Looks like I am in a very dark place. Or actually it doesn’t anymore if I remove the lens protection. Now it looks like a large public building. I entered through that door, which is intact, blocked and locked. It means, that somebody let me in. These schedules from 2015 reveal it all. I amContinue reading “Didn’t Find A Way In So I Invited Myself Part I”

If At First You Don’t Succeed
The following night I returned to the school, which I had visited if the neighbours hadn’t distracted. I did a new walkaround just to see if there would be new openings. There weren’t. I even tried all the doors, but all of them were shut. Nothing. The only option left was the basement window. ButContinue reading “If At First You Don’t Succeed”
Interested But Denied
Earlier that summer I was contacted by a local urbexer on Instagram asking me for a location. We traded. They got what they wanted, I was given a list of previously unknown places around the area. This is a former village school. Its architecture seems to be from the 1950’s and it was closed inContinue reading “Interested But Denied”
Improved My Flexibility Part V
There was a similar lobby downstairs than there was upstairs. The windows had been covered, so it was darker here. The stairs end to a side door. It looks like I climbed the window in vain. The door wasn’t locked. There was a separate stairway to the basement. Again I skipped it. You already knowContinue reading “Improved My Flexibility Part V”
Improved My Flexibility Part IV
So here we go, the first classroom of the school. It has apparently featured a similar foldable blackboard as seen earlier. And it also features a rather large row of old cupboards and sinks. Let’s have a closer look at that. They’ve even renovated the pipes at some point, because they’re made of plastic. AContinue reading “Improved My Flexibility Part IV”
Improved My Flexibility Part III
Entering the upstairs apartment, then. This one had even more stuff left behind by the last inhabitant than the previous one. The kitchen of the second apartment. It was a bit different than the one on the first one, but again definitely from the 1980’s or early 1990’s. A phone book from 2013. Again thisContinue reading “Improved My Flexibility Part III”
Improved My Flexibility Part II
If the first room was the room of a child, this one looks more like a combined living room and the bedroom of a parent. Whoever decorated this apartment has had a thing for strong colours. The room actually included two beds. It also looks like they’ve had a cat. The kitchen was fairly spaciousContinue reading “Improved My Flexibility Part II”
Improved My Flexibility Part I
Well, well, well, isn’t that another familiar looking building? This of course is the small village school located in the middle of the fields. I found the place the previous summer, I even found an open window. But the covid pandemic and my lack of activities had made me so stiff and weak in theContinue reading “Improved My Flexibility Part I”
The Sailor School
The party was over, and so was my first period of summer holidays. I spent the final Sunday roaming around the city where I was for the party. I first tried to locate this beauty, but sadly it had been demolished. So I turned my eyes to the old sailor school seen in the firstContinue reading “The Sailor School”
Was A Mystery, Remains A Mystery
Once again my adventures took me to the tiny village of Haapamäki, which formerly was a very important place with railroad connections to all directions. Once again there were a few more empty lots, once again I was facing this old cutie. This of course is the former elementary school of the village, which hasContinue reading “Was A Mystery, Remains A Mystery”
