Hellou Friends from far away

I'm 66 years old and one year ago retired from my work as a special teacher and pre-school teacher in kindergarten. I live in Vantaa, near Helsinki our capital.
I have two daughters (27 & 30 years old), they both live in Vantaa, too. My lovely grandsons were born in May 2018 and in April 2021.
It is so important and lovely to see them growing up and spend time with them, especially now when I am free from work and have all the time :)

I like to read a lot, for example detective stories. Donna Leon and her police officer Guido Brunetti from Venice are also my favorite because I have been in Venice and seen many of those places written in books. I like to read nordic crime stories, now from Iceland writers. I have visited Reykjavik with my teacher kolleagues.

I like to go to the theatre and also watch the movies, and when I have seen a good play or a film, I'll try to seek the book it is based on.
I like to travel in Finland, to visit my friends, see new and familiar cities, sometimes to the other countries too.

I like to walk in nature. My sister and my daughter both have a dog so I often pick up the dog for a walk and sometimes I take the dog to sleepover in my home.

I like all kind of postcards, also which describes you or your home town or country,. cards which you like to choose to me.

Let's have an interesting PostCrossing Year :)
