After
waking up at a couchsurfing spot hosted by four individuals from Finland,
Sudan, Canada, and Spain respectively, I sprinted to the bus station to try and
figure out how their bus system worked.
Before I
knew it, I was on a bus for nine hours once again. I missed my stop on purpose
and ended up in Helsinki, the country's capital.
Besides
not being able to speak a drop of Finnish, Helsinki reminded me almost exactly
of a colder and darker London. Old beautiful buildings, lovely cafes, the
unfortunate issue of homeless beggars, and so many things to do in a five-mile
radius. I had to catch a train back to the Airport, so I didn't stay long.
However, the beautiful introverted people of Finland made a lasting impression
on me that may have me coming back one day.
