My relationship with Finnish culture

Nguyen Hong Hanh

Why I came to Finland

Cuz I felt like this. That’s

why.

My expectations

• Finland is very quiet and clean• Not many people on the street• Finns are not talkative but very nice and

helpful• Finns don’t do small talks • Silence is normal in a conservation• Finns speak English very well

My phases (not really culture shock, actually it’s temperature shock)
