In Finland it is just too cold... In winter, the temperate is usually lower than -15 Celsius or so and it is too cold for me
But on the other hand, our nature is very beautiful and I love how the sun never goes down in the summertime. But you can't get everything so I guess I should not complain.

London and the south east is cool yer, but the rest of the country is crap.

Also you seem to be confusing here and there. You might want to brush up on that, as we have a language test for foreigners wanting to come here;)

Yeah, my English is not that much strong, but hey, I'm still at school... So I hope it will develop and well, the only way to learn something is to do it and that is what I'm doing right now.

Actually your English is quite good considering you're school age, but 'here' and 'there' are actually very easy to master.

Go to London. I guarantee you'll either be mugged or not appreciated.

Catch the train to London stopping off at rejection, disappointment, Backstabbing Central and Shattered Dreams Parkway.

Yeah, but here and there are pretty difficult for us Finns cos in Finnish language we don't have anything like the word 'there', we don't need to say 'there is a book on the table' we just say 'a book is on the table' or so, if you get it. So I admit I may forget it sometimes but maybe I would remember to use it if I paid more attention for it.

Well in Antarctica it is sunny 24 hours in summer and darkness 24 hours in winter.

Some languages in Europe actually don't have words like that. Like in Serbian, there are no articles, so when I was learning English at school it was hard for me to remember where to put words like "the", "that", "this" for example. It was also hard to understand at first that English does not apply genders or neutral genders to the nouns (French and Spanish do this, if you know some French or Spanish you will know what I mean). That was weird.
