About us
Tinet - after many years of studying among other things the Russian language and the cultural history of Russia, the Soviet Union and the Middle East, she has moved to one of the many cities of her dreams (Berlin, Germany) and works as a gun for hire for various publishing companies with typesetting, graphic design, translating and writing, besides drawing comics about funny Russians. She dreams of making big fat richly illustrated coffee table books about the images of Central Asian, Caucasian or Russian men from a cultural historic angle.
Ainur - Ph.D. of History at the University of Lund, Sweden, who in her research has focused on nationalism, identity and stereotypes, mainly in the context of Finnish views on Swedes. She also draws historically correct comics about the Jazz age in the 1920's, which also deal with nationalism, identity and stereotypes, in a quite entertaining way.
Tinet and Ainur are sisters, and their ethnic background is as follows: 62.5% Finnish, 25% Mishär Tatar, 12.5% Kale (Finnish Roma).

What a "Chiraylik" blog this is!
Very luckily I came to this blog when I was searching informations about Tatars in Finland.
I am an Uyghur student, working for my PhD degree in Linguistics at the University of Helsinki.
Having seen your blog, I introduced the Tatars in Finland to Uyghurs in my blog, and I used a photo without your permission yet. Please let me know if you don't want me to do so.
you can leave a message in my blog.
