The central character, Kari Sorjonen, reminds me of "The Bridge's" Saga Noren or even Sherlock Holmes, in that he has more than a few quirky personality traits that tend to rub the people around him the wrong way. The difference here is that, rather than the usual trope of the antisocial, eccentric but brilliant detective, he has a wife and daughter so is actually able to have functioning personal relationships. I must admit that a big draw of this show is the Finnish landscape which should be given its own credit as a supporting cast member.
Another crime drama I have been binge watching is the BBC's Shetland.
Who knew that there could be so much crime on an island? I found Season 1 to be a bit of a slog. I am glad I stuck with it as I feel that the writers and actors hit their stride by Season 3 and were feeling a lot more comfortable with the characters and the storyline(s). And again, the island scenery is breathtaking.
Lastly, I repurchased The Ordinary's Natural Moisturizing Factors plus HA moisturizer which is always a good sign. I am not sure if it is because I know that it is so affordable so I am quite generous with its application or if the 30 ml in the tube just doesn't go very far but I used up my first tube in 2 weeks.
And that's it! Join me on June 1st as I kick off 30 Days of Wellness, a challenge to try to achieve a better state of wellbeing through achievable, actionable steps. I am feeling really nervous about it and am wondering if I have set myself an unrealistic goal. I think I am going to need a lot of virtual handholding!
