気分は春 Spring is in the air
ヘルシンキにも、少しずつですが確実に春の気配がやってきました。 雪解けが一気に進んで、街には散歩やジョギングを楽しむ人が増えてきています。 「このまま一気に春だ！」と思った頃に、あと数回どかっと雪が降ってきて、「あ、そうだ。ここ北欧だった…」と現実に引き戻されるのが、だいたい3月から4月です（笑）。 それでも、この季節になると不思議と明るく春らしい服を着たくなります。近所の古着屋さんものぞいてみたら、マリメッコの服がなかなか充実していました Spring is slowly but surely making its way to Helsinki. The snow is melting quickly, and you can already see more people out walking and jogging around the city. Just when you start thinking, “That’s it, spring has arrived!” a few heavy snowfalls usually come along to remind you:“Oh right… this is the Nordics.” That’s typically March and April for you. Still, this time of year somehow makes me want to wear brighter, springlike clothes. I stopped by a local second hand shop the other day, and they actually had quite a good selection of Marimekko pieces.
