Helsinki, day 1 – Nokialand

Basic thoughts.

If you’re finnish, you work for Nokia. No brainer. If you’re not working for Nokia itself, you work for a company that works for Nokia. If you’re not, than you might want to reconsider your nationality cause probably something is wrong with you.

It’s not like Silicon Valley – there’s a wide range of companies out there, it’s probably more like Redmont. Crazy! And I’m f**cked up since I have Samsung…

Finnish people are so much nicer than swedish ones. Sorry, I love my friends from Sweden, but they’re exceptions! Finnish people are smiling, laughing, they’re very, very friendly, you have to like them from the first moment simply because you see that they like you 🙂

I need to get used to their way of how they talk. They’re calmer, speaking slower, comparing to me, not mentioning that superfast speaking android – Termie.
I love their cuisine. It’s full of sandwiches, pickles, cheese, blue cheese, chicken, meat balls, and pastas. They don’t go the easier way serving bolonese etc., they go with their own kinds like a pasta with a chicken and a lemon sauce, pasta with coconut milk, sweet chili, almonds and meat. It’s awesome!

I’m tired 🙂
