My turn to add my experience about Helsinki.

My trip
I was in Helsinki mid-June for 7 days, with a wing (both intermediate game).
I had 3 close and my wing one.

Where to sleep
As usual, logistics are crucial. We stayed at the cheapest hotel : Omena Hotel Lönnrotinkatu (price around 55-70€/night). My wing had problems bring there 2 girls, but I havent had any. Maybe an Airbnb is a better idea. However the hotel is 10min walk of the nightclub : perfect!

Girls
I find finnish girls extremly sexy: almost my type. Lots of blondes, big boobs, not too tall though. They are definitely not shy: EC like crazy so look for them (and approach after), I saw 2 guys in a club at the table being approached by 2 girls and some girls invited my wing and I in their car to go to a club only 2 min after meeting us in the street! As for personnality, they seem very independant indeed.
Overall, they are a bit easy, but you need Game nonetheless.

Daygame
I'm not good and didnt do much in daygame, but I would just recommend around the railway station/Mannerheimvägen

Nightgame
-Kaivohuone
Was there a saturday night. plenty of people & Hot girls yes but it seems people there are here to be seen, not sleep around. Won't recommend

-Tiger club
Read it here about it. Closed now

-Miliklubi
Read so much about it, I came there (tuesday night) expecting easy close and whatnot. Was disappointed : lot of hipsters, girls not so easy and not so cute (compared to average finnish), more guys than girls (which in Finland is shocking. I swear the ratio there is 60 girls - 40 men). A girl told me it was famous 2 years ago for the easy hookup but not anymore. Maybe worth a look during weekend but wont recommend.

-Namu
POOSY Paradise! Lot of hotties (but never overcrowded), good ratio men-women (60-40 at midnight, but going to 50-50 at the end), girls receptive : definite YES here! Got my 3 pull there and an almost instant threesome. It's THE spot IMO any day. I recommend going for midnight and start the superstar game (see below). If I went there every night, I probably would be at 5 close.

Game
As for the guys, they dont approach at the start of the night : they need alcohol first and are usually quite quiet. At the end they're drunk and approach. It's easy to AMOG them: go talk to them, then the girl and they will leave without a word. If they approach you when you're in set, ignore and they will leave.

How to best tweak your game:
Dont talk too much, it's best to let her talk more, they like the confident a bit quiet alpha male.

As for girls I would recommend In the Namu a superstar game :
-Go early in the club (around midnight)
-Approach a group of guys, befriend them, and after 5 min leave the group. Make sure everyone else see the guys loving you
-Talk to your wing or chill for 5 min
-Repeat for another group of guys
-Chill
-Approach a group of girls (hot or not), start gaming and after 5-10min when they're hooked, leave (tell them you'll talk to them again later). Make a mental note about their receptivity.
-Chill
-Do the same with another group of girls
-repeat cycle several times
-At the end of the night (for HEL, 2-2:30) reopen the group where a girl is hot and the most receptive. Game normally, suggest the pull (for me, the best was to tell them we'll go get something to eat even though we didnt after) and pull to your hotel
-

Overall in Helsinki
7 days is too much there, I would recommend 4 and 4 at Tallin (you can take the boat: easy and cheap). The flag is quite easy, girls are hot, but there isn't much to visit during the day if like me you want to do it during the day. The city is nice to walk in though.

Pretty much my experience, I mentioned in my thread Tinder was also gold there.

[James Bond Next level]

Maybe cause we're both french & sexy?

Regarding Tinder, I had very quick match but only started swiping at the end of my trip, so couldnt meet. So pipelining would definitely be a good option to keep you busy.

Was there very recently and have to say JBNL nailed it. Nearly all the action is downtown, which isn't all that big, but Google maps is your friend. A few other observations:

Millionaire Club is shit, from what I heard. I didn't even go, but women in town all thought it was crap, though they didn't mention the Roosh exposure specifically.

Virgin Oil I was told this downtown club caters to a younger crowd; not sure whether that makes it easier or not but FYI.

On the Rocks - great place to see a live band or just grab a beer with some regular folks. Open late. Finland has a metal/hard rock scene that's surprisingly popular.

Steam: As the name suggests, steampunk themed club with a small cover and plenty of tables, DJ but no big dance floor. Good drinks, open late, but more of a hipster vibe going on. Not the best place to pull.

Lolyly: A short uber ride from the city center, towards the south, on the water. Excellent place to catch an afternoon cocktail and watch the sailboats when the sun is out. They even had a sauna which you can rent towels and use after taking a dip in the water. Finns love their saunas, for sure. Perfect spot for people watching, though it had more of an old friend vibe going; not sure how easy it would be to make a pull there, but worth it for the views and above average eye candy there.

Uber is currently illegal there (still slugging it out with the Taxi union), but there are a handful of drivers doing it anyway. They will ask you to sit up front so as not to look like an Uber, so do them a favor and cooperate. Also it's good if you get let off not far from the hotel entrance versus them having to pull right up to the door. And yes, in Helsinki as mentioned earlier, logistics will matter the most and many hotels are a long walk (probably too long) from the city center.

Overall, you definitely don't need more than a few days there. Just don't find yourself in Helsinki during Midsummer (early June) as it will look and feel like a ghost town - everything is closed and all the Finns are out getting hammered on Vodka around campfires. As others mentioned though, it is definitely a time that will set the biological clock ticking a bit louder with the older girls who've yet to settle down. They say a lot of babies are born nine months after Midsummer and I believe it. Once everything is back to normal, Helsinki is a late night town and Finns are pretty reserved until they start drinking. Even then they really don't open up a lot until after midnight, when it's game on. I snagged a few examples of the local talent one afternoon, but briefly, they are:

Often hot:


Not quite as tall and slender Russian girls, on average, but


still mostly in good shape:


And they still make an effort to look good.


Yet they are much less likely to wear heels.


That said the multi-colored hair hambeasts are around (couldn't bear to post a pic), and even on decent looking women, tattoos in unflattering areas are not uncommon.

Nice info on this thread, thanks guys. Will be Finland on business in Aug & Sept. Anyone around hit me up on PM, always down for a drink with a fellow RVFer.

…also, is Porvoo worth a daytrip from Helsinki?

Need local advice from a Finn.

Should I celebrate New Years in Helsinki or Barcelona?

I celebrated in Sweden and Iceland in the past. There's a lot of anticipation days before, so people don't really go out. From Jan 1 for a couple days, it's a family day. Nobody goes out. It can be lonely and isolated if one doesn't have any established network. I know it takes time to invest into building a good network there, since Scandinavians take their time to befriend a new person.

I was in Helsinki a couple years ago and would have to rebuild my social / business network. This would take some effort, but it would be worth it to establish some connection in Scandinavia. I connect with the culture and will return more often for business and party.

Not sure if it's worth it to roll the dice on a party with tons of expectations or to go Barcelona. BCN's weather is nice, beaches, museums, heard a lot of foreign girls go there. There would be plenty to do there as a tourist / vacation and would check it off my list. I don't connect with Latin cultures, so I would gravitate towards other tourists. This is how I experienced Italy.

I went there to shop and met a very intelligent / attractive Lithuanian girl - long legs who was studying there. Hung out with her, and she was way more relaxed and attractive than the locals. I didn't (care to) connect with the local Italian girls. They had too much attitude for their looks. Even the local Italian guys pursued the foreign girls more than their native girls.
