Then Russians took area Finland from Sweden (after Great Northern War), some could say .... that area ''should have gone as well'' .... as back then it was mainly populated by ''Finns'' (and Samis ... small numbers).

I wonder can she speak maenkieli ....

[Nurzat]

can pass in Romania (Moldova region). very similar to a Csángó girl I knew

Im pretty sure she has sami ancestry based on her name and looks.

Malin Buska:

''Isoäitini on suomalainen, isoisällä on myös suomalaista taustaa. Kasvoin lähellä rajaa ja puhuimme meänkieltä. Perheeni asuu edelleen pohjoisessa. Kestää noin kolme minuuttia kävellä rajan yli Suomeen. Olen ruotsalainen ja tunnen itseni ruotsalaiseksi, mutta minulla on erittäin vahva yhteys Suomeen.''

Translation:

''My grandmother is Finnish, my grandfather also owns some Finnish backgrounds. I grew up closely Finland's border and we talked Mäeankieli. My family still lives in North. It takes about 3 min to walk Finland's side. I'm Swedish and feel myself Swedish, but I have strong connection to Finland.''


Now then ... familyname Buska sounds nothing like Scandinavian, Finnish (or even Samis). More like slavic (Russian) to me.

What comes to possible Sami blood ... she is 1,76cm tall woman! Yes, she might have that, but if so ... how much.
