My overall experience made me want to come back again as I didn’t spend enough time in Helsinki. It is a very expensive city which is something that you should keep in mind. but overall the atmosphere was very nice, I did feel safe during the day although not so much during the night.

I absolutely loved living and working in Tampere. Kind people. Lovely sights. Beautiful forests. Loved experiencing snow the first time. If you love nature, you will love this city for sure Got to see the Moomin museum. Got to go to visit Vapriiki museum. Lots to see and experience.

Very safe, especially for women. Fun in wintertime, best at -20°. Snowshoeing, cross country and downhill skiing, winter hikes, reindeer on the roads, dog sledging, snow scooter and fat biking, sauna - a ton to do. Local food, especially reindeer, is tasty. Easy to get around even with public transport, KTT airport not far. Prices went up a bit since Corona.
Posted: July 13, 2025Experienced: December, 2024Finland is very safe overall. Cars and trams will stop for you to cross the streets. I've felt safe traveling alone. There are lights in the forest until 10pm (in the winter). For traveling I'd recommend using omnibus, it's cheaper than the trains. The food is not bad, just tasteless. But I'd definitely recommend trying the Fazer chocolate 😋

Spent a weekend here and felt very safe both at light and after dark. It was pretty calm and chill everywhere I went (also very clean). The public transport felt also very safe - I would really recommend it for solo trip
