Tidbits from Lauttasaari

So, finally the island has gotten some decent cafées. It tended to become rather monotonous to always meet up at Mutteri. But now olipa kerran kahvila at Gyldénintie (next to the metro entrance) and Makers Cafe at Heikkiläntie (next to Shell) offers a cosy atmosphere and good coffee. Both are, interestingly enough, focusing on raw food, ecological ingredients and sustainable solutions. That said they then diverge into two very different paths, which is reassuring.

Woop woop, with a bang and a whizz the small mall reopened, only half a year late. And yes, we can now see the metro signs, and the stairs going down undergrund. But we have no access. The metro is delayed, following a delay, that came on top of another delay. Also, the main road in front of the mall is a bumpy one, to state it mildly. Yes, i know all these gripes are of minor importance, that there are larger fish to fry, but these issues affect me every day. They are a part of my existence, and so i think i can whine about them, at least a little bit. Because in so many ways life is both about the little things, and the big things, all mixed up. Know what i mean?
