21 May, Oulu
Oulu is the fifth biggest city in Finland and one of the largest northern cities in the world, I gather. From wikipedia, sorry, and even then I quite possibly got that wrong. It seems nice. It is all green and tech-y, with full on gradation of waste/recycling so you have about seven bins to choose from when you throw things out, and so on. Public art everywhere, mainly sculptures. I got in about three hours ago and have ridden around town once, thinking mainly about this new video I'm making (sorry) but also stuff like, where can I get a map of this place. And I possibly can't, except online.
