Nuggets: Not children but girl gang

Thursday after school my friends took me out to explore Helsinki. Our goal is to see everywhere in the city by the time I leave. They are the best. I couldn't ask for a better group of girl friends.

practicing the Finnish smile as I wait for the train. Also the scarfs are not just a fashion statement, it is really that cold. 


A door nob store


Found a record store

a leather bike accessory store

vintage comic book store

boxes of random pieces of art store

Underground thrift store

costume store (they don't even have Halloween so I am slightly confused)



American Preschool

On the search for cheap coffee and dinner



they are pure kindness


I am laughing so hard writing this post because to be honest I am surprised I found such a good group to hang out with. They took me in and now I sit with them at lunch. This seems like something small and silly but I have been thinking a lot lately about people. And no matter where you are at, you want to have a place. Yes you have one, but when you find a genuine place which wants you as much as you want it. That is pure luck. These girls are the best. And when I say that, it comes from the bottom of my heart.  We talk about everything I would with my girls back home.

Fact: Humans are the same no matter where you are.
