A very good morning to you all! It's that time again to check out the days forecast 👍 for Helsinki
Sunrise 0857
Sunset 1607
7 hours & 10 minutes of daylight. A little bit chillier today (-5 and feels like -10), a good day to perhaps promenade between museums 🤭

Good morning Helsinki! The weather today is overcast and a chance of ❄️ snow.
Sunrise in the capital is 0859 and sunset will be 1605. A glorious 6 hours and 6 minutes of daylight 😍
How will you spend the day?! 🤔

What is your first stop in a new city? For me, it's always the food tour! If there is no tour available, then food halls and supermarkets are an excellent backup plan. @nationalgeographic.bsky.social have down the hard work and tracked down some not to be missed market halls 👏

Food for thought! The hotel breakfast is a hot topic today. Should it be included in the room rate or should breakfast become an extra item 🤔?

🚨Public Service Announcement🚨
Helsinki is a big city (well, you know what I mean), and like all big cities, you need to be aware of your surroundings.
Pickpockets especially are on the move in and around the main tourist spots. They are organised and target groups. 1/2

It used to be that Mondays in Helsinki meant no museums. Fortunately #AmosRex put that habit out to pasture by being the only museum open on Mondays (and yes, they close on Tuesday).
A favourite place, as much for the structure itself as the exhibitions.
Always provoking both thoughts and senses 🥰
The Amos Rex Museum in Helsinki is open on Mondays - currently showing there is the first major solo exhibition of Palestinian-Danish video and installation artist Larissa Sansour in Finland:

A regular on my breakfast table 😋 This is what a naked rice pie looks like 🤭

✅️ Enjoy warm (popping them in the toaster works well)
✅️ top with 🥚🧈 (boiled eggs & butter mashed together 👍)
✅️ any savoury topping works well
✅️ not only breakfast, anytime works 😋
