One word...I love that you're coming to Finland! One word of advice (if you haven't figured it out already) Google Translate DOES NOT work! It will translate some random words, but if you're looking for English to Finnish translation, it will 90% of the time be wrong. Not sure if that's where you got the orange juice translation... but orange juice is "appelsiini"! Ugh, such a frustrating language.... I swear I spend hours at a time in the grocery store trying to guess what things are! And I still haven't even opened my Finnish book... :/Callahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10983929993095153060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7753693868431229580.post-77706767981808396172011-06-03T01:32:38.842-05:002011-06-03T01:32:38.842-05:00How on earth have you ended up living in three dif...How on earth have you ended up living in three different countries?Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03795110735508140466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7753693868431229580.post-30547581758499412542011-06-02T23:00:13.172-05:002011-06-02T23:00:13.172-05:00i don't really like appelsiinimehua
