A Vaasa man found a lost wallet 20 years ago

Vaasa Aatu Muranen Hobbies a lot of walking to maintain your well -being. He makes some kind of exploration trips to his immediate surroundings.

« I like to spin here in my childhood landscape, a bit like a little boy, » he says.

The gaze is often in the terrain and sometimes the eye happens to something interesting.

Recently, he was on his way home along the beach of the local Hietalahdenpuisto Park. The sea water was really low, so he went to explore the rock.

Muranen’s attention was drawn to a poorly glittering object under water. He grabbed it and after a little jerk got it off.

The object was revealed to be a wallet that had grown into some form of sea plant. Inside was an identity card, a debit card, a student card and a travel ticket from 2005. Plastic cards had not been fragile.

They had a woman’s name. However, the woman was not found by googling. So Muranen decided to make an update on the wallet on the Vaasa Puskaradio on Facebook.

”

It was about twenty years since the disappearance.

Only After an hour, he received a message from a man with the same surname as the card owner. The sender was the big brother of the woman who once lost her wallet.

Big brother said his sister was currently living in Sweden, but always visiting Vaasa. The wallet would reach its owner on the next visit.

« The sister had reportedly been quite amazed at finding a purse, » Muranen says.

It was about twenty years since the disappearance.

The man said that his sister first remembered that this was a bag stolen in Amsterdam during his studies.

« That would have been an incredible story of coincidences. But then my sister had reportedly thought for a moment and remembered that she had once had a bag in Vaasa, or at least a purse. »

Muranen estimates that it is probably a more logical explanation.

Three hours after publishing on Facebook, Muranen had already handed over the purse owner to the brother.

He is happy with the outcome.

« It gets some decision.
