En: The streets of Kallio glimmered vividly with autumn leaves. Fi: Torilla oli vilinää, kun ihmiset kuljeskelivat kojujen välissä ihaillen käsintehtyjä tuotteita, kirjavia lankoja ja vanhoja vinyylilevyjä. En: There was a bustle in the square as people strolled between stalls, admiring handmade goods, colorful yarns, and old vinyl records. Fi: Ilma oli raikasta ja viileää, juuri sellaista, joka muistuttaa lähestyvästä talvesta. En: The air was fresh and cool, just the kind that reminds one of the approaching winter.
