human touch.

spending my first midsummer here in finland i can still feel the bonfire’s heat on my skin, the rain that ran down my cheeks and the joy i felt surrounded by people i dare to call friends. i spent so much time last week thinking about friendships, the ones i had, have and will make some day. i was wondering what finland will mean to me in say 30 years, if i will still remember the warm fire, the narrow road we drove down to the lake. sometimes it all feels way too much, having moved around europe waving hellos and goodbyes has somewhat taken its toll, i feel way too old sometimes. i remember myself 2 years ago: i was so afraid the world would turn without me, so afraid i would never get out of where i came from, so afraid i would never make the experiences others were talking about. now i know i can make those experiences whenever and wherever i feel like, they are not just happening, i can make them happen.

i believe.
