I am completely baffled by this information you have given me. I shall share it with all of my friends whom I only call by their first name! :O Which is all of them. I don't even know second names' of half of them.

Do come visit, even if there's not much anything to see. Unless you really like lakes and forests. Well, there's some stuff in Helsinki, but most of it is pretty small.

It is. Like I don't know if people think it awkward that I've seen my da naked? But that's really common here, where whole families go to saunas together.
Idk either. Maybe it's because up until 1940s most of Finnish children were born in saunas (including my grandma, I've actually been to that sauna, was very good), so you know, it feels safe. And warmth is good during the winter.

Really? You will have a fun fact to tell tomorrow then! Why don't you know them? Don't your teachers call you buy your full names when taking attendance?

I will, and I know, but take away the mountains and you got Norway... So I probably won't go for the nature, even if it is quite beautiful, I would probably go to Helsinki. And I am used to pretty small, basically all the towns I've lived in have been 20.000 people ones and they are average size in Norway so yeah.

I don't think it is awkward, a bit abnormal maybe, but then again my mother comes into the bathroom when I am in the shower and stuff (when she is visiting, she did the same when I was younger too tho) and so on, but in general it isn't normal to see other people naked, heck even our public pools are building more and more shower stalls and single person changing rooms because people wont be naked around other people of the same gender...

Oh I did not know that! That is pretty cool, but wouldn't giving birth in a sauna become too hot? Or maybe it is relaxing? Warmth is awesome during the winter! Not so much during the summer, I don't like it when it gets too warm in the Summer and spend most of the time in the shades, anything above 25C in the sun is too warm for me.

In university we mark our names in a little paper that goes around the class, or no one asks at all. Back in upper secondary school my school was so small that everybody knew each other by first name in like a week. Before that the teacher's just asked if people were present by first name, and if there were two people with same name they used the first letter of surname to differentiate. Or cute nicknames.
In official papers and such where full name is expected to be given we have to underline the name we're called, so there's no confusion.

Ah then you'll have trouble with Helsinki. The city center is really small, but there's a lot more stuff surrounding it. I grew up there. Moved to a smaller city in Middle-Finland for university.

Our public pools have like one big shower room, and no private changing rooms, because it's not like there's anything you haven't seen before. And saunas!

I don't think they heated it all the way up. It was the most hygienic room people had in the countryside, so giving birth in the sauna was the most safe for both mom and kid in terms of like infections.
I prefer cold myself. My optimal temperature is like between -5 and -15. I can't stand the summer heat at all.

Hm that is odd... But it works for you guys so keep being special Finland!

Why would I have trouble with Helsinki?

I think I would feel awkward doing that, but I really do envy you guys for it!

Oh that makes sense! I prefer the spring, but winter is no issue I still walk around in a dress and stuff, as long as it isn't more than -25Cish it isn't too cold to do it, even then I might still have a skirt on because I never look at the temperature before going outside, and I never learn.

You bet we will.

Oopsies, I forgot a no there, pfff. You'd have NO trouble with Helsinki, the place is a piece of cake. :D

Yeah I can see that.

The only thermometer in my apartment is in my roommate's room, and I always leave before he does, so yeah. I might look outside and guess, but most often I just go out and hope I put enough clothes on. Usually I put on a bit too much, because I want to take no risks, walking 2,5 km to school in too few clothes is a pain.
