Between all those weird days as Runeberg's Day, Friendship Day/Valentine's Day and the upcoming Kalevala Day it's time for a short update.
So last week some friends of mine had an appointment in a little town called Rauma and that was for me the opportunity to join them since a 1,5h bus ride is much more fun with nice company. 
So Rauma is a special town for me. For once my best friend Tellu is living there and it is always great to see her but I also had my first snow in Finland there in October 2005. :) So for me this was the first time that I saw Rauma in real Winter and well I still have to say it is a little bit more interesting in summer but still very beautiful in winter. My Problem was that it was freezing cold and so windy that it made the sightseeing a challenge. 
As always I love to show Tellu Finland and it is always nice but to show her her own city is very funny, especially since I know the touristic sides much better. Anyway we did a little tour through the old city part which is THE tourist attraction. And surprisingly the Old 
City of Rauma changed during the past 5 years. Most surprisingly the Hesburger (Finnish version of McDonals and makes the best cheeseburgers ever!!) moved out of an old wood building. Well besides the lacking of Hesburger I had a great day with
good friends, learned a lot new things, went back on memory lane and realized how important it is to have cash 
money with you. :D They should really tell that to Americans before coming to Finland ;) Enjoy the photographs!
