It’s time for my last post in this blog. The exchange is officially over as I’ve been on Finnish soil for a couple of days now. Thank you to everyone who made the time awesome and thank you to all of my readers! The blog was a lot more successful than I ever thought it would be: I’ve been updating it and people have been reading it. I don’t think my mom’s been the only reader as there’s been over 4,500 visits from all over the world.
The experience was something I’m not even going to try to put into words, so I decided to tell it with pictures. Looking over all the pics brought up a lot of great memories, and I’m sure not everyone is in these pics, but there’s too many to choose from. If anyone of the exchange people feel like commenting for the final time, here’s your chance! Thank you again to everyone! Enjoy the final set of pics!

Aga and Alex, when you still needed a coat in Cannes

One of too few dinner parties

The American dude and Lindsay in St. Paul de Vence

How we opened a wine bottle in the train

Sometimes even strangling people was fun

Sophie didn't like waiting in Brussels

Experiencing Heineken

The scarf that got lost and was found again

When I taught Julian how to open a bottle with an umbrella-ella-aa-aaa

Sometimes people played the piano outside

When it rained in Monaco

People doing funny faces

Wessel pulling off his moves. I don't think they worked.

The American dude doing what the American dudes do, I guess?

Hilary calling a random person

Swedes being Swedish

When we got backstage

Arzu and Jakob. They're German so no funny jokes here.

The night I don't really remember

Miro pulling off his moves. I'm not sure they worked either.

Just chillin'

Warren explaining how it is

The Asian people are short

Not totally sure what's going on here

Girls, girls, girls

A Swede and a Finn in total harmony

The time my cellphone still worked

I forced my way into playing a piano in a restaurant in Cinque Terre, slightly under the influence. Well, I say slightly..

School's out

And that's how it was
Although I was not a part of it (happy I made it into one of the pics in this entry though!), I have truly enjoyed following your adventures on this blog. It’s sad that it is over and I will really miss reading your funny comments and great photos. Thanks for keeping it updated for us back home! xox
Timo – your captions made me laugh out loud at work slightly embarassing but well worth it. I hope the site still stays up so I can come and reminisce on all the good times and classic exchange moments. Glad to hear you made it home in one piece!
Miss you already! But hopefully we can meet up again in the future. 🙂 Do you think you could continue to send me the link’s to picasa? I saw a few here that I missed when we went over them.
I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your exchange. It wouldn’t have been the same without you! As Eddy would say, see you sometime.
Timo, this was a great blog and your pictures are outstanding! I hope to have the same photography skills one day.
I will forever remember the umbrella trick hahaha. We certainly enjoyed a lot of great memories in Europe, that I will not soon forget. Enjoy your summer and keep up the photos and the blogging!
Sincerely,
Julian
