Hanna Salonen Quotations

Here it seems like everything is deep fried and somehow not very organic at all. You eat it because it's so cheap, and after you eat it, you feel sick.

I went (back) to Finland, and stayed there and the only thing I was focusing on was how I wanted to come back.

I went to Finland this Christmas, and my mom told me to make a list of things I wanted, and she fixed it all.

I was really missing everybody so I spent most of my time talking to people online. Most of the time, he was the only one online so I started talking to him. So I guess AIM brought us together.

I was really excited. I didn't miss home at all because that was all I wanted the whole time was to come back here.

I'm not planning on going this summer. I just don't want to go because somehow I just feel like my life is here right now.

I knew it could be the best year or the worst year. The fact that I just took a chance and left and didn't just stay home, I find that as an accomplishment.

I really want to go out there and take pictures of what I find interesting and not like, these set-ups of life.

In (a Finnish) university, normally you don't have an art department like we have here. Back there, photography is more journalism.

I had friends who were RAs before and they kind of inspired me and I was like, yeah I can do that, I will enjoy that. And there were so many things I didn't see what they were doing.

I didn't expect that I would meet this many people. Not only have I met people from my floor, but people all around the building. You know faces so much more.
