It was -40C/F without windchill. Fortunately, both times (one week each!) there was little to no wind.

Favorite parts of the trips:
  • Watching the locals go outside for a cigarette. Without bothering to put their jackets on.
  • Saunas (most of them, anyway) in the executive conference rooms at Nokia.

Least favorite part of the trips:
  • One particular sauna event. Let's just leave it at "300 pound naked drunken Finn who thought he could dance" and leave it at that.
