Helsinki travel articles

Helsinki, 6 degrees

Design and architecture coursing through veins.

Here a post for all of you dreaming about coming to Helsinki, here's two recent travel articles about my amazing city!

In Swedish, you can read Expressen's article.

In English, please look into the article written by the Daily Telegraph where Norman Miller explains how we Helsinkians have design and architecture coursing through our veins.


Did you learn something new?

What's your opinion?

  1. Would love to visit. Is it a very expensive city to live in?

  2. Thank you Sam for your comment. I think Helsinki has the same price level as the other Nordic countries, so the expensiveness depends on where one comes from. The prices are in direct balance with the salaries. A cup of regular Finnish coffee is about 1€, but Italian coffee is between 2,50-5€ since it's considered a special kind of coffee. I would say it's the same with many things, the Finnish versions are reasonable priced whereas imported goods are always more expensive here. Sometimes though local, organic or small producer food is more expensive than imported...it's not easy to give you an answer without specific examples, hehe...

  4. It's so cool to see how some cultures really embody certain artistic, technological, or other strains as a society. I've heard that the design in Helsinki is amazing, wish I could come see it!
