Bringing back my favourite quote from this Finnish diva because frankly there’s nothing that captures the Finnish identity quite as well as this.
Translation:
“What does Finland mean to you?”
Emilia Friman, 6: “Nothing.”

Hit that 1 week mark of relentless sinus infection following from an equally relentless two weeks of Covid so celebrated this with a very out of breath outing in the Welsh winter sun in a look that can only be described as Paddington core ☀️
