Porvoo, Finland - 30th April 2010
By: Delenna
My host threw me a suprise birthdayparty! Yes, my birthday was allready but that's why this was such a suprise
Everyone was there: Gary Boldie, Banyo, Synapse, Poppy McVee, Zac, Hueso, Alfonz, FoxForce and Hugo - even recently refound Jou Lu!
I had a doughnut cake! My friends gave me a present too! I got Moomin postcards, Moomin magnets, one Swedish coin, one Finnish coin, Swedish magnet... Aaawwwww!And the card said "Priority mail - you're important"!
And there were balloon figures (my host had just learnt to do dogs and giraffes). We played with them the rest of the evening
I will miss these guys when I leave I've allready packed, my exchange year in Finland is soon to be over.

Porvoo, Finland - 1st May 2010
By: Delenna
After my party I decided I shouldn't hesitate any longer - or I'd change my mind and stay here. And I do miss my mom and brothers... I've had fun here in Finland (and in the foreign places I've been), but all good things muct come to an end. So, I'm hopping in this envelope and hope it takes me home fast and safe!
My final serenade to this country, as a thank you (credits to the Monty Python man):
Monty Python: Finland
Finland, Finland, Finland,
The country where I want to be,
Pony trekking or camping,
Or just watching TV.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
It's the country for me.
You're so near to Russia,
So far from Japan,
Quite a long way from Cairo,
Lots of miles from Vietnam.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
The country where I want to be,
Eating breakfast or dinner,
Or snack lunch in the hall.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
Finland has it all.
You're so sadly neglected
And often ignored,
A poor second to Belgium,
When going abroad.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
The country where I quite want to be,
Your mountains so lofty,
Your treetops so tall.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
Finland has it all.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
The country where I quite want to be,
Your mountains so lofty,
Your treetops so tall.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
Finland has it all.
Finland has it all.

Leonard is now home safely and enjoying his sleep - he was very happy to travel but happy he's at home for the time being... :-)
