Korpo blog
Finally it is here; the Korpo blog! In this blog you can read articles and posts about life in Korpo. We have chosen to categorise the posts from three perspectives; Life in Korpo, where you can read about what it's like to live on an archipelago island in 2025. Visit Korpo, which focuses on the tourism industry and what visitors can enjoy in Korpo, and Vitality in Korpo, which focuses on the vitality of the island's business and community life.
Much of the content may look familiar to those who read Pro Korpo Bladet, as we will also be publishing articles from the newspaper so that they can reach a wider audience, but we will also be engaging with different Korpo residents, ranging from young to old, part-time residents and business owners, to get as broad a perspective as possible.
Want to get involved in content creation? Contact us and we'll make it happen! :)

December is here and the Christmas season is officially open. Outside it's grey and dark, but the archipelago is always beautiful regardless of the weather. Add some cosy Christmas spirit and you have the perfect reason to spend some December days in Korpo. We can...
10 years with Pro Korpo and 100 months with Korpo Bladet
Because Korpo is full of treasures! Both tangible and intangible. Stories that should be written down while someone still remembers them, so that future generations will understand where they come from and find their roots. It was...
A new chapter in life
I am sitting in the kitchen with my best friend planning how to decorate our apartment. We both have a hard time understanding that in about a month, we will be living together in a new city and going to...
Word of the day: multi-taskers, martall & the Archipelago Sea
Muutin reilu vuosi sitten Korppooseen osittain kokeillakseni, miltä kokonainen vuosi tuntuu saaristossa, osittain sen takia, että tunsin löytäneeni jotain omaa saarelta ja sen ihmisistä. Vaikka tunsin menettäneeni sieluni jo aikoja sitten Saaristomerelle, Korppooseen kotiutuminen on mennyt samanaikaisesti sekä nopeasti, että...
Juuret
Helmikuun toisena päivänä 2022 kello 22:32 olen ladannut läppärilleni netistä vanhan mustavalkoisen valokuvan, jossa poseeraa perhe talon edessä. Kuvatekstissä lukee: “Adolf Öhman with from left his daughter Amanda Mathilda, daughter-in-law Julia Adelina Wilhelmina, wife Amanda Carolina and granddaughter Sylvi Adele Öhman”. Muistan...

One day on an Astrid Menzel film set in Korpo
When the German artist and filmmaker Astrid Menzel visited AARK for the second time with the intention of shooting her next film in Korpo, I reached out to her. I have long been interested in learning about filmmaking, including aspects...
KUF's revue Häcken Full: Theatre at its best
What amazes me most about the KUF theatre group is how they have managed to bring together and showcase such a talented and passionate group of local actors. For an amateur group of theatre artists, we should be amazed at the level...
Do you also want to become a Korpobo?
Is it possible to live in the archipelago all year round? We Korpobans are asked this question a few times a year, and the answer is of course: YES! It is possible to live here all year round. It is a luxury to live in the archipelago! And in ...
