It is so good to be here. Husband flew here a little bit earlier, and we followed him couple of days later. Wonderful to be together!

We started hiking in the mountains immediately. It is a bit cold in Hangzhou, but the sun is shining and is already giving promises of the spring.

I have always said that the mountains are my best and cheapest therapist. It is so calm and beautiful there. You cannot but relax and leave all your unhappy or sad thoughts there for the wind to take them away.

And you have to remember that there is always someone with a heavier load to carry.

I am happy here. China is also my home. I mean Finland is my country but this feels home too.

I wish you a Very Good New Year, take care of yourself!
