I had a little winter adventure yesterday.

Roadwork is planned on my street, and of course all cars need to be moved away. And of course it happens during winter, at -15 °C. So, first I had to dig my car out of a snowbank.

Of course, the battery was also a bit weak, but with the help of a power bank, the car started. The last question was, can I get out of the parking spot through the deep snow, or do I need to dig again? But it worked, and now the construction can start.

Winter is still the most challenging season for me – deep snow, icy paths, and freezing temperatures. I’m still impressed by how smoothly everyday life continues in Helsinki. Buses keep running, trams keep rolling, and even groundwork carries on as if the weather were nothing special.
