Click here to see my name in an advertisement on the Valimo website (my name is horribly misspelled although I believe it's the Finnish phonetic form of my name).
My host family came to eat at 2, and I joined them briefly for some food. From the left: Pentti (Host dad's brother), Pentti's/Host Dad's mother, Aino-Kaisa (my host sister), Juho (her husband), Me, Pirkko Seesvaara (host mom), Eero Seesvaara (host dad).
My host parents, Pirkko and Eero.
The man himself, at home.
Aino-Kaisa is a musician and this family is very musically orientated so it was great playing for them especially. It was also a new play-time record for me: 3.5 hours in one day is a lot, so right now I'm exhausted.
There are a few new Vappu shots and Russia pictures but nothing post-worthy in my opinion. Both events were amazing nonetheless! And GO CANADA today against Russia in the ice hockey finals!
Tomorrow I am going to the Fazer (Finnish candy company) factory in Helsinki and on Saturday I'm heading to another city to meet more exchange friends for a get together. This is last full week of normal classes in school in Finland and there's only 20 more days until the Rotary Euro-tour! Epic.

Simo the Bass god here.
Haha I laughed out loud when I read the name :D:D DANTE DIADALLEVI :'D That is quite a mispell I must admit. But hey, you can't blame them for trying :D By the way you looked very cool in the valimo pictures :O Taru told me that you went shopping, good fro you (love the shirt, and love the hair, though I'm not sure if you did anything to that pile of... hair. A synonym for hair anyone?). I just spent a fantastic four days in Lappeenranta, I'll tell you all about it when I'll see you the next time! Have fun at Fazer and don't eat too much chocolate because in the factory there is a candy mountain that will fill you with sweet sugary goodness. You must go to the candy mountain candy cave, Dante.
