An Open Letter to Finland’s President Sauli Niinistö
Dear Mr. Niinistö, I am deeply concerned about the current state of affairs in Finland. We left Finland in 2004 to travel the world. We have been living in 102 countries around the world, and travelled through countries devastated by the US, NATO, and Russia. The last three years we lived in Georgia , which is at war with Russia . There is a ceasefire agreement, but a peace accord was never signed. Russia – the second biggest arms exporter in the world right after the US – benefits from such instability.

Trapani: A Taste of Laid-back Sicilian Life
A taste of laid-back Sicilian life in Trapani, Italy. Trapani became quickly one of our favourites, and we ended up staying half a year. The city is nice and small with both the Mediterranean sea for lovely seaside walks and jogging and a mountain for hiking. Local lifestyle is laid-back, people friendly, vegetables good and reasonably priced, and there are lots of lovely stray dogs running around. What more could one ask for?

How To Fix Our World? Lessons Learned On The Road
New year, this time the Gregorian variant, is time for reminiscing and making promises to be broken. For us, it is a day just like any other day. We celebrated it by cleaning the house just like we did at Christmas. When you celebrate only a few days, you make all the other days feel less important. We choose to celebrate every single moment with the same intensity. Although humanity is pretty much a lost cause and the easiest fix would be our rapid extinction, there are some things we can do to fix our world. We figured them out on the road in 140 countries during the past 20 years .
