Poets of the Fall in Helsinki!

Marko! The singer of Poets of the Fall <3 <3 <3
Hey-o! Let's just jump right in...

Me and two other friends took the night train to Helsinki (the capital) on Friday night, arrived Saturday at 7am, left at 7am on Sunday, and arrived back home in Oulu at 2pm. Even though we only spent the day there on Saturday, I had the most wonderful time! We saw so much! Many, many strange things haha! 

My favorite part was definitely the last thing we did though, which was see Poets of the Fall!!! but I'll get back to that later :P


Helsinki was all Christmasy everywhere! :D

LOTS of Christmas markets with LOTS of awesome things!

This pic does not do justice to how pretty Stockmann was.
The inside was amazing as well! and SO busy!

In Finland, doesn't matter if there's snow.
People still walk their dogs and
pull their children :)

At the Sibelius Monument!
He's a famous Finnish composer :)

If I added a lock, it would say,
"Hannah <3's Finland!"
Marko again. I think I'm in love
Rhythm guitarist, Jaska. More love

Olli, lead guitar
"Captain", keyboard
Jani, bass guitar
Jari, drums
love, love, love, love!


















Ok, seriously. If you still haven't listened to Poets of the Fall, do it NOW! They are so amazing! I love literally every song of theirs. This concert was so amazing! They sounded so great and I was center, 2nd row! Also, I touched Marko's hand 3 times! and made eye contact! I thought I was going to die! His voice... mmm! All of them are really great! They put on a fantastic show! So much fun! I can not believe that it only cost 17 euro and they're not more famous!

Here are some of my favorite songs of theirs
for you to listen to (but seriously, they are all 
great so this is only the beginning.)

Carnival of Rust
Lift
Locking Up the Sun
Cradled in Love
War
Sleep
Dreaming Wide Awake
Can You Hear Me
Diamonds for Tears
Illusion and Dream
No End No Beginning
Late Goodbye
Where Do We Draw the Line
Roses
Heal My Wounds
Temple of Thought

Ok, so that was a little more than a few, but now you have no excuse! :D

I don't know if I've said it enough for it to sink in yet or not, but I LOVE FINLAND! I can't believe I have less than 2 weeks... I'm really going to miss it here <3

Until next time,
-Hannah :)

  1. Thank you for introducing the Poets of the Fall to me Hannah; this is awesome! Did the Marko see you in the crowd and point to you while singing? :P Sounds like Finland is like a second home to you :) Be safe on your trip back and try not to let time pass too quickly!
