Happy Independence Day Finland! Kippis! Hyvää syntymäpäivää!

It’s Finland’s Independence Day. Reddit front page is celebrating. Shots of Jaloviina and salmiakki all around. Kippis!

We got to know Finland because of Nokia and now come to appreciate Finland and the Finns as much as Nokia itself.

Hello Finland! Finland’s awesome! Finland Rock’s my Soul! Jump to 1:35

Somewhat connected, I saw this video this morning – how to make small talk in Finland. I thought it was interesting as usually whenever Finland is mentioned, Nokia isn’t far behind. I think the actual creators are from Finland.
