Greetings from the other side.
Went to the Magistrate's office today and registered myself as a resident here in Finland, and got my finnish social security number at the same time. Next up is getting a finnish bank account for my salary, and getting what is known as a "sickness insurance card", which will allow me to get free healthcare over here.
We unfortunatelly were unable to go talk to them about our internet, so it will have to wait until next week.
After all the rain and thunder in the past few days it was really nice to get some sunshine and blue skies today. :) Warm weather really perks you up after a few days of bad weather! Me and my gf attempted our first bbq here. My "father-in-law" had kindly prepared the grill for us. Unfortunatelly it didn't quite turn out the way we thought it would... Turns out there was too little charcoal in the grill, so we didn't quite get the heat we wanted, or needed. This meant the food didn't quite turn out the way we had hoped. We bravely tried to eat it, but pretty soon decided it would be better to just go back inside the house and warm it up in the frying pan instead. Such a shame. We had looked forward to it all week. But these things happen, and all you can do is laugh about it. :)
My right knee is feeling a bit stiff and swolen today, without showing any outward signs of swelling mind you. Hopefully it is just a temporary thing.
Have also had some thoughts about the house and the yard for the future, which I have talked about with my gf. We are both very excited for the future! :)
That's about it for this time.
See you all on the other side!
