Olen kotoisin Suomesta. I'm from Finland.

I've always wondered why are Finland, Sweden and Russia called so weird in Finnish.

In Finnish, Finland is Suomi, Sweden is Ruotsi and Russia is Venäjä. Dafuq? :D

Is it a status symbol to live in an area where there is 24-hour light\darkness in summer\winter? Do people who live above the Arctic Circle look down on those who don't?

Not at all. We don't think about it so much, most people (atleast in Norway) live below the arctic circle.

I'd love to go to Norway! Absolutely stunning nature! I'd love to get away from the packed with people country I live in now. It would be awesome the go camping out in the wild, see how long I can survive on my own. :) Aaah *daydreams about travelling to faraway places and discovering beauty*

Good choice, Norway is really really beautiful. I´ve been there many times on skiing trips in the winters, but I haven´t been there in the summertime, which I really want to!!

I´m from Denmark.. hello ..
This country appears to be pretty well functioning on the outside. But if you dig deeper, it´s far from perfect.. lots of lonely lives and meaningless materialism.

People has good mannerism and understanding (at least the danish people I know). but where I come from they will label you as socially awkward and get over with it. so I prefer to be lonely in Denmark rather than my own country. Maybe I'm overexaggreting things but still...

Yeah I know what you mean, and it is true, in general there is a lot of understanding for people´s personal issues and situations.
My boyfriend is from Greece, and since I´ve spend long periods of time there, I´ve noticed that anxiety and depression is something like a tabu, and people don´t discuss it openly.
