Finland
Created | Updated Apr 17, 2002
"The Jewel of the Baltic" (or so it should be called), Finland is a land of forests, trees and lakes (and the occasional cow turd, but apparently it's healthy for you...). A common misconception is that this wondrous corner of the world is covered in snow 365 days a year. Well for all you dunderheads who agree, let me set the record straight. During the summer, the sun shines all day and night and one can swim in the lakes, pick berries and mushrooms, milk the cows, and for one final shot of "Sound-of-Music-ness" you can run throughout the land singing its praises! What a life, eh?
