just found out my family cones from Finland

Post by hockeylovinFin » Thu Oct 16, 2014 8:20 am

Long story short both my parents were adopted and I just found out that on my birth grandmothers side that I am Finnish. I am from America and grew up loving hockey but other than the famous NHL stars that I have grew up with I know nothing of Finland. Would anyone be willing to be pen pals and help me with Finnish culture?

That's cool. Lots of Americans have Finnish in them, even Vanessa Williams has 13% of Finn in her and when you look at her, IMO she definately has some Finnish elements in her.

I have been NHL fan since late 80's. Mostly following Finns there and enforcers in the 90's.

I can try to reply your questions here and hopefully others too.
