    Big Day!

    Tomorrow's one of my favourite days! It's getting on the plane day!

    The shuttle is picking me up around 5pm and then I'm off to Toronto to get on my Finnair flight. This is my first trans-atlantic flight without someone to travel with me, which is a bit daunting. More than anything, the waiting around at the airport for 3 hours before departure all by myself is going to drive me crazy.

    I'm meeting my friend Ren's friend Atte in Helsinki upon arrival and he's going to give me a quick and dirty tour of the city. I'll spend the night at his place and get back on the plane in the morning to go to Paris.

    I've got 2 days in Paris (well, 1 and a half, and a bit) to explore and see as much as I possibly can. I'm hoping to do a bike tour on Saturday (I've heard great things about Fat Tire Bike Tours so I think I'll check 'em out http://fattirebiketours.com/paris ) and then I'll know where to explore at night. Cuz, really, what would a trip to the city of Lights be without a night stroll? Hope I make some friends in the hostel!!
