you know that I am an eager collector of
old finnish books. now we are spending a few days in
Oulu at
Jacopo's grandma and grandpa's place and I am going through all their books: they have
thousands of old interesting books about nature and history - which I just can't get enough of. I had to scan a few images from a beautiful book called
Suvisaaren Kirja.

♥ old books are extremely precious: I love the way they feel and smell!
I am grateful to be able to look through such an
amazing collection of books - when I come to
Oulu. plus dear
Kyllikki has gifted me with an
old children's book about the forest and
one about cats!
