■Expedition to Finland 2018: Day Three

It’s our third day in Finland. Today, we are going to move from Kisakallio to Turku, where the “Turku Gymnaestrada” is to be held.

Today’s schedule is to practice from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the gym in Kisakallio and then an hour-and-a-half bus trip to Turku. We could only stay in Kisakallio for two days, but I really appreciate that we had a lot of wonderful experiences thanks to the people we met in Kisakallio through Men’s Rhythmic Gymnastics.

We stayed in this villa for two days.

The gym in Kisakallio

The city of Turku is about two hours from Helsinki. It used to be one of the most important cities in Finland and we can still see very old and historical buildings there today. The hotel we stayed at in Turku is in the center of the city and is very convenient to everywhere.

The Gymnaestrada is going to start tomorrow! First, we will take part in the opening ceremony. We are looking forward to seeing and hearing various things and to experience something new here!
