Finnishness

The first thing that comes to my mind when I think about Finnishness is security and how many Finns live in a bubble. Finland is a very safe country, and you can rely on the authorities, which creates a bubble very easily. The same thing does not happen everywhere in the world.

Growing up in Finland, I have always had a lot of trust in my safety and stability in life. Which is, of course, very nice, but to realize this, I have needed to travel quite a lot and see how things are on the other side of the world.

In Finland, you can easily trust that if you just work hard enough, you can achieve all your dreams. You want to become a lawyer? You have the possibility of getting a free education and becoming one. But elsewhere, it can be very different. In many places, you need money and power to achieve your dreams. Without those, it can be impossible, and that is very harsh to see.
