serene sunday

my oh my how many cheerful people one finds in Helsinki on a sunday afternoon. Tolerance seemed to be the key amongst them and i thoroughly enjoyed the warm feeling that comes with it. All of the irritating little things i've bothered myself with the past couple of days were washed away with the realisation that there actually are people out there who just try to get along. Genuine caring for the wellbeing of others and the effort to educate and build a more tolerant environment radiated all around.

cycling is a great way to get around. if ur interested in promoting a healthy way of moving and want better cycling roads in Helsinki, check out the date for the next kriittinen pyöräretki.

also check out Rodrigo Duende's PauBrasil jewelry. Liked the sunny feeling of those a lot :)

all pictures by me, trying my best...

move around and stay still

now everyone  get ur shoes on and venture to kaisaniemi, helsinki to experience the world! Great food, great people and a beautiful day ahead. More about it later..

a great read

had a really chill day yesterday and wandered into a newly renovated helsinki library on rikhardinkatu. If you love the old, kinda mossy feeling of libraries go take a look. It's a beautiful old building with a touch of hip inside. I had completely forgotten why this was once one of my favorite places to be but it came back instantly. Plus there is a huge selection of travel guides and dictionaries so one can just sit back and explore infinite possibilities of the next destination. There's also an art loan gallery downstairs -affordable deco for the summer to spice up your pad.

traveltoes are itching again.. I love the energy and happiness spring brings but with it comes also the itch to move along. There are too many places to see and be in and the change you see in the people around you really doesn't diminish the feeling. Finns especially go absolutely nuts for the light and warmth... The atmosphere is definitely on the exciting side, you feel the possibility of a wonderful summer lurking around the corner. I've taken a mission to document it in pictures this year so you'll see some great moments (i hope) very soon :)
