Hi guys! On my way home from Scotland to Seoul, I had a 19 hour layover in Helsinki. I've always wanted to visit Finland so I thought I'd get a tiny taste of it before I plan a proper trip back someday. I was amazed at how much I could get done in Helsinki!!

@j.lahtinen7525 4 года назад

You did a really good job making the best of the little time you had! The library visits were a nice idea, as Finns tend to appreciate their libraries, and use them a lot. 😊 Also, the salmon soup is well worth trying, glad you got to it, it's quite delicius. If you come to Finland again, I recommend June or August - June (before midsummer) is probably the best time. July in Helsinki (and June after midsummer) is.... quiet. People are on their summer holidays, and tend to be somewhere else than Helsinki. July is great in that pepople have been waiting for the summer, and are happy with the warm weather, and the long days. The cafes and bars have terrases open outside, and the nature is at it's most beautiful.

I tend to plan out my weekends month ahead but then I see a new cool cafe on Insta and suddenly all my planning seems so outdated, like you know “so last season” . I end up in scrapping everything and starting anew, which isn’t very efficient. Impart some planning wisdom on us, mortals, Cari! 🙏🏻😀
