Gré & Hilkka, thanks!
Emma, what's "pun"?

A pun is a play on words. Speaking about the old houses of Porvoo, it is funny to write "I WOOD love to live there". Although I guess it was not deliberate.

Emma, thanks for explaining the word to me. I actually hadn't noticed the (unintended?) misspelling in Gré's comment.

Every day I learne new stuff. My English is not perfect, I know. Sometimes I just write as I speak. Don't look in the dictionary and then this will happen. Wood is wood from the trees, I had to write "would". Thanks to Emma and now I know what pun means. But the wooden houses are beautiful and so is the picture.

That looks like the town where they filmed the Michael Caine movie, BILLION DOLLAR BRAIN.
