Written by: Durodoluwa Femi-Ajala Duro Takes Over Finland Living in Sweden for some years now, I have always lingered on Finland as a place to visit, somewhere in the back of my mind. It was close enough to visit, yet somehow always postponed. Well, until last week. What finally pushed me to make the trip was simple and personal. Family.
