        Americans play "football" where players use their hands and the ball isn't round. Yet we finns are the weird ones? 🤔😉

        Half the people on Earth living north of the 60th parallel are Finns. Think about that – and the winters. You'd want to play air guitar too.

        Long winters require creative ways to keep people from going insane. A little craziness is better than a lot of murder.

        They enjoy life & a good sauna which is more than can be said for many Americans. A good example for the rest of us. Loved my visit there.
