✅ Think you know about Finland? Think again! In this video, we’re debunking 6 of the most common myths about life in Finland! 🇫🇮

Whether you’re planning to study, work, or travel in Finland, or you're just curious about Nordic life, you might be surprised by how many foreigners get wrong about Finland.

💡 Is Finland cold year-round? Finnish winters are long and snowy, but did you know that summer temperatures can reach over 30°C in the south? Finland experiences all four seasons, and summers are surprisingly warm and full of festivals.

💡 Is Finland part of Scandinavia? Many people think so, but the truth is Finland is a Nordic country, not Scandinavian! Unlike Swedish and Norwegian, the Finnish language belongs to a completely different language family.

💡 Does everyone in Finland have blonde hair and blue eyes? Finland is a diverse country, and while you’ll see many fair-haired people, there are plenty of Finns with darker features too. The stereotype is more common in Sweden than in Finland.

💡 Does every Finn enjoy ice swimming? Sure, ice swimming is a famous Finnish tradition, but not everyone loves diving into freezing water. That said, most Finns have tried it at least once, especially after a sauna session.

💡 Are Finnish people emotionless? Finland has a reputation for being reserved, but that doesn’t mean Finns don’t feel deeply. Once you get to know them, you’ll find Finns to be loyal, warm, and genuine friends who are not afraid to express their feelings.

💡 Does everyone in Finland speak perfect English? While many Finns, especially in cities like Helsinki, Tampere, and Turku, speak excellent English, it’s not universal. Older generations and people in rural areas may not be fluent, so learning a few Finnish phrases can go a long way.
