Moving to the hall of the next apartment. An interesting place to store cleaning equipment here. A bag of a shoe store. The company ceased to exist next year, although this bag is from earlier than the mid-1990’s. That’s when there was a big telephone number change in Finland. Another kitchen. Now this is oneContinue reading “Over The Hills And Far Away Part III”

Over The Hills And Far Away Part II
An old letterbox. And at the sight of this I immediately knew what I would find. Apartments for the postal workers, of course. They even featured toilets, which was luxurious in the early 1950’s this far away. A very old hat of the nationwide co-operative bank. Yes, Finns love co-operatives. Why fit apartments with suchContinue reading “Over The Hills And Far Away Part II”
Over The Hills And Far Away Part I
Although I prefer to explore alone, I am an active member of the Finnish urban exploration social media community. I mainly share my work, but am always on the lookout of new locations. Most of the photos are from ordinary one family houses, which weren’t too interesting. Most of the bigger locations I had alreadyContinue reading “Over The Hills And Far Away Part I”
Dull, White Brick Walls Part II
And so I am inside. This is probably the kitchen of the lunch restaurant. A small office room here. Some really strong switches to the kitchen appliances. Another view of the kitchen. And this has probably been the restaurant. And this probably the pantry. And a dressing room. And me wearing the same shorts asContinue reading “Dull, White Brick Walls Part II”

My intention was always to get a degree in journalism as quickly as possible and then return to my home town to work in the local newspaper. I studied so hard,Continue reading “Dull, White Brick Walls Part I”
Unboxing A Factory Part I
Dusk was already falling, when I reached an already familiar location. The last time I visited, I didn’t know, what it was, and didn’t find a way in. This time I was at least a bit wiser. This building is a former box factory headquarters. The company moved here from another city in the 1930’sContinue reading “Unboxing A Factory Part I”
Opening Another Season Part I
Around a day has passed in real life since my last post, but in this blog it has been a long day. After the walk around the one family homes, around five cold and dark months had passed before we arrive to my next adventure in the world of urbex. There were a lot ofContinue reading “Opening Another Season Part I”
An Unwanted Monument
I finished school and decided to reward myself with a holiday. Lithuania was cheap, unexplored territory and I had some friends there, so I booked tickets without any bigger plans. I contacted my friends, who lived in Kaunas, and agreed to meet them on the second day of my holiday. I wrote to social mediaContinue reading “An Unwanted Monument”
