And then to last week and to this place, that comes from my all time TOP-3. I weren't even planning to get there then, but while changing my winter tires to summer ones not too far from there I did start to wonder: why wouldn't I? I did figure out few reasons, but any of them weren't good enough.

Sadly someone have played idiot there since my last visit before this. Afterwards I've heard that some teenagers have been there few times, so now I just and really hope that it won't be start of steep downhill... this place is so amazing time capsule that it would be really, really, really horrible if it would be turned into ordinary chaos.

I wish that these photos can transfer you there too, or at least transfer even small amount of that mood to you too. It is so amazing. I've been in love with it since 2009... which tells something I suppose.

And that was it. I'm not sure can it feel as good as it did feel for me there but hopefully... at least as some level. But hey, we are not at the end yet! Traditional-off-topic-bonus-picture comes from 29.4.2017 (actually it was day after photos below), when winter did strike back (and I did get myself to Torronsuo national park):



That's it.

I can see why you have a happy feeling when you go back to see this little house. It sit alone, but looks like it was once full of life and laughter. The colors are warm and inviting. Even the figurines look fun and playful.( Except the one sad dog)

I really like Untold Stories....and would love to know the stories they could tell us, as i would also like to know who that lady is in the picture on the wall.. She reminds me of a Movie Star back in the 60's

I was thinking that this woman probably had some amazing dresses and clothing in that closest. She looks so elegant in that photo

You say it all really well: it is in all those things, mood there is so amazing in so many ways.

Yeah, I get same mood from that portrait too. I did again try Google picture search - with no results, so she still remains mystery to us.

Thank you very much.

That's right, elegant is the word. But that kind of girl in Finnish countryside... maybe, but probably not. I hope we will someday know story behind that picture.

Amazing stuff as always!! Your attention to detail and lighting is top notch.

Luckily it appears the local kids who have been going to this spot haven't messed with to much. Hopefully it stays that way! I love how untouched most of your locations are.

Thank you very much. And we really need to hope that. Would be so sad if place like this would get into that usual "chaos theory in practise" kind of thing.
