I've made four strips in co-operation with Yleisradio. These strips show how Matti spends his independence day, embracing the traditions.
You can see the Finnish versions of the strips at http://linnanjuhlat.yle.fi/
Happy Independence day! Hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää!

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant! Thank you for bringing a big smile on my face (also) today :) Hyvää itsenäisyyspäivää!
ReplyDeleteI love these, they perfectly summarize the independence day celebrationsin Finland! You are great in capturing the essence of Finnishness in a humorous, yet ina positive and sympathetic way. Btw are these strips posted anywhere on the Finnish Nightmares Facebook site? Didn't find them, but I think a lot of us would like to pick their favorite Matti-celebrating 6.12.-pic when wishing happy independence day to their FB-friends. :-)
