  • Tampere, kaupunki matkalla kohti ympäristöstävällisyyttä
    1 December 2019, by Eva Wissenz

    On totta, että elinolosuhteet Tampereella ovat upeat. Meillä on puhdasta ilmaa, raikasta vettä, ja metsät ovat lähellä. Siitä huolimatta on tehtävä vielä paljon, jotta Tampere olisi kestävän kehityksen kaupunki, jossa hyödynnetään resurssien jakamista, kiertotaloutta, kaupunkipuutarhoja, lähiruokapiirejä sekä keskuksia, joissa jaetaan ekologisia taitoja, kaupunki jossa on tarjolla edullista terveellistä ruokaa, jossa vähennetään jätteiden tuottoa, ja niin edelleen.

    All these cosmetics are imported from France, Sweden, Latvia, Germany... As far as I know, only Frantsila is offering organic cosmetics made in Finland in their Hämeenkyrö’s farms.

  • Sustainable Christmas gifts: please re-use
    13 November 2019, by Eva Wissenz

    One of the best thing in Finland are the second hand shops. Name it Fida, Red Cross or small "kirppis" shops in town. These shops are nice and just like any other. Take your time, explore everything and you will for sure find treasures there for your next Christmas gifts!!
    A few events are also interesting if you’d like to buy brand new items made by local creators. The Finnish Handicrafts 2019 Fair is a massive event, very connected to the Finn’s passion for handicraft!! And that’s indeed (…)
