Road trip chapitre 2

Sans les accents parce que je ne les trouve pas...
Apres avoir plier tout mon bardas a Lulea, en route direction la Finlande, a Oulu.
On a passe 3 jours chez Anna-Sofia (aka Ansku, ma disons tres bonne copine finlandaise...) ou plutot chez sa soeur : un peu de visite, de fete , de repos, de barbecue, parfait. C'est cool d'etre avec des Finlandais en Finlande!

Second blog session of this trip! and many thing to tell about.

After packing all the rest of my stuff in Lulea (a LOT...) , straight ahead to Oulu in Finland.We spent 3 nice days at Ansku's sister's place : a bit of sight-seeing (wether was not really better) a bit of partying, barbecue, resting (quite a lot hehehe). Good to hang around with finnish people in Finland !

The Simojoki sisters : Anna Sofia and Alina

Le neveu de Ansku est trop drole.
Une fois de plus c'est dur de dire au revoir, surtout quand on pense qu'avec 3000km, c'est pas demain la veille que je passerai par Oulu...

12h de voiture plus tard on arrive chez Saara une autre pote de Lulea. Elle a un "summer cottage" a l'ouest de Helsinki ou on a ete accueillis par toute la famille : 4 generations tous ensemble dans un chalet sans eau courante ni electricite... retour aux sources!

Ansku's god-son is really funny. Kind of hard to say good bye once again though... not easy to imagine the next time i see her when it deals with 3000 km...

12hours by car later, we arrive in Saara's summer cottage. We have been warmly welcomed by a very friendly finnish family. This cottage is west of Helsinki, next to the sea, with no running water or electricity. An amazing place ! We stayed there 2nights, with Ivan (the Slovenian fellow...) as well and with 4 differents generations from kids to grandparents! Hard to communicate when some don't speak english but nevermind.

Que faire quand on a pas d'auto-radio...When no stereo in the car : Gispsy syle!


Ensuite, retour a Helsinki. Ma deuxieme fois dans cette ville que j'adore! Ni trop grande ni trop petite, architecture tellement differente.
Une fois de plus on est acceuillis par une pote a moi, Elina, dans un petit appart en plein centre.
Apres ca, embarquement pour Tallinn en ferry!

Then back to Helsinki! I love that town : not too big neither too small, really nice people, cool buildings... Once again, we lived with finnish people : visiting with Saara and Ivan still but also a bit with Elina. We spent 2 nights at her place right in the city center. Visit of some catherdrals, the national museum.

Then we took the ferry for Tallin... and here we are! The town looks amazing... so that's all for now!
