“Sisu” is a word that Finnish people use to describe the national character. It roughly translates to “guts,” but it’s honestly not as much about bravery as it is about determination, especially in the face of odds that can seem impossible. Fending off an invasion of a country 30 times your size in a subarctic winter: Sisu. Rising from your origins as a pulp-and-paper country to become a hub for tech innovation: Sisu. My quest to finally make a perfect lattice pie: Maybe also sisu.
