It is quite evident! If I didn't know that Krisztina is Hungarian, I would have guessed for her Russian, or anyway Slavian. Smile

Well, I almost missed this thread... But if any of the EU shooters, or our great folks on this side of the pond need a launching point to the PNW, I have a spare room available. Please contact me when you're making your plans, and I'll assist as I can...

This thread has been one of my not many best ideas so far. It has already worked twice, Attila and Krisztina visited here in June and I and Monica visited Budapest in August. Very Happy

I'm glad to join the program, with a small room for a couple in a small town, 40 minutes away from Paris center by train and 15 minutes away from Euro Disney... I have to warn you that my spoken english is very bad so don't expect me to be a pleasant people to speak with and that my two babies still cry all night long Embarassed Laughing

We have 2 small apartments... The one where I live now is quite small but
I have a mattress so it's not a problem... Second bigger apartment is being repaired at the moment.. It's heated and possible to sleep there with a sleeping bag too if not scared of the wood and the tools there Smile

This smaller is 1.8km from the city centre... The one being repaired is in the centrum. 150 meters from railway station.

So if someone wants to come here now winter time you are welcome except january when we are in India Wink

The city is Tampere... 160km from Helsinki.
From europe there is direct flights to Tampere but if coming further then need to fly to Helsinki but there's direct bus from airport coming all the time.

Thanks very much Tanheis!
One day I will visit for sure. Not this year because I have to restore my father's house. But I will.
You are of course welcome here anytime.

I am currently busy 24/7 with caring for a relative who has dementia. I do know that his life is near the end, that must be accepted. However, when he does pass away I will have accomodations available. I own two home, so there would be a complete home available. I already did this with a group from Fred Miranda site, and we had a fine time. The photo opportunities here on the Olympic peninsula are endless. The Olympic National Park is right beside me, and offers rain forest, wild beaches, mountains, and meadows. North Cascades and Mount Rainier is also within two hours of here.

I will let you folks know when I have place available again, and I would look forward to giving a tour of our beautiful part of the world.
