First time back on s-b since the move. My PC arrived a few days ago, and I had to get a converter to handle the higher voltage (230v).

We live close to a lake, but unless you consider perch and the occasional pike to be exotic......

We don't have a car. Yearly pass for the bus is about $350, good 24/7/365. That's less than a monthly T commuter rail ticket, I think. We live in Finland's third largest city, Tampere. The bus takes us everywhere we want to go, including the airport. To visit relatives in the hinterland, rental cars are cheap (but gas isn't).

So far, nothing but great experiences with the health care system. I just got a bill for my last doctor's visit---17 Euros.
