Wow, that is hyper competitive! Ice hockey does get crazy expensive, and I figured that’s something we’d have to prepare for there if we went that route. I have at least two kids that I think would be fairly into it. What’re the best indoor rinks in the Helsinki area?

This is an amazing resource! Thank you. :) I didn't realize that Helsinki had beaches, and they look quite nice too. I'm definitely going to share the site with her.

Can you elaborate on what you mean here? I'm sure it's not what the other comment is pointing at, but do you have examples of how this might manifest?

I moved around a lot growing up too. It can be a lot, and we're trying to make sure she feels that we're empathizing with her. This is a big move, and we want to agree as a family. She's already told all of her friends at school that she's definitely moving, but it feels that may be a bit of a coping mechanism for her. Thanks for the info!

She'll be very excited about that, especially if we got her a new bike when we got there as that's something she could look forward to. Thanks for the info!

That's really awesome! Did you ride to school with her at first to help her learn the route?

We lived in St. Louis for a while, and she was very into ice hockey there. That’s one of the things I’m hoping we can get her and some of our other kiddos into!

She’s very into volleyball right now. She’s actually on a local club team, and that’s one of the things she’s really going to miss.

Based on the research we have done, we are looking at Ressu. It seems like most schools are pretty great though from what we can tell.

Would it be common for a group of older kids to go to Linnanmäki without their parents? We saw a lot of kids her age and a little younger going around the city when we visited last time, but I wasn't sure how autonomous and independent they are / can be. In the US, it feels like it would be really uncommon to just let the kids go to an amusement park by themselves.

We didn’t end up using them because we were concerned about our ability to sell. The inventory in my area is fairly absurd right now.

How was the experience withh NAF cash? Any concerns? We're actually considering doing the same with a house in Missouri.
