In October, Embassy of #Finland launched the #DiplomaticSaunaSociety in New Delhi with four networking events at the Embassy sauna. Attendees experienced a truly Finnish evening with food, drinks and 80 degrees of Finnish sauna, thereby becoming members of the society. 🇫🇮

In 2020, Finnish #sauna culture was added to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage list. UNESCO recognised sauna as an important part of #Finland’s living cultural tradition. Many Finnish diplomatic missions also have a sauna. The picture is from the Embassy sauna in New Delhi.

A remote island, a life shaped by the sea, and a woman forced to find her strength when war tears her family apart. “Stormskerry Maja” (Finland) is a sweeping, deeply human portrait of love, resilience, and a woman finding her place in a changing world.
