The Beginning


6.11.2014
Sorry for the late start but the beginning of our trip was hectic and we really didn't have time to do this before, and we are sorry for the low quality of  the sound in the video, it's shot with a sports cam (our video cam was delayed because of the finnish customs), we'll do better next time.
Thank you and here goes:



"Hi my name is Milla (21y/o), this is Lax (8y/o), this is Tuukka (30y/o), and we are going to Thailand.
I was adopted from there in 1997 and now I have finnish parents. I have never been there before.

I was found when I was one month old, in front of a guard house of Washirawut military base, in Nakhon Si Thammarat. Thai officals tried to find my parents for a year (whit no results) in newspapers and TV, which is normal in Thailand.
After that I was released to thai social workers, who gave me full medical exam. In the excams they found out that not only I had both ears infected, I was also HIV positive, so I was transferred to Chiang Mai where is Thailands only children's home for HIV positive children.
During the next year they took four control test for HIV and during that time it had disappeared, but this leaves us with the conclusion that my mother was also HIV positive.

So this is the reason why we are going to Thailand, we have a meeting in the Viengping Children's Home, Chiang Mai. We are  meeting our friend Make in Bangkok, who will join us on our trip.

We wanted to start this blog so you can share these feelings and all the new things with us, thank you."
