I’m Karelian from my mother’s side, lived in Ilomantsi for few years and spent over 20 years traveling there to see my grandmother until her passing in 2020. Not sure if I could move there myself, but seeing photos like these gave me a big sigh of yearning. It’s a place that sticks with you I guess.

Love these.
I’m from Joensuu originally but been living abroad for the past 13 years. These pics make me miss the calmness and serenity.
I don’t miss the cold however 😅
Lovely and calm.
that sky in the 3rd photo is amazing
kudos to both photographer and cosmos
I read „North Karelia“, I start humming the song: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnUVbCnP5Ik](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wnUVbCnP5Ik)
