So this is our first official little video here in Helsinki and we're just about to have
a simple picnic lunch. We got some smoked salmon. Oooh la lah! That looks tasty. We
go ourselves a nice baguette sandwich to enjoy in the park. A lovely pasta salad with feta
cheese and some fizzy drinks to go along. So we're just going to enjoy the view and
savor our dinner. Mmmmmm! The smoked salmon is easily my favorite
part of this little picnic. It's a wonderful cheap meal. We were able to get all of this
food for just roughly 10 Euro. So instead of going out for dining tonight we just decided
to hit up a local grocery store, pick out some things that look good and it's turned
into a fantastic little feast here on the park bench.
Hello bird! Music playing
More music playing Our first impression of Finland. One of the
things we've noticed the most is just how cool the temperature is. I'm loving it. I
can walk outside and I'm not sweating profusely. This city is definitely a lot quieter than
where we come from. We've been living in Thailand for a few months and we're used to tuk-tuk's,
motorbikes, honking, swirving and everything just.....yeah and meanwhile you can hear sirens
and motorbikes in the background. This totally disproves my point...hahaha
Music playing We've also noticed there is a really big biking
and fitness culture here. Everyone seems to be riding around on their bikes, in-line skating
and in this kind of weather who can blame them.
Music playing So this is a bit of a cool supermarket we
found right here. If you are too busy to go get your groceries all you need is your little
smart phone. You can the bar codes for milk, for meatballs, ravioli, whatever, and they
just deliver it to your place just like that. Wow!
Music playing So we just across a bridge with love locks
and that kind of reminded me of our love lock video that we made back in Korea. So it is
eight forty five PM right now but as you can see it is still daylight out and that's because
we are in the land of the midnight sun. So that's just a quick little intro into Helsinki
we're both really tired so we're going to go get caught up some sleep and we'll make
some more videos this week.
