Intrigued by this project for sure. I love your cartographer hunched and studied.
I think the Nordic are such silent hardworking backbone of the world. Dealing with the harshest weather and light and diligently creating the world without complaint. Anyway, I suppose that's the way I see it.
I find them hardworking and admirable too :) I am an artist of course so I don't count, but I have of late made it a habit to tell people. I was at the hospital again a month ago and when they let me go I went out and then I went back again and found a nurse just to tell her to thank everybody for their special combination of loving care and professionalism making sure that even the not too charming and the outright difficult was treated with respect and friendliness. I was really touched by what I saw there.
I will also write my youngest daughter's music teacher as he is just doing a great job introducing them to opera and all.
