Contest #644 – Klovharu, Porvoo, Finland

The author of the Moomin books, Tove Jansson, and her partner Tuulikki Pietilä spent summers in the cabin on this tiny island in the Gulf of Finland. Most of Jansson’s works were written either entirely or partly in this cabin.

Tours of the island and cabin are available, but only for a very short window in mid to late July. Only 8 persons at a time can visit the island and the boat only goes over once per day during the touring window of about 7-10 days, depending on weather, bird nesting, etc.
