has someone said...chocolate!

In Finland we have this traditional Easter chocolate called "Mignon". It is a chocolate which is filled in a real egg shell!

It is a chocolate-lover's dream! Can you imagine eating all of it at once? Do you think you could do it?

You can watch this video to see what it looks like.

easter traditions in finland

In today's Instagram live session with my dearest Ana Belén, we have talked about Semana Santa and Easter traditions.

In Spain, Semana Santa (the Holy Week) and the Eastern celebrations are much more traditional and religious than in Finland. In Finland we still have very typical pagan celebrations such as "little witches". But, do not be scared of them! These little witches are actually little kids, who get dressed in colourful clothes and overhead scarves and they go from door to door to sing and collect candies!

Here is a wonderful website where you can read about Easter in Finland:

"Wanna" sound like a native speaker?

Hi everyone! Here is an interesting video about how to sound more "natural" and "native-like" while speaking English. This video is clearly for those who are interested in more "British" rather than "American" pronunciation, but a useful one, nonetheless :) Hope you will enjoy it!
