Hi there! Bye Meta, hello new platforms. I'm a Helsinki lover, born and raised here. I spent my early 20s in Prague, where I did all my first adult things: had my first job, met my husband, had a child... My hubby is a Czech-American, so the US has gotten very familiar too. Last year I lived in Norwich, UK.

So this account is about my little observations of Helsinki, Finland, Finnish oddities and the cultures I know, little bit of sporty stuff (which I'm not super serious about, so if you like some peer support of someone moving their bodies in their 40s, here we go!), books, arts, and of course our cat Mila 💜

I finished workshopping my novella today with my writing group. Now I’m left wondering what to share with them next week. I’ve begun playing around with a story I began a while back. I think this could become my next novel, and it’s set in modern-day Kitchener. If it goes the way I’m hoping, it will be a total romp with mages and genealogists and mall goths and grifters and old hippies and freaky angel shit. But for now, I only have ~1000 words written. #Writing #AmWriting #beginning
