Finnish adventure

You’re going on a cross-country trip. Airplane, train, bus, car, or bike?

If I’m going on a cross country trip in another country it would be Finland and I would travel by train. I’ve been travelling by tourist bus along the Torne River Valley region bordering in Lapland county of Finland and in Norrbotten county of Sweden. I’m of Finnish and Kven roots and these ancestors lived mostly in Finland and Sweden before migrating to Northern Norway in especially 1700s to 1800s. I also have roots further South in Finland like Oulu, Kajaani, Rautalampi and Vyborg (last one which is currently in Russian territory). But Finland actually has real railroads and trains across the country unlike Norway where all the railroads stop in Nordland county. And I also enjoy Finnish language and culture independent of my ancestry and genetics.

And of course visiting Helsinki would also be great and to say to others some Finnish phrases.

Love from Northern regions tonight ❤

I live in Finnmark county and I write about many different topics. This is where I express my mind in words. I love drum&bass, dubstep and metal.
