Travel Tips for Dos and Don’ts in Finland

1. Nienke's Tip on Porvoo
Porvoo, Southern Finland, Finland
Gather mushrooms while you are stickwalking in the hilly forrests around town. Once the snow has arrived, go to the pubs with some locals and discover Finnish madness at night

4. Talitha's Tip on Tampere
Tampere, Western Finland, Finland
If you're not into local foods but do like fastfood, this is one of the few places in Finland where I actually saw a McDonald's.

5. Julia's Tip on Kauhava
Kauhava, Western Finland, Finland
When you visit Kauhava you need to go to the restaurant Tuppiroska on an wednesdays evening. It is located in the Kauppatie 109. There you will meet a lot of students and some teachers and you can dance but also sing in the Karaoke-room. In my opinion there is the possibilty oh an accomodation also.
