Don't mind contact at all, so long as it's not dull rants about how offensive my username is :)

I'm a recent immigrant, who moved from the UK. On the whole I love living here. Sure the winters are cold, dark, and bleak. But I oddly don't mind that at all. I do find the snow fun for a few days but then I slowly come to realize I hate it. Mostly because it is deep and fluffy for about five minutes, then becomes a hellish sheet of sheer ice which is deeply unpleasant to walk upon for the next two weeks. So the two common observations "The language is hard" and "The winters will kill you" are about 90% true. I've learned enough Finnish to talk to small children, but adults exhaust me. I'm getting there though.

As for nightwish, I'm a big fan too. Master, A dentist. Steven Seagal ;)

Travelling is hard because I'm new to the place. I know Helsinki, I know little else. The best I'd say is there is no shortage of museums, prettiness, and so on. But no doubt googling "Helsinki Tourist Ideas" would get you the kind of results which I could suggest. I suspect I'm less helpful in that regard ..

PS: This was a public comment, as was yours. If you want to message me you're welcome though, as are others who are local and want to be a good victim :)
