Finland
Finland is defined by its lakes — some 188,000 of them — and by forests that stretch unbroken across most of the country. Winter brings months of snow and, in the far north, polar darkness punctuated by the aurora borealis; summer reverses that into weeks of pale, almost sleepless light. The rhythm of life here is quiet and close to nature.
About Finland
Overview
Finland sits in northern Europe, bordered by Sweden to the west, Norway to the north, and Russia to the east, with a long Baltic coastline to the south and west. Helsinki is the capital and largest city. Finnish and Swedish are both official languages; the euro is the currency. Finnish culture places high value on self-reliance, honesty, and time spent outdoors — a disposition the Finns call *sisu*.
