This is where i now live, LAHTI, Suomi. Probably the nicest town i've seen yet in Finland. But i like busy places which must have an Irish pub!! :-))
I spent 2 months living in Kuhmo and that is also a beautiful place. A picturesque town with wonderful lakes, and good hunting!!
But I prefer the bright lights of Lahti. Moved there 17th November and now working in Hollola just outside Lahti.
So far i've seen Oulu, Kajanni, Kuopio, Kuhmo, Vasa, Sotkamo, Kouvola, Nurmes and now Lathi, and many other places I cant spell or pronounce! Anywhere else worth a look???
As for the Finnish people!!!! A very quiet reserved people and not very open. But when you get to know them, or rather they get to know you, they are down to earth, good fun, and very good friends. They are quite similar to Irish people in many respects.
They are fanatical about sports, and I HATE MIKA HAKKINEN, sorry! They actually seem to love all sports, especially winter sports and motor sports etc.
A good bunch all round!
