Healthy Coffee for the Traveler

Published by cookietravels under shopping

My family who recently visited us in Finland can’t help noticing the price of commodities in this Nordic region. Their comment: expensive! But still we shop especially for souvenirs, dine and taste Finland’s coffee. When we toured Helsinki, we sat down inside a shopping center for a cup of coffee and my dad was shocked at the price of their cappuccino. It depends on the coffee shop actually.

There’s another kind of coffee that travelers can try. This one is good for the health coz it has over 150 different antioxidants per cup plus a total of 200 active nutrients. If you take a cup of coffee which has the secret ingredient Ganoderma or reishi think about the following health benefits you can get. It will make you feel younger and alert, and also, reduces mental and physical fatigue, supports and modulates the immune system, and rejuvenates at cellular level. And unlike complaints from other coffee drinkers about lack of proper sleep due to coffee, this healthy coffee on the other hand gives you a good night’s rest, just what travelers need. What’s great about this coffee is, as a whole, it improves your overall performance for another day of walking and touring.

Inside the Satakunta Museum, Finland

Published by cookietravels under travels & trips

We reached Satakunta Museum a few minutes after 5PM and it closes at 6PM during summer. So we had an hour to explore what’s inside the Satakunta Museum. The entrance fee for adults cost 4 Euros while for children 7-17 years old it costs 1.5 Euros. After purchasing our tickets, we were given a guide (manual not a human guide) in English. It was helpful coz we found out that the captions inside the exhibition room are in Finnish.

There were two exhibition rooms we had to visit. One room with three floors contained the permanent exhibition Satakunta - ‘Born in the Embrace of Water’. The other room is located at the ground floor and focuses more on the history of Pori since 1558. Frankly, even with the English guide or booklet, we were sometimes caught in a time consuming situation where we had to figure out which artifact and display it was referring to.

To be continued…
