The Journey of Cafe Porotupa started four years ago. The dream was to create a cozy, authentic meeting place with a fireplace and lots of candles! And homemade delicates, of course. Something real in this artificial world 😍
It wasn't easy to rent property in the middle of the village but finally like a miracle, it happened🤩 ✨ The hut was found from the middle of the forest, and once it was a second-home for the reindeerman. That's why the name Porotupa(=Reindeerhut)
I was hosting the Cafe the first year. The world was calling me and I went traveling for more than two years. We knew with Marko from St. Petersburg (Russia) where we both were working before. Marko&Johnny was visiting me on the Christmas time and suddenly Marko came back very soon and started hosting the cafe 🙌😅😘 I was very happy to give it for someone who really understood the idea, which is much more than coffee&cakes. And yes, he (and later Johnny too) was doing amazing work as you all know very well🧡
Even it was hard to get permission rent the property, has it been even harder to keep it🤪😅 The cafe has been very famous all the time but the Council has now decided not keep renting the property anymore. The question is about the equality because now there is so many more who want to have their place to the middle of the village too✌️
This means that doors of the cafe have closed already and the whole building will be moved very soon.. I'm very sorry to tell this for all of you who are coming back and waiting to visit
the place soon😥
But as we know, everything in Life is only temporary. I'm pretty sure that Life is still beautiful even the best coffee place in the world is now history. It will still be living in our memories anyway💕 and the spirit of Porotupa will never, ever die 🎆✨🧡
Thank You so much each and everyone. Thank you🙏🙏🙏 It has been a pleasure😍 Lots of love and happiness💕 Love you all 💛💚🧡❤️
