Well, let's see... I have met way over 30 of Finnish AH players, 2 Brits, 2 Germans and 2 Danes so far during these 10+ years. About a dozen have visited my house, and my wife has met an additional half a dozen during our family holiday trips. So far they all have been very nice people, some of them have become close family friends. Adding to that, that only a handful of current and retired AH'ers live here, the next closest ones 250 km's away from here, then 400 and 500 km's. Considering our non-existing cross country flight routes and lowered wintertime speed limits (80 km/h) on the roads, going to meet them is not a moment's idea.
Anyone visiting North Carelia in Finland is welcome to contact me, at least for a cup of coffee or a glass of beer.
And we Finns have a reputation of being unsocial and withdrawn people...
