Arrival in Hanasaari Hanaholmen today - The Swedish Finnish Cultural Centre. What an appropriate first stop in Finland after two weeks spent in Sweden. Hanasaari's mission is to promote cooperation between Finland and Sweden in culture, society and business. The Centre here provides for hotel and conference facilities in a serene seaside setting. The atmosphere certainly promotes reflection and study.
I had the opportunity to have dinner with Gunvor Kronman, the Director of Hanasaari and her husband Henrik. Gunvor is also an Eisenhower Fellow who traveled to the USA in 2007. It was wonderful to be hosted by a previous fellow and enjoyed the leadership dialog.
