Midsummer in Finland
Midsummer Haiku: Bonfire rises Wildflowers crown pretty heads Daylight never ends ~~~ Midsummer I am spending Midsummer (called Juhannus, in Finnish) in Finland because Finland is the place to be in the summer. For someone who doesn’t tolerate heat weaves or anything above +20 celsius it makes sense. Forests and lakes and free wild berries and the Midnight Sun is pretty much all you really need to enjoy the summer.

Memories Of A Flag: The Power Of Symbology
I have been attracted to symbology for as long as I can remember. I pored over World War II books and built model airplanes; Supermarine Spitfires, Gloster Gladiators, and Hawker Tempests were my favourites. I fixated on the decals as I delicately added them to the finished products. The red, white, and blue concentric circles of the Royal Air Force, seemingly emulating a bullseye, interested me almost as much as the aircraft did.

🧱 Walls That Touch the Sky: Exploring China’s Ancient Marvel
There’s something humbling about standing before a wall that stretches beyond the horizon. A wall so massive, it snakes over mountains, weaves through deserts, and clings to cliffs with the persistence of a legend that refuses to die. That wall is none other than the Great Wall of China, often called the longest man-made structure in the world. But beyond its physical grandeur lies a story—one that echoes resilience, sacrifice, and the powerful will of a civilization determined to defend itself and define its identity.
