what about Hungary mann? Nekem nagyon tetszik Magyarország. A land with rich history, beautiful landscapes, opened pusztas, soulfull folk music, mighty buildings and extremely versatile Finno-Ugric language. Just finished with my Hungarian homeworks before leaving to school..

And soup Gulyás, horrible public transport, horrible techno culture (most of the Hungarian youngsters and adults are dumm disco faces ), and extreme racism

That's awasome man!That's why Finland is Western Europe and us,well I don't say anything.You guys can learn any language you want,and bet your ass the teacher's native tounge is the one you studying.I talked to a guy a couple days ago,who went to an english elementery school.In a small town,just north of Helsinki!He had a whole bunch of teachers from Canada,The United States,England etc.The thing is you don't even have to be a millionare to attend to that kind of school in Finland.But here! Many english teachers never even been to any english speaking country.Somehow in Finland the language education is just phenomenal.Well it was a bit off topic.

So I share my thoughts with you about Finnland. Had been occupied by Sweden 800 and Russia for hundred years,fought for and gained independence in 1917,Became a pure nation by getting rid of the,bad blood,the commie traitors (hail general Mannerheim),stood up and fought against the world largest,evilest empire,even they were outnumbered by the agressor,which probably was the most heroic act in the history of the human race,The huge Soviet Union couldn't defeat the tiny Finland,because the heroism and strenght of it's people.After WWII.Finland had to give up Karelia.Built a strong economy after 1945,without selling out their country.Everything they achived,they achived on their own.

Run Lola Run!
By the way, expensive housing exists only in some provinces, Newfoundland is dirt cheap for EVERYTHING. Its like its own third world country, trapped in the twenties. And they are the kings of drunken parties and pirate music.
What about Morocco. I love the Moroccan accent.

Well yeah but try to find a job over there.My pal worked at a Home Depot in Scarborough and asked for a transfer when they opened the St Johnes store.He was making 15$ per hour at the time he got transfered.They didn't reduce his salary,so the many he makes ,worth a lot more 'cause everything is so cheap.

Morocco... hmm.. well here in holland they don't have a very good name because most of the children and teenagers of morrocan heritage just can't behave.. they are vandals .. now I'm not saying that they ALL are like that, but I never hear anything positive about them.. but the country itself I find beautiful and special. I've seen something on tv once about some guy who travelled al over the world and so also to morocco the people were also very nice there they offer you all kinds of things and the landscape is pretty although often very very dry.
now.. how do ye people think about.. uh.. Norway?
