101 Very Finnish Problems provides you with priceless insights into the everyday trials and tribulations of life in super Suomi. After reading this book, you'll be far better equipped to deal with all that Finland can throw at you, from sauna spankings to drunken Santas. You will understand very Finnish problems like these:

> When you have to explain for the 100th time that Moomin isn't a hippo.
> When everybody else's name is like something from The Lord of the Rings.
> When the weather forecast for Midsummer matches that for Christmas.
> When there's over 60 words for “snow”, but not one for “please”.
> When alcohol is a universal permission to go totally insane.
> When you realize you're only one country away from North Korea.
> When you forget that summer cottage is another word for labour camp.
> When you have to share the sauna with a masochist.
> When people don't get your sarcasm.

"101 Very Finnish Problems is a fantastically funny book. I guarded it with my life - but then I did read it on my smartphone. My 102nd very Finnish problem was that it ended too soon." - André Wickström, comedian

101 Very Finnish Problems: The Foreigner's Guide to Surviving in Finland

How to survive life in Finland in even finer style

More Very Finnish Problems is a brand-new selection of essential insights into the highs and lows of fantastic Finland. Following on from the wildly successful 101 Very Finnish Problems, Joel Willans's hilarious new guide will help you live and love Finnish life to the max... even at minus 25 degrees. With this book at hand, you'll be able to swat aside everyday Finnish challenges as easily as if they were lazy mosquitos drunk on vodka-laced blood.

You'll learn how to cope with problems like these:

When your Midsummer fire is smaller than your neighbours
When your children are better skiers than you
When you only visit Estonia for booze
When you get stuck in a reindeer traffic jam
When it's so dark you don't know if you've overslept or underslept
When May Day is too cold and when it's too hot
When you drink alone at home in your underwear
When you're stuck at the summer cottage in the rain
When winter goes on and on and on and on and on and on
When people complain the sauna's too hot when it's not
When New Year's Eve is like an explosion at a fireworks factory
