my Viking blood, my Svea tribe

I am a Finn, and proud of it, but my genes and language spring from the ancient tribe knows as svear, that is, the Swedes.

I am proud of that too. I blame my Viking blood for my longing for adventure, my eyes that always seek out the horizon, the taste of salt on my tongue, my passionate and restless heart, my undaunted belief in the strength of women, my delight in a good party with wild friends.

Freeze the arrow in the air
Make your mark and leave it hanging there ( - Rasmussen: "Higher Ground")
