Flow Festival 2016

It might be January but most festivals are currently releasing their set lists and getting us all excited about the summer to come. So let me tell you guys a little bit about one of my favourite festivals.

The Old Capital, Finland


Two hundreds years ago Helsinki became the official capital of Finland after Emperor Alexander I wanted the capital to be closer to Russia. However, under Sweden's rule, the capital was Turku. Having never visited, it was time to make a little trip to see Finland's oldest city.

The Lake House, Finland


The most authentic and traditional experience you could have in Finland is spending the summer in your "mökki", or lake house.

A Day in Kotka, Finland


Kotka is a city that I do not know very well, I have been there a couple of times as a child but honestly do not remember much.

All Aboard Part 2, Finland


If you know me then you are quite aware that one of my favourite things in life is food. And when the sun is out I will never refuse a picnic. If you can add an island into the mix then I will be ecstatic.

When the weather is good, you just can’t beat an escape to the sea side.

Helsinki's Best Salad Bar, Finland


Helsinki is filled with restaurants, cafes and bars, yet somehow I always end up at my favorite salad bar.

Strawberry Fields, Finland



When I think of Finland in the summer I imagine green forests, peaceful lakes, flower fields and light summer rain, but mostly I think of strawberries.

The Old Glass Factory, Finland



The first days in Finland are always hectic.
