There are many, many places in the United States I want to see and experience, but on my "bucket list" is to visit Finland! My paternal grandfather was born in a small village outside Helsinki, Finland; he left at the age of 13 and never returned - he lived to be in his 90's. My Dad visited several years before he passed away and was thrilled to be in the birthplace of his father. My grandfather was very special to me; I'm very proud of my Scandinavian heritage, and I'd love to experience his homeland and my "roots."
