Au revoir...

The first ever time in Finland. Of course, a motorsport campervan trip... August 2002

"We'll meet again... don't know where, don't know when...."

Oh no that's far too nostalgic for me... !

I am due to leave within twelve hours. I am frantically burning DVDs and CDs and making final to do lists, so I have not yet had time to articulate the emotions that come with leaving.

So far there have been a number of emotional goodbyes and today, four of the hardest yet to come...

I vacated the house the other day. It was pretty emotional, despite the presence of a couple of strange Turkish men looking at me like I was extraordinarily emotional and amusingly feisty.

I will write more on the plane, because while there has been lots of time for contemplation, the thoughts are all messed up in my head with to do lists and notes to self ... In the meantime, until I post, I have thrown a lot of photos up on Smugmug, so you can see if you can spot yourself, of if you're a stranger, see if you would fancy any of my friends!

Nakemin Suomi.

I'll be back...
