About

I’m Michele, author of this blog and a freelance writer, editor, and American in Helsinki. The beginnings of this blog lie in an eco-cottage in rural Finland (you can read about it here or by browsing the archives), which really is called nut--pähkinä in Finnish. Now, I'm back in the city, scribbling, making, cooking, trying to live simply, and anticipating the next great adventure: parenthood. Welcome!
