36 hours till i head off on summer holidays. a super long 4,5 weeks away this time. a mixture of hyper anticipation and feeling a bit down too - not being in helsinki in july is almost a crime. hopefully august will also be kind to me.

songs of the momemnt:
the national: “about today”
snow patrol + martha wainwright: “set the fire to the third bar“

ive been very lucky over the last few years to spend my midsummers at some really nice summer cottages with friends - my luck continued again this year. (pics on flickr).

update: look! a video

what are the chances that the picture of tom on myspace is the most viewed single picture in the history of humanity?

still uploading pictures from copenhagen. so far some pics of friday night at cphdistortion. to come: random pics of soccer stuff and ørestad. (update: all there now)

irish people, go here and look, then go there and have a look. its on when im at home too. which is nice.

flowers bring concrete steps to life. a fantastic idea by artist kaisa salmi for the front part of the eduskuntatalo (finnish parliment) here in helsinki

new tram line construction going on here in helsinki - on this page there are some pdfs of the proposals for simonkatu, mikonkatu and kaivokatu.
