I have so much to say about Finland already, but this will be a short one because posting from a phone after midnight just isn’t going to deliver quality.
Earlier this year on a tumblr project started by my friend Sara, I briefly described the loss of my beloved sheep hat.
Since then, I’ve been looking for my next signature winter hat. I thought when I went to Gothenburg in December, that surely I would find a suitable Swedish-made wooly hat, preferably involving some kind of antlered creature design. But I found nothing! In winter! In Sweden!
So imagine my delight when today, in the market square of Helsinki, in a 30 degree heat wave, I found a PERFECT wooly, Finnish reindeer hat. Which I bought without even thinking. I love it and I hope it lasts me at least another ten years.
