Åland Pride 2025! ️‍️‍⚧️

This week is pride week on Åland Islands and today we had a parade through the town, from the Western Harbour to the Marketplace, with about 500 participants. It's a really nice gathering, warm and cozy, surely very different from big cities (I've never participated pride parade anywhere else). Tomorrow we will have a rainbow mass in the church.

I just wish that everyone, everywhere, would have the possibility to be who they are, love who they want, dress as they like, and walk on the streets of their hometown waving rainbow flags, carefree and safe.
