Finnish Travel

Finland is bigger and emptier than most visitors expect, which is rather the appeal. You can stand in the middle of Helsinki and be in real forest within twenty minutes, or fly north into a place where the sun forgets to set for weeks at a time.

This is the part of the blog about seeing Finland for yourself. Helsinki and its islands, Lapland and its reindeer, the lakes, the small towns and the long quiet spaces in between. Come for a stopover, stay for a fortnight, and either way pack a warm hat. The weather here keeps its own counsel.
