Explaining winter ...

... and a lot of other very Finnish things to foreigners.

The first 16 pictures explain our country, language and customs in great detail. Also, to be almost on topic, there’s a Jaguar with a woolen sweater on. Rolling with laughter

Enjoy your Friday. Thumbs Up

Only thing I didn't like in Finland was the licourice. I bought a bag of mixed sweets that had some in there, bad move. It's truly, truly, truly disgusting. I tried them, I tried to like them, but they all ended up getting spat out for the reindeer or binned. Did I not say they were truly disgusting? Whistle

Licorice takes some time to adjust to. Not everybody likes it in the beginning. Google mämmi if you want to see what we eat for Easter.

Also requires an acquired taste. Thumbs Up

No ta, I tend to avoid anything that is described as an acquired taste. Will stock up on scoobie snacks/food/beer in Poland, which will cost the same in Zlotys as Finnish supermarkets charge in €s. Whistle Whistle

Could bring a crate or two of stuff for you (plenty of space) but the nearest I'll be to Helsinki is Kuhmo. Assuming the car gets that far. Laughing Laughing

If you've not seen it before, kajtzu, you might like Scandinavia & the World comic with occasional Finnish fun.
