The far end of the top floor corridor. One of the larger rooms with a vintage 1990’s couch. Just the traditional shit on the blackboard. And a reminder to use birth control. There was still the attic to explore. I always thought that the wooden tv sets were really made of metal and just paintedContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part VIII”

The School Of Many Uses Part VII
I next stumbled upon a small storage room. This was also, where the schools PA-system was located. Turns out, that they were very organized here. The closet to the left contains grid notebooks, big notebooks and small notebooks, the one to the right contains miscellaneous notebooks. This closet contained orienteering equipment. I mean really? AndContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part VII”
The School Of Many Uses Part VI
For some reason I decided to take my way back the first floor corridor to the main stairway seen in the far right end of the picture. The reason was probably, that I realized that I had skipped the handcraft class annex with the green curtains. Now these old sewing tables with old Singers, whichContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part VI”

And so it looks like I found the home economics class. Is that small thing over there really a fridge? Recipe books. This looks too familiar from my school years. Our class was divided into kitchen groups and we would cook stuff together for a full school year. A slide showing different kinds of sieves.Continue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part V”
The School Of Many Uses Part IV
The first thing that greeted me upstairs was another poor, thrashed harmonium. Considering that I had already found two behind the gym, I found the number of these quite large for such a small school. First floor corridor. The fire services have probably used the school as their practise ground, as the doors have beenContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part IV”
The School Of Many Uses Part III
The logical next step would be taking the stairs to the next floor, but I decided to check the small hallway to the right first. What I found were the stairs to the basement, which once again was a no go for me. But there was something else. The stairs to the basement are toContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part III”
The School Of Many Uses Part II
And so I make my way back to the main lobby. The text on the wall says extra equipment. Apparently the extra equipment has been removed. There was only one way to go on the ground floor. It was this dark corridor with lots of bins. At the end of the corridor was the woodworkingContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part II”
Back To Basics
And so my summer holidays were over. I left my former home town and came back home to the Capital Region and resumed my daily habit of going to the office. As September came, my weekly dance lessions started, too. The weather was still beautiful and warm, and I had some strange surge of energyContinue reading “Back To Basics”
My Most Failed Urbexperience
Living in the capital region meant, that I was now able to do a daytrip to almost any of the urbex locations I had read about on other explorers’ sites. And there was one location, which had been intriguing me for quite some time. Laitmanintie was a small road in Western Espoo, where several oneContinue reading “My Most Failed Urbexperience”
Exploring New Territories
What is better than autumn leaves? Autumn leaves in mid-October. And what’s more leaves of a maple. I was used to walking through huge piles of them in my childhood home town, but up north where I spent the past 10 years, were very few maples. This is my colleague taking a shortcut in aContinue reading “Exploring New Territories”
