Summer in Finland! Yayyy!!!

It felt like the winter lasted for ever but now the SUMMER and warm weather have been here for few weeks. The nature is lush and green and blossoming, birds are singing, water is getting warmer every day and  kids will get off from school by the end of this week.

 Nights are full of light already, no dark time anymore until the end of July. Even if the growth season is so short these conditions give a lot of life power to the vegetables and berries. We get so great super food from our own gardens and forests if that is what we want.

People smile and laugh more in the Summer time. They greet one another and sometimes even so that they greet people they don't know which doesn't really happen in Finland too often. That is something I have been missing from my time in Boulder Colorado the smiling and greeting neighbors or passer-byes.

I enjoy so much of this time of the year, it feels like I would become alive again or wake up from hibernation and I guess there are many others who feels the same.
