    In Finnish lapland we have mosquitoes so big that my friend takes them and dries them to make sauna stools.

      God you are lucky in lapland. I have always wanted to do that, but the ones here in northern ostrobothnia dont fit trough the doors so we can use them only as patio furniture.

        Sailors round these parts use the massive ancient mosquitos to navigate the ocean since they dont move in the sky

        Tell me you’re from the ostrobothnia without telling me you’re from the ostrobothnia.
