is that I think it's more interesting for people from somewhere else than Finland to read about life of ordinary Finnish man.

Because I'm very normal.

Just waking up every morning, eating breakfast, going to work, going training, some reading, some writing, some thinking and then early sleeping. No partying, no girls, no drugs. Except coffee, sugar and sometimes snus.

Maybe the most special thing in my life is the place I live. Finland. Especially Eastern-Finland and the village called Sulkava. Here lives 2500 people and it's in the middle of fucking big forest which runs over Ural mountains through Siberia desert and whole Russia. Here is also something like million lakes around and it's only few meters from my balcony to the shore of Saimaa. The largest lake of Finland and the 4th largest lake of Europe.

I’m about to start in new job next week. For now I’m working as a care assistant in sheltered home. I’ve been doing this five months for now since I came back to Finland from four months travelling Nepal, India, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and Poland. The new job which starts next week is office job in metal workshop. Here in Sulkava.

So it’s winter here now. There’s half meter of snow on the ground and temperatures varies between –10 and –35 celsius. So you need to wear warm clothes if you wanna go outside. When it gets beyond –25, French-made cars won’t work pretty much at all anymore. “Best french’s you’ll find from barbecue.”, they says hereabouts.

Week ago I started “mojo”-mornings. For me it means getting up early, eating fucking nutritious, filling and delicious breakfast and getting my ass on the move immediately. Writing certain amount of words also includes to my “mojo”-mornings. Six mornings in a row. But there’s a pattern. The seventh morning is “okay”-morning. That means I do what the fuck ever I want, eat what the fuck I want, get up when I want and write if I want to. This is the seventh morning going now when I’m writing this.

I wanna tell you after being four months abroad travelling I decided to come back to Sulkava, my hometown. Because this is the best place in world.

I also play floorball in 4th division of Finnish Floorball Federation. We have two official floorball teams in Sulkava! Another one competes in 5th division. It’s the best team sports format in world, floorball. Believe me when I tell you.

I don’t know what the fuck I want to write. I just want to write. And I do. That’s it.

If there’s something you want to know about very normal life in nordic freezy part of world please let me know and I’ll spell it out in next post.

Also because I'm writing for you, it would be nice to know if you like more English or Finnish posts.

Love you so fucking much,

Panu
