Marimekko Iloinen Change Purse / Red Flashlight Pendant

To an outsider in search of a good meal, what is perhaps most striking about Helsinki are the vegan options. In every restaurant, you will find lactose- and meat-free meals without requesting special treatment.

I, then, want to visit a garage sale and know that I can stretch the tote bag to squeeze in a new hoodie.
