Where to in Helsinki: Andante

I love travelling! What’s my secret for finding the coolest locations? I dig through Foursquare, Pinterest and Instagram for hours till I’m happy with what I see and want to experience. Then the fun begins! Once I see the main touristic sights and get tired of architecture, I go into the tiny colourful shops and street cafes. If you find yourself in Helsinki, here’s one cafe you simply cannot miss! It is called Andante and is owned by a young Japanese couple. They opened the place first as a flower shop and then extended it into a cafe. For the time I was there, I tried their matcha latte and sat on a bench right next to this fluffy bunny which was constantly asking to be petted. Andante was exactly the experience I was looking for. The food they offer is light and healthy, the coffee – so delicious, and the atmosphere is super peaceful. If you ever go to Helsinki, check this cafe out!
