Oh Finland, Finland endless!
's been 11 days away from Lappeenranta, we went through about two thirds of the northern state. From the south covered with thousands of lakes we went to long stretches of pristine forests of the north. The thing that probably has piu'colpite the days are endless, the sky lit by the sun until one o'clock at night. Another thing that struck us, brutally struck, and 'speed' with which our portfolios are empty! Here the cost of living! To make you understand better, if the first € 15 includes breakfast, lunch and dinner for all three, we now spend around 20 € per meal! Not to mention the night: you do not understand why 'plant here two tents in the camping costs as a warm and comfortable cottage!
meetings are not missed: most important are those with Juhanni, which made us stay for free in its camp in which there was an ongoing camp for kids, offering local sausages cooked over the fire together, the other meeting 'took place in Tervola out supermarket, with "Nino", a gentleman a little 'touched with which you and' entertained Pella which the blast from the few words translated Routard in finlandese (salmone, latte, fiume, renna affumicata), mentre Nino non faceva altro che ripetere "joo" (sí in finlandese). Ultimo incontro importante e´ avvenuto oggi, a Rovaniemi, con Babbo Natale, insieme al quale abbiamo scattato una foto pagata a peso d´oro.
Un´altra esperienza interessante e´ stata la notte passata in un campeggio completamente abbandonato, forzando la serratura di uno dei cottage.
Domani, dopo esserci concessi questa sosta, ripartiremo verso il vero e proprio nord. A pochi chilometri da qui oltrepasseremo infatti il Circolo Polare Artico e se tutto va bene in una decina di giorni dovremmo raggiungere la meta.
Per ora e´ tutto poiche´ ci stanno cacciando a calci dalla library!
you soon!
hello!
