Streets of Pietarsaari.




1- There are rows and rows of line up little houses as if it were a village taken out of a fairy tale. Most of the houses are made of wood but other are made of concrete or bricks. Some are new but others are quite old. They look functional.
2- Most of them look from the 18th and 19th century. Some probably older.
3- They look like a fishing village in the north. In fact Pietarsaari it is on the North coast of Finland slopping west.
4- The picture on the photograph shows a peaceful street covered by snow on a winter day of February, minus 20 degrees Centigrade. There is nobody in the street because of the chilly temperature.
5- It was difficult for me to stroll along the streets in such cold days but it was amazingly beautiful and distressful. However, people were very friendly and we received a warmly welcome.

6- It’s been a wonderful experience since I had never experienced such thing before. I would repeat it, of course.
