Ημερομηνία δημιουργίας / 2016 / Εβδομάδα 6
Frankfurt Airport Terminal A
Mobile installation in atrium of popular hub for flights across Europe. Now morning daylight, arrival was dark on overnight trans-Atlantic leg. On time schedule and loose connection have enough time for shower and leisurely breakfast in Senator Lounge. Stiffness and dull headache chills be treated, but first have to sit on another plane for a free hours. (Frankfurt Airport, Terminal A, Germany) 20160131
Local tax office
Arrived just before 4:15pm when doors are closed, while government employees continue serving visitors inside. Alternative to 35% withholding for non-residents to Finland is to get a tax card and be calculated on the progressive rate. When income is low, having a tax card could pre-empt having to file a tax return available only in the Finnish or Swedish language in the next year. (Vero Skatt, Fennia-kortteli, Helsinki, Finland) 20160203
Post-lecture dinner
Warm hospitality following pattern of preparing dinner in AS's kitchen, coming up to Chinese New Year. Old friends and new acquaintances numbered 13 around the table this time. Menu favourites included vegetarian ma po tofu and stick dried bean curd (foo jook) and reconstituted dried shitake mushrooms brought in suitcase from Toronto. Switched seats before dessert to talk to more people at the long table. (Töölö, Helsinki, Finland) 20160202
Hakaniemi Market
Fishmonger filets pike-perch (kasvatettu siika), as I requested a whitefish for soup tomorrow. She and a passing customer recommended against the hauki (pike) which has many small bones. The advice of a professional is preferred since I'm less proficient varieties of fish, particularly when they're named in Finnish. (Ekströms Fiskebod, Hakaniemi Market, Helsinki, Finland) 20160201
Hellsten Parliament
Arrived at Helsinki apartment for 3-week stay. Smaller room, just the basics for me. Teaching 2 days per week, a few other meetings, but lots of opportunities to visit with friends. (Museokatu, Helsinki, Finland) 20160131
Cafe Tin Tin Tango
Meeting venue popular with coffee up front, laundromat in the back. Fortunately, no clothes were being cleaned while we had our research discussion, so we could sit near a power outlet. Had kaneli pulla (cinnamon buns) with herbal teas. Wifi is available for free 30 minutes at a time, so camping out for the day is monitored by servers. Lavatory was practically Japanese in the economy of space. (Cafe Tin Tin Tango, Toolo, Helsinki, Finland) 20160203
Museokatu laneway
Apartment windows look out over open parking behind five storey buildings with commercial businesses that face the street on the other side. View west doesn't provide much sunlight, and dusk is relatively early at this northern latitude. Having a three-metre day, grading student work for tomorrow's lecture. (Hellsten Parliament Apartments, Museokatu, Helsinki, Finland) 20160204![Kiasma](_data/i/upload/2018/11/03/20181103174201-344820c4-sm.jpg "Kiasma (2201 επισκέψεις) Art is free on first Friday night of the month at the Kiasma.

Kiasma
Art is free on first Friday night of the month at the Kiasma. The exhibition of "Demonstrating Minds: Disagreements in Contemporary Art" may reflect the prevailing pessimistic mood in the country. The long slow ramp up to the second floor is a famous feature designed by architect Stephen Holl. (Kiasma, Helsinki, Finland) 20160205
