First of all, thanks to Finnair for opening two direct routes from Helsinki to California. The horror of the return flight is much more bearable when you get to experience it in its entirety in the same airplane.
San Francisco went straight to the Top three of my favourite cities with Cape Town and Chicago. A wonderful collection of authentic neighbourhoods by the water. My favourite spot is Pacific Heights that apparently is one of the richest neighbourhoods in the world. Maybe that’s why they also have the best bookshops.
Hotel Boheme is a surprisingly authentic trip to the ‘50s beat SanFran, with pictures of the writers and free sherry before dinner. I loved the experienced staff who really knew how to strike a conversation with the strangest of customers.
I have a weak spot for Sausalito because of Fleetwood Mac. If you manage to get there, you might as well explore the Redwood Forest. It really is as amazing as they say. Take the bus.
