ah the squirrels in seurasaari. you’re lucky the ones you followed didn’t attack you. one time when i was visiting with a friend, a squirrel jumped on me and started climbing up my leg. after i shook him off, he proceeded to follow us for quite some way.
also, i have to agree with your comment about the finnish coffee.

My American husband cracks up about the megapussi every time we go visit. I bake a lot and he loves rye bread and there is definitely a lot of different types. We ate so much ice cream this summer that we’re still paying for it. There’s a lot of foods I miss but I’ve been finding more and more in the US.
Loved your pictures, made me almost a bit homesick.

Hi Maria-Thankyou so much! Finland is such a beautiful country and yet so unkown to so many. Glad that it brought back some good memories

I love your site and your photos. I especially liked this post about my home country (I have been in the U.S. for 30+ years). I just got back from a trip to Finland and the photos and your descriptions brought back some good memories – especially of the food kind!

I just stumbled across this post (well, your series on Finland). I was in Finland July last year, too (Helsinki and Turku)! My partner is also half Finnish. Too funny. Oh, and I had to get a photo of the megapussi as well.

[...] home we unpack the Herrings and the Daim chocolate. Did I mention that I am Daim bar mad? Yes the crunchy crispy toffee sends me into raptures, indeed I have been known to buy and eat [...]

Thank you so much for this – I’m heading to Helsinki for a weekend and was wondering what I should look out for – to eat, of course!
