About this blog
Life is full of compromises. So is this blog. My family and friends in Finland speak Finnish or Swedish as a native language. Almost all of them understand English, but none of them speaks or understands German. My German family and friends understand English, but not a word Finnish. Friends outside Finland and Germany are not all native English speakers, but they all understand it.
Let´s put it short: There is a good reason why I´m writing this blog in English! Any complaints about my English to:
Finnish Board of Education
PO Box 380
