The house did have an electric stove too. It wasn’t the largest or most modern model. The wallpaper was very old. I kind of like it, though I wouldnt put that on my own walls. I have no idea what that is. The different colors and wallpapers were really not a good match. It’s somewhatContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part VII”

What A Beautiful Morning Part VI
So it was now 7.20 am and the world was still sleeping. After a breakfast at a petrol station I and my friend arrived to the third location of the day. Behind the bushes is an old farm house from the 1930’s or 1940’s. It’s pretty unremarkable, but the village it is located in isContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part VI”
What A Beautiful Morning Part V
So we are suddenly in a kitchen now? And not a very well looking kitchen. This is the one family house I visited not so long ago, but couldn’t enter because of the neighbours being too close. Well it’s 5.55 am on a Saturday morning, which means that they are probably sleeping now. During myContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part V”
What A Beautiful Morning Part IV
The former main entrance to the building. This must be, where the final two apartments are located. Not the first thing you’d expect to find on the porch of an old villa: the mask of an old Ford Sierra. Oh, and there’s the front bumper. Now hold on a second, that is a seat. AndContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part IV”
What A Beautiful Morning Part III
So, this is the fifth apartment. It had a luxury feature above all the others. The balcony of the house was located here. Someone here has loved fruit lemonade. I googled the brand and it is Lithuanian, which is fairly strange. Unless the last inhabitant was a Lithuanian expat, of course. Directly on the oppositeContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part III”
What A Beautiful Morning Part II
Like I guessed. Behind the door to the left was a small veranda and stairs. One stair was missing, which didn’t seem like a good sign. Also like in the previous apartments, too, somebody has ripped off the plumbing. Climbing the stairs not really knowing what to expect. And there, right at the top ofContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part II”
What A Beautiful Morning Part I
Let me get one thing straight. I am not a morning person. I hate early mornings. Got that? Good. And that is exactly why this May Saturday morning I got out of bed at 4.00 am. To be able to exit my house by 4.30 am. To be able to pick up my friend atContinue reading “What A Beautiful Morning Part I”
A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part IV
A look at the room behind the kitchen, probably a former bedroom, judging by the alarm clock. This room was inaccessible, as there were loads of stuff on the floor. All in all this resembled the previous house quite a lot. Moving on to the living room. After this images start to be a bitContinue reading “A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part IV”
A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part III
And so our day trip to find abandoned houses in the capital region continued. We next went looking for a former village store, but it had been demolished not too long ago, as it was just an empty lot. And our final location of the day was in the Northern suburbs of Espoo. It wasContinue reading “A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part III”
A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part II
We’ve now walked right through the messy labyrinth underneath the house without finding a way up. Perhaps it’s behind that door. Just the sauna, with the last laundry left drying. And finally in the far end of the basement was the breakthrough. The stairs lead straight to the hall, where the floor was covered inContinue reading “A Perfect Date Doesn’t Exi… Part II”
