It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

There's freshly fallen snow and the stores are overflowing with Christmas decorations...too bad it's only November 7th!

Last night it snowed. Now this isn't the first time it has snowed here, but it is the first time the ground has been completely covered. I went on a walk with my roommate last night to try and get some pictures and to take a chance to enjoy the scenery before it gets too cold.

Snow!

A house we saw on the walk. It looked so pretty with the lights, I had to take a picture. I was then told by my roommate that it looked like a very American house... I will have to try and get some pictures of Finnish style houses. I certainly didn't come here to only see beauty in American styles!

A picture from my window this morning.

Well as I'm sure you can see, there's nothing too exciting to report this week. But stayed tuned. In the upcoming weeks there will be trips with stops in Estonia, Sweden and Lapland (in Northern Finland)!
