Silja Line Ferry from Helsinki to Stockholm
This is a top pick! I'm taking off today and can't wait to hit up Sweden!!! Finland was entirely uneventful and I wish I had used the opportunity to get better rested but it was cool to see a familiar face after Russia. Yan joins me for breakfast at the local ...
The crew and a smattering of Islands
This is such a beautiful archipelago, that I completely understand why it is such a popular sailing area for both Fins and Swedes. On one side, I'm grateful that mass tourism hasn’t discovered this area yet, but on the other side, it’s such ...
Keep walking
... my Finnish schedule completely, but hopefully will be worth it. So I caught in Stockholm, on Wednesday afternoon, the slow boat to Mariehamn, which brought me here before eight in the morning. My only other option would be to take a later boat and arrive ...
Casinos, Dinos and cleaning
In the end I got a job, two in fact. Putting my degree into full use by cleaning at a mingolf course and a new, rather swanky, nightclub. Actually it wasn't so bad, I spent my days cleaning while singing at the top of my voice (really out of tune), ...

Far from the madding crown in Aland land!
... – too much power walking! Is it too soon to have a drink do you think? 9.50? Probably! We are due to arrive in Mariehamn (think that is how you spell it) at 12, and the latest is that we will be tendering in (ie going ashore in the lifeboats) ...

In the middle of nowhere
Allo! I'm in the A lands now finally. I'm actually not in Mariehamn (main port), I'm on Kiruna which is a lot further from everything than I realised (won't even register on this travel sight). I took the 6 hour ferry from Turku. Arrived in Mariehamn and ...
Cruise to Helsinki
In the moening we headed off to the Vasamuseet. It.s a giant boat the capsizedoff the coast of Sweden 300 years ago. They found it in the bay and nowhave preserved it in a giant museum. Everything you ever wanted to know about that boat is there. We took ...
Thai food every day
