Summer and the City

Nothing beats a warm summer day in the city. Let it be Helsinki or London or New York, I just love walking around and stopping by in a cafe to have an ice-latte or check out those little stores that you always pass by but never have time to visit... Yesterday I spent a fabulous day in the city with my mom. We walked down Korkeavuorenkatu, visited few stores, did some shopping and ended up having lunch at the-never-failing Bar No 9 on Uudenmaankatu. A very relaxed and enjoyable day indeed! 


Here's my list of Top 5 things to do or places to visit during the summer: 


1. Have a romantic picnic in the morning in Tähtitorninmäki. 
2. Play Mölkky in a park. 
3. Enjoy a glass of champagne at Mattolaituri in Kaivopuisto. 
4. Visit Gallerie Forsblom on Lönnrotinkatu. 
5. Eat oh-so-delicious mango-melon ice-cream, lots of it! 


Of course there are tons of other things to do. I'd love for you to tell me what are your favorite ways to spend a day! :)

  1. Mölkky on mulle ihan tuntematon laji! Siihenhän vois joskus ottaa tuntumaa vaikka omalla pihalla.:)

    Mun ykkösjuttuihin kesäisin kuuluvat...

    - myöhäinen iltapala omalla terassilla
    - sukulaisten ja ystävien tapaaminen ulkona; pihoilla ja puistoissa
    - vierailu hellyttävän ihanassa Naantalissa ja Muumimaailmassa
    - rauhallinen shoppailuhetki siskon kera maustettuna aterioinnilla ja kahvittelulla:)
