warm greetings from Jarvelä.

A very warm invitation from my partner's auntie came to us a couple week before, asked us if we can come to their home in other city. It was a really exciting and lovely invitation for us.  

After some arrangement to make, last Saturday we went to Jarvelä to visit them. It took about 1 hour to reach here from Helsinki with local train. It was a country side, peaceful and serene place. It was a lovely moment to share with, meet new relatives, looking at photos album ( she showed me Tibet trip! it was breathtaking ), laughing, eating wonderful home cooking, and even though some of them didn't talk in same language we can still share the moments together, how awesome is that?

Sometimes i was sad because i still can't speak their language ( well "Rome wasn't build in one day" anyway ). But human are wonderful creature to begin with. Even we don't speak same language, a genuine kindness, smile, and caring act are always a winner. I still remember my dad in law, talking Finnish with a girl who talked in Indonesian, asking for some photos taken together but "strangely" they can still laughed together and have fun. 


it was heartwarming.


Some random though, just realized a thing that there is a true-real-life cooking dash person here ( yes! that time-management-game-that-make-you-crazy ). I was surprise how people work, like one of my partner's auntie who is a cook, she manage a canteen for about 50 people everyday ALONE! suddenly the picture from that game playing in my mind...LOL... O___o


Anyway, I want to share some photos that i took from lake there.


enjoy!
