Cafe Success! I find lonely planet is better for finding things off the beaten/touristy path

Seconding Lonely Planet. I've used that site for years to avoid crowds - even before avoiding crowds was what everyone was doing, hah.

If you like beaches, try Kivinokka. It's within walking distance of the Kulosaari metro station, and it's absolutely breathtaking. Also far fewer people than the other more popular beaches.

I would love to go there. I had a friend who visited and said it was stunning. Its on my bucketlist for sure.

Although not exactly secret, I would suggest strolling down the Ruoholahti canal and making your way to the former Lapinlahti psychiatric hospital location if you enjoy the sea and greenery. Following the seashore in the direction of Hietalahti beach, etc., is simple from there.

I want to know the same thing too. I haven't been there yet. So firsthand experience of people who actually went there will be helpful.

Hello plant fishes, need some help saving my myranta prayer plant. It was healthy and had around 15 leaves before it slowly started dying. I think it is either because I added fertilizer and it did not like it or because of underwatering when I was away traveling. I looked at the root system and didn't notice any rot. Anything I can do to save it? Thanks for your help!

Found a random engagement ring.

Hi all, so I found a platinum ring (which I assumed it's an engagement ring as it has dates and initials engraved on top.) And a Divvy tag (I have no idea what it was until I googled it. Apparently it's a bike sharing service in Chicago) in a briefcase I ordered online. I was thinking of returning the item back to the store but that wouldn't help the person who lost the ring. Attached is a picture of them.

What should I do now?
