Hello Ilkku and welcome to get aquainted with a certain place. These photos are from a town that was founded by ancients called the Ligurians. Their origins have since fallen to the darkness...

For the Romans took the area to their govern shortly after the First Punic War. Even before that they were ruled by the great Greek colony of Massilia, I'd guess...

...Massilia, which presently is called Marseille, the city after which the French national anthem is named. So namely, these are from the Italian Riviera, and to be exact, from a family friend's place. It is warm in Riviera even during the winter months.

As you scroll down these photos, it is finally time to tell you, what it was all about, with this hacking prank? And I'll answer, with a quote. Here: 'You get to know a person during a journey.'

When I heard that, I recalled something, a nice journey with my sister, as I've told you. On the grounds of that, I'll agree. For, during a journey, life is - different. When the environment changes to something - something completely new -, it is easier to feel that life is not about what one has been and seen before.

But it is about what there is by now, and could be - with the people that are around you, now, with a person, that might just be the loved one, that has been previously unknown. It is funny to think about it. So, dear Ilkku, I'd like to get to be with you, to get know you, and then again, let you know whatever good or less good runs in my head and heart...

...for, if you, and the future would let me for it - if you, and our Heavenly Father will let me for it - I'd so like to give those to you.
Of course we don't know what will happen, yet. And I am in no hurry to rush for that - to rush for that, in the sense of 'securing' anything. I've got your sweet will and love, as you've got mine, it will be enough, even if we were in our present places, and kept meeting in every other week. But - and here it is! - I want to work for it. To get know you, and let you know me. So I'd ask you, my dear Ilkku, would you go for a journey with me?
