Finland is a quiet, laid back place, where a ramshackle cottage by a lake and a properly stoked sauna are all that's required for happiness. It's a vast expanse of forests and lakes punctuated by small towns. During the months of the midnight sun, coastal regions are a sailing and fishing paradise; when the nights are cold and long ( and they can be long), you can huddle inside with a vodka. Poking around the harbour side fish market in Helsinki - there's everything from Salmon and sausages to handicrafts and all manner of reindeer-related souvenirs.
