I must have turned into a proper hillbilly. I tend to turn into a gawking, gasping, awe-struck TOURIST every time I arrive in a big city ( not necessarily even properly big like New York, but biggish like Dublin or Helsinki ).
Helsinki has everything. For example:
* Starbucks
* tourists ( not just me, a whole lot of English and Russian is heard in the streets )
* pretty houses ( all the below are residential / business buildings, no actual castles )
* ugly houses
* snowfalls from sunny skies
* people wearing colourful clothes
* a prison turned into a trendy hotel
* thousands of GORGEOUS little wine bars, pubs and bistros where you could just settle down at one of the rustic, candle-lit, wooden tables and drink beer and feast on delicacies and laugh with friends for the rest of your life
* a smell of roasting coffee beans
* pretty doors
* pretty cathedrals
* golden domes
* and some beautiful views
