Finland, Minun Suomi

My gallivanting sister's in Finland right now, attending a language-and-culture institute. (The final exam on using the sauna is going to be a killer, I bet.) Also there, taking some art classes, is the president of Finland, Tarja Halonen. Apart from the coolness of walking past a fairly important world leader on your way from the sauna, how cool is it that she takes art classes over the summer? With only two bodyguards in tow! Come to think of it, Finland must be pretty easy to run if she can take art classes over the summer... (Please save the deprecating comparisons to the American philistine-in-chief for the comments.)
