helsinki: arrived


I have arrived in Helsinki! The trip was a long and gruelling 16 hour trek & the jet-lag has been a struggle. I am still adjusting to being ten hours "in-the-future."I have included some shots, rather uninspired one's unfortunately, I am having difficulty staying focused and interested in things due to the exhaustion and lack of sleep. 

I have loved most everything about Helsinki so far. It's a truly beautiful place, with astounding architecture, and an intoxicating artistic energy. Today was largely spent walking aimlessly, often searching for either coffee or food...of course ;)
