Helsinki-dinki

Hiya girls and boys

Helsinki was so good. Mum and I arrived in MINUS 14 degree weather and located our hotel which was luckily only a 5 minute walk up the road from the bus station. The hotel was gorgeous, our room was massive and the hotel had all the amenities including a restaurant where we spent the first night eating tapas and drinking sangrias and a pool and sauna pronounced ‘sowner’! On the second day we did a bus tour and took some snaps and then hit a massive department store where apparently: ‘If it wasn’t at Stockmann’s you didn’t need it anyway.’ I was pleasantly surprised to find that they all speak English so there was no need for any dodgy attempts at Finnish and the other thing I noticed was the hot factor in Helsinki. The men are divine, all blonde hair and deep blue eyes. Mmm mmm…I am planning to go to either Amsterdam (am curious about the cafe’s…) or Prague (cheap wine…) next.

I will be looking for a roommate around the 25th of March as Claire is moving out around this time and leaving London shortly after. If anyone is in a rut and thinks a change of scene would be perfect – let me know! London has it all and more and with summer coming you’ll be sure to have a ball (what a sales pitch)! I’ll miss Claire and wish she was staying a bit longer but everyone has got to give London however long they feel for themselves. London can’t get rid of me…I feel like I’ve made a home for myself and I’m not giving it up just yet. London is the best boyfriend I’ve ever had! We are inseparable…
