Kaikki tämä kama…
ALL THIS STUFF…
”As a zoo guide I have to keep a lot of things with me every day.” //
Maps (there’s always someone who doesn’t have one), a microphone and a speaker, radiophone, first aid stuff, work phone, ice cream coupons, my own phone, zoo’s pins, a water bottle, a pen, Swiss Army Knife, canvas bag, snacks, key card, staff card, three sets of keys. //
”Luckily they gave me this extra pocket…”
Tiikerikirja
TIGER BOOK
Uuden päiväkirjani tunnuskuva.
The logo of my new diary.
(The stripes form words that mean ”Tiger book” in Finnish.)
Rullattava ennen käyttöä
ROLL BEFORE USE
”Kati, why does it say ’crushable’ in your hat?” //
”Because you can for example roll it and it doesn’t mind.” //
”And don’t you dare to crush it!”

Eurooppaan! Osa 12: Ei taas!
TO EUROPE! PART 12: NOT AGAIN!
”Shall we go for a little hike on the mountains today?” ”Yeah, let’s go, dad!” //
”Yeah, let’s not!”
”How am I going to get to the airport?” ”I’ll take you, of course. How else?” //

TO EUROPE! PART 11: FAMILIAR FEELINGS
Location: Graz, Austria. I met my little brother after quite some time. Yes, I have a little brother too. //
”…when people ask, ’where in Austria are you from?’…” //
”…and I say that I’m actually from Ireland. And that I spend quite a lot of my childhood in France.” //
”And those people look at me like a million dollar bill. Like this.” //
”It probably doesn’t help if you tell them that you have Finnish siblings.” //
”Not a bit. Those who had followed thus far always get lost at that point.” //
”I should just write the whole thing down and give printed copies to all the new people I meet!” ”Great idea!” //
”But trust me, bro, I know how you feel.”

TO EUROPE! PART 10: A FAMILY DAY
Location: Bielefeld, Germany. ”It’s my father’s birthday, and he’d like to celebrate by spending a day in the zoo with the family.” //

”These people will come: Goldfish… my father and mother… my big sister… her husband… and their two children.” //
On the way to Münster. //
”Coffee?” ”More juice?” ”Yes please.” ”Could I have a spoon, please?” ”Strawberries?” ”This is the most chaotic and the most fun breakfast I’ve ever had.” //
”I’ve been accepted into the family.”
”He hee!” ”Don’t run away from me, my friend’s sister’s toddler!” //
”Oooh! They have a secretary bird!” //
”Did you know that octopuses have three hearts?” ”They do?” //
”Bye bye, Whale and Goldfish!”
