. As a pretty clever marketing ploy, the Helsinki Airport invited Chinese actor and TV personality, Ryan Zhu, to live in the city's airport for 30 days.
As noted on the
campaign website
, the Helsinki Airport is the most
-connected
airport in Northern Europe and it serves
over 18 million passengers each year.
It's also been awarded the
best airport
in the world by Travellink. To find out if it really is the "best airport in the world," you can follow Zhu's journey on social media with the hashtag, #LIFEINHEL. Each of the 30 days is made into a short video, which you can find

From following checked luggage to experiencing a Helskini stopover, Zhu discovered the ins and outs of everything "the best airport in the world" has to offer in 30 days.
Zhu moved in on October 10 and completed the 30 days last week. He slept in a small cabin set up for him inside the airport terminal. His prize? A trip to the up-and-coming Finnish Lapland with friends and family.
