A few weeks ago we came the conclusion that its a little difficult to get into Finnish homes. It is nothing personal, it is just not common in the culture to invite people over the first time you meet them. This posed a problem because our original idea was to collect photos of nostalgic objects from both Finns and non-Finns alike. We modified our approach and came up with a much better idea. Rather than take photos, we would collect drawings. We plan on mounting the drawings, along with other material into this boat that was recently donated to us. We have a lot of work ahead of us to prepare the boat because we want to preserve the outside just as it is. Look forward to the 12th of June when we set the boat out into the Syvärauma bay.
