My wife grew up in California, but since we met at age 20, 19 years ago, she's been living in Scandinavia all but one year - her senior year at the University of California (during which we lived together in California). In other words, she's almost more Scandinavian than Californian! --Olaf.dk
Oh, Olaf, I can write a lot about this topic, but if I limit myself to one sentence it goes like this. Scandinavian ladies are fantastic ladies, very independent, but everything has its price. And here the price is that French or Italian have, say, more style. Where does your wife come from?
OK, between this and the comment on your shot from Paris, I wonder what exactly is it you're thinking about Scandinavians and Scandinavian women in particular? My wife is not Scandinavian, so don't hold back! --Olaf.dk
