Helsinki

It’s already time to say goodbye to our first destination, Helsinki. Simone and I managed to see quite a lot of the city, despite the cold weather. Our apartment was very central and we were able to reach most sights on foot. We awarded ourselves with frequent coffee breaks inbetween the sights.

One of our favourite spots turned out to be the spa Löyly. It offers saunas and the possibility to jump into the Golf of Finnland to cool off. We loved the place so much, we ended up coming here on our last day again. Jumping into the freezing water turned out to be a fun challenge. We enjoyed it so much that we did it twice.

Feeling rejuvenated, we are waiting for our flight for the next destination. Somewhere warmer.

Tips for future visits:
* The fastest and cheapest way to get to Helsinki city from the airport is the train.
* The spa which we tested out and approve is Löyly
* Robert’s Coffee House & Pauling are some cafésRead more
