First thing what comes to my mind when thinking of my home country Finland is nature and peacefulness. We have such a amazing nature where you can go and set your mind at ease. In the summer time you can hike in a forest and in the winter time you can go skiing. I think that nature is a source of energy to as Finns so it’s a big part of finnishness.
Coffee culture in Finland. I feel like that coffee is quite big thing in Finland and huge part of finnishness. I think we as a country drink the most coffee in the whole world, according to statistics. In every workplace there’s a coffee machine and we have official coffee breaks during the workday.
Time management. Finnish people are quite tight with time. It is considered rude if you come on last minute or later what had been agreed on. So people are usually at least couple minutes early before the agreed time. So i consider that part of finnishness.
