Actually, Finnish is related to Korean, believe it or not.  They are
both of Ural-Altaic origin.  Nothing like either Scandinavian or
Chinese.  


I liked hearing about the Norron.  A friend of mine in the Bodo/
Lofoten area let me know a little about the feeling of that wild root
in a Northern Norwegian.  And also of the local and unadmittedly mixed-in
Asiatics, the Samer or Lapps.

Add the Celtic you can find everywhere, and that's a pretty
interesting and beautiful place, besides the scenery.
