Hello fellow POV'ers!

I haven't been tracing for a while nor even reading the news. But I'm 
back and while it's still financially unrealistic, I'm having good time 
planning a new house. A one with really thick massive wooden walls built 
with ancient tradition, which looks good, is very healthy to live in and 
has especially good acoustic parameters. In Finnish it's called 
"hirsitalo", I think the English word would be house by logs (it's built 
by piling logs in certain way). For now I've been keeping the walls 
pretty low to get on with fitting/thinking the floors, smaller walls 
etc, but they'll rise in time, when I get further.

bedrooms to bathroom, and having the living room in between.
I presume top row second room from left is the sauna? ;)

Perhaps "log cabin" is what you mean here. Which, incidentally, conjures all 
the wrong mental images in Americans, at least. A "log cabin" is generally 
assumed here to be a very primitive and rural structure probably lacking 
electricity and indoor plumbing, for example.

Your house already looks much better. :-)
