So as my new annual tradition I travelled to Finland to visit Tessa and Tara. I appear to be going there earlier and earlier in the year; 2015 was in July, 2016 was in June and this year was April-May.
This year I went there to celebrate Vappu which for those of you who don't know is May Day. The first of May is celebrated by everyone but especially the students, who past and present wear the white graduation caps (You'll see them in the pictures below)
The traditional drink (non-alcoholic) is called Sima, if you saw it you would not want to drink it, honestly it does not look appealing but tastes so much better than it looks and they also have a traditional snack which I do not know the name of or what it is but it tastes like deep fried sugary goodness and I loved it.

Places I'd love to visit
So over the last couple of years I've visited various different places around the UK. I've been to Cardiff, Wolverhampton, Doncaster, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester plus all over London (considering I live there). Up until last year England and Wales was the extent of my travelling experiences but then I went to Finland. Now I'm addicted to travelling and I just want to get back on a plane again and see more places.
