A little bit about the Finnish Culture

Like I promised a while ago, this brief post is about Finnish men and women, based on my subjective experience. The first thing you notice is that Finnish people are very beautiful and they look way younger than they are. Maybe the latter is the benefit of little sun. 🙂 The issue, which was quite...

This time I really don't know how to start. So I am 'going back' to my childhood. When I was small, my parents were reading fairy-tales to me.
