Suddenly, I felt the touch of something bright and friendly. It made me feel happy and warm. That smile changed my life. I started to talk with the other students and made friends. Day by Day, I became closer to everyone in my class. The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now. One day, I asked him why he smiled, but he couldn’t remember smiling at me!

Market Square Start your visit at the open-air market at Market Square on the South Harbor.

Take a boat ride From the Market Square, there are four or five possible boat rides. You can take a boat to travel around the islands of Helsinki. Or, you can take a waterbus (水上巴士) to Helsinki Zoo. Go to Seurasaari (伴侣岛) Seurasaari is only minutes from the center of Helsinki. Once you cross the bridge to the island, you’ll find yourself in 18th and 19th century Finland. 26.
