ahhh but u embrace the cold by wondering around outdoor thermal pools semi naked all day
true it's dark and cold, but you get to see the northern lights if you're lucky and there's a very otherworldly vibe about the place
+ not as expensive as it was--+ as long as yer not going out on the big PISS, it's okay!

Austria sounds interesting.

done all three and liked Helsinki the best, but it depends on what you are going for - eg. Stockholm probably has best nightlife

They have started putting the German market up in Leeds, best time of the year if you're a sad cunt.

I love the forced jollity of the season and giving of crap that people neither want nor need.
