Where do you come from?

This thread is pretty straightforward, where do you come from/where are you currently living. The poll shows only the continent, so tell more about your country/city/town/village below and maybe put a nice photo of your favorite place near home.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Downtown Turku, at the Aura river. The building in the background is the Pharmacy Museum.

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

My town is just about visible in the top middle.
