In last two months I had chance to go explore a bit around Finland and abroad. So I have been in Stockholm and Oslo. 
Trip to Stockholm was great. It was organized by Club international TAMK. First we went to Helsinki, where we had some time (not a lot) to go around, before our ship set sails for Stockholm. I went a bit around. To some Orthodox church nearby and to the market located in the harbor.  It was interesting to see some small glimpse of what Helsinki have to offer. I am planning to go for at least few days in second semester of my study. The architecture and people there are so nice. Just perfect for photos.
Next was boat trip to Stockholm. It was my first time on boat these big, and on boat trip so long. We needed the whole night to get there. Actually more than the night. :P And because we had to do something in that time, there was party. As there always is on the boat. But the party was not the most interesting part of the trip for me. There were a lot of different people also on the boat, and it’s interesting what kind of people you can meet on these kind of trips. I’m telling you this because we meet a guy there, who was going home to Sweden. He seemed very normal. But the way of his thinking and looking at the world was the most interesting. He was talking a lot about aura and inner energies that we have. How we connect with each other. It was interesting because I’m skeptic about everything that I can’t touch or feel. And he was talking about something that is so abstract and unprovable. So I listened and analyze (I do that all the time and sometimes it’s kind of annoying). And at the end he did something to my left hand. Some of you may know that I don’t have left pinky. So he was holding his hand close to my left pinky. We were quiet and holding our hands that way for some time. Then the weirdest thing happened. I felt like I have the pinky. I don’t know if that is just because I wished to have it, nor if there is really something about energies. But I must say it was interesting, and it made me think. I know that I always try to explain stuff that can’t be directly proven, but I wonder what is around us and what do we not know jet. However, that was not the only part of the trip that was interesting. On the boat they had few bars and disco. And in one of the bars, they had live music. There was one girl from Sweden, her name was Alexandra and she was playing on the guitar and singing well know songs. Quite few of us stopped there and listen and sing with her.  It was just so nice, to listen to her. Combination of guitar and her voice was amazing. We were there till the end and we did not  want her to stop. It was great to have chance to meet her, but that again it’s sad, that she has to be performing on boat trips instead of filling great halls. Because she is amazing. There is just something about her that I like very much.   So that’s how we got to Stockholm. It was quite amazing :D I really like it. So yea, than we were in Stockholm. We had really little time to see all we wanted. But I made a plan. Took with me some books from library and a map. First we went around the old city center. Buildings there are awesome. I just love the old architecture. All the detail, and special pieces that buildings have. Royal palace was a bit disappointment. After that we went to Vasa ship museum. We got lucky and got bus ride for free :D Vasa ship museum is my favorite museum that I have ever been. I love history, and historical stuff.  So this was just as a desert for me. PERFECT! For all of you who don’t know what Vasa museum is GOOGLE IT :P  Just kidding. In this museum is the Vasa ship from 17th century.  Long story short; Vasa war ship was made in time of Swedish king Gustavus. Ship sailed on 10 August 1628 and sunk after sailing around 2km. Ship was then in the see, for quite some time and there was many that tried to get it out. But they did not succeed until 1959. Now the ship was mostly reconstructed and is in the Vasa museum. If you ever end up in Stockholm, this is a must see place. After this we had to rush back to the docs, which were far. But we did get there on time, unlike some other people and were left behind. Way back from Stockholm was not half as interested as way there. They replaced Alexandra with some crappy guy on piano. But the party in disco was a bit more alive. However, ship was much more unsteady so it was very strange to walk or sleep or anything else on the ship.
This trip was a lot of fun :D
See you around!
