The People Of Helsinki
When travelling to other cities and walking around it is a fascinating experience to merely observe the denizens of that city. They do vary city to city. Factors such as age, smoking, fashion and quirkiness all define a city as being different from another. Helsinki is full of polite and very different people certainly from the UK and interestingly other Scandinavian and Baltic capitals. In short a group of people fascinating to observe. Here are a few examples of the people of Helsinki.
A typical Helsinki couple. Element of distance between them but managing to look cool.
Cigarette and I Phone. A new Oasis song maybe?
Smoking was maybe more common than in other Baltic and Scandinavian countries
A very european image. Attention to the phone but not to where she is walking
Helsinki Fashion
A hard worker
Tourists on the edge
Tourists in their tourist uniforms. Maybe sometone told them Helsinki was freezing?
Far more cyclists than London
On Guard
A hard working man
Finnish fashion may differ from other countries? Again attention to that phone .
The obligatory young persons uniform. Cigarette, headphones and phone. Just dont let the world in
I really have no comment here. What did he ask for at the hairdressers?
A very serious business this guarding

Miserable bunch! Maybe they looked in the mirror and wondered what an earth they were wearing. Hmmmm. Let’s hope they cheer up in time for the Euro Vision.
