Somewhere in Lapland
On the one of my adventures I found this hidden gem
So beautiful
Standing on the meadow
Surrounded by flowers
I assumed this one was abandoned too
Like so many other old house
Sense this one was almost collapsed
Like too many other old house
The door was loosely locked
Again I was wondering
Where goes the line of trespassing
When it is breaking in
And when it is a friendly visit
The law says it is always trespassing when you go in
No matter if the door is open or closed
And I understand this
There is too much people whom don't know how to respect the old house
They brake windows to get in
Make a mess inside
And take all kind of old things with them from the house
For these kinda things there is a simple term
It's called burklary
There is a simple code for people wanting to visit old places
Take only photographes
Leave only foot prints
Simple as that
Then the other thing is
What is 'abandoned'
Old house or cottage that looks like there has been nobody in decades
Can be still somebody's summer house
It would be wise to find out the history of the place
Before you go in
But like me so often
I come a cross with the places by accident
In this case I try to use common sense
I always also ask from the house if I'm welcome
Usually the house welcomes me and shows me the way in
But sometimes not
Then I respect that and continue my way
When I was younger
I was too thirsty for adventures
And too blind to stop and listen
So I made a way to get in this old house
While inside I got this really bad vibes
The whole house was rejecting me
There was a lot of scary stuff
And stuff that where obviously stolen
And I realized there has been somebody
Somebody I wouldn't want to meet
I left the place and never came back
Afterwords I felt bad
I had broke my code and the common code
I had actually done something that wasn't fun anymore
So you live, you learn
I never posted the pics from that house anywhere
and I never will
So now I was standing on one door again
Asking if I'm welcome
This time I was
The house was in a really bad shape
The basement was totally collapsed
I was stepping super carefully on the floor
Numbers at the house base stonewall tells that the house has been build 1938-50
Note on the bench tells that somebody has been visiting the owner 1983
Latest newspaper was the Hufvudstadsbladet from 1994
From the internet I couldn't find any information about the house
So it remains a mystery house for me
Exploring the main floor is always nice and exiting
But going higher or lower is always a bit scary
Especially if the house can collapse in any minute
Do you rather get burried
Or take a leap of faith with the upstairs floor
This is always a nice mind game to play alone in the spooky old house
This time also there was no ghosts making them selves visible for me
Not even afterwords from the pictures
Which is also kinda spooky when you see something in the pic
That wasn't there when taking the pic
So this seemed very peaceful house
It just stands there in the middle of the flower meadow
With the bright colors little by little fainting from it's walls
I'm not going to reveal the location of this place
So let just say it is somewhere in Lapland
Local people probably know the place already
Sense I definitely wan't the first one visiting there
(Some ladies had typed on the piece of paper that they were here)
But I hope you will enjoy the beautiness of this old house through my pictures
And maybe understand why I sometimes bend the law for the pics and stories
