MY FIRST VISIT TO FINLAND


September 07-2007- my first step in Finland was making me free and I can feel free and completely new smell of air from my country. My first season of autumn . My first experience with Nordic Autumn. I had never experienced such long hours of brightness ever before. Initially it was pretty exciting for me .I can see the sun up to 8 pm which makes me more amazed about this place.


Helsinki is AMAZING! Such a typical European city.
Brilliant architecture, pretty street , cobble stone streets and pigeons,. It feels so strange and wonderful to finally be living in finland for study.Although it was cold , there were still so many people out and about. I walked around and I took pictures and I went to a pleasant coffee shop to warm up (Helsinki is full of really great coffee shops). I have a few very bad pics of the city..they were taken that first night and it was so cold that it was difficult to get even one good shot. Some day if I remember,


I will take some more good pictures.


From the airport of Vantaa I took a bus and went to Helsinki city centre it was not so busy city as in my country but it is properly managed and I took a train from city centre to Mikkeli and I found there was a 50percent discount in travelling discount for student .i think it is good aspect of Finland for student and my travelling continue to Mikkeli…………
