whomstve··on Mayor suggests Helsinki declare itself an English-language city
And I wish for the complete opposite.

When I go to Finland, I want to hear Finnish, read Finnish, and eat Finnish. I don't want to go to a place where kids speak, write, and think exactly like the kids from the school down the road here in North America. I don't want to travel 8000km to hear and see the same things as I have for my whole life.

There's nothing more depressing to me than a world where everything is the same and where there is no friction between anything.
