Joensuu - Helsinki - Joensuu
Jostain kumman syystä kirjoittelen kuulumisista enimmäkseen palattuani Helsingistä Joensuuhun, mistähän johtuisi... Tässä siis Helsingin reissun pikakelausta: Lauantai ja sunnuntai kuluivat Maailma kylässä -festarilla Kaisaniemessä, ja siellä tietysti tuli nähtyä myös suhteellisen paljon tuttuja. Tämän viestin lopussa on linkkejä kuviin. Myös tuolla festarin sivuilla on joitain kuvia, ja Tuijakin oli taas kuvannut varsin ahkerasti. Musiikillisesti festari ei ollut kovin kiinnostava tällä kertaa, senegalilainen Bogostyle oli suorastaan pettymys. Tai eipä niissäkään mitään vikaa ollut, mutta vastaavia räppibändejä on maailmassa ihan riittämiin. Ilmankos en ollut bändistä kuullut aiemmin. Mutta olihan siellä ihan hienojakin esityksiä, ei sen puoleen, hyvältä kuulostivat ainakin Kimmo Pohjonen ja espanjalainen Cheb Balowski. No, tärkeintä kai oli muutenkin tapahtuman sosiaalinen ulottuvuus - ja ruoka (intialaista ja falafelia). Lisäksi alkoi tuntua edes vähän kesäiseltä, koska onnistuin polttamaan naamani ja käsivarteni lauantaina. Sunnuntaina sitten saikin taas palella. Maanantai ja tiistai jatkuivat sosiaalisissa merkeissä, välillä tuli melkein kiire juostessa tapaamisesta toiseen. Mutta jossain välissä onnistuin kuitenkin ostamaan itselleni sängyn ja hakemaan uuden asunnon avaimet ensiseltä omistajalta. Keskiviikkona pääsin sitten mittailemaan asuntoa. Sisustussuunnitelma alkaakin olla jo valmis... mutta vielä kolme viikkoa muuttoon.
And the same (or something similar) in English, just in case, I have no idea who reads these things, except for two people who have told me they do. So, I just came back from Helsinki, where my life seems to be located already, although I will still be here in Joensuu for the next three weeks. I spent saturday and sunday at the World Village Festival and met quite a lot of friends there (as I expected and hoped I would). Below are the links to my photos. There are some photos also on the festival website, and Tuija has taken quite a few as well. Musically the festival wasn't that interesting this time, the Senegalese band Bogostyle was actually a disappointment. They were ok really, but there must be thousands of similar rap bands in the world. No wonder that I had never heard from them before. There were some nice performances also, at least Kimmo Pohjonen and the Spanish band Cheb Balowski sounded good. Anyway, the most important thing for me was the social part of the whole event - and the food (Indian & falafel). And it started to feel like summer after getting my face and arms burned in the sun on saturday. Well, on sunday it was freezing again. On monday and tuesday I met more friends and bought a new bed for the new appartment in Helsinki. And got the keys from the previous owner, so that on wednesday I got to go and admire my new home. I'm looking forward to moving.
Links to photos of friends at the festival: (Saturday) Sanni & Merja & Reetta, almost-relative Leena with her dog, (Sunday) Sanni with her little daughter, Mika & Hanna-Mari, Lissu & Aleksi and my sister Ilona with others watching Maryam Mursal. You can see me on Merja's photos: [1] [2] [3] [4].
