HOW TO CONNECT WITH THE FINNS

Understand Finnish mindset and build relationships with confidence

I have a question for you. How can you go from feeling unsure to feeling confident in understanding the Finnish mindset?


If you guessed that, you would need to:

  • Be in Finland and learn by trial and error… you’d be wrong.
  • Have Finnish family members, so you can ask them… no worries, it’s not a requirement.
  • Spend countless hours scouring the internet about Finnish people and piece together the information you find - then, good news, you’re wrong.
You see, while there are many free resources about Finnish people, their communication style, and Finnish customs, it’s like falling into a rabbit hole.

You’ll find things like:

  • Finns only talk when we have something to say.
  • It’s difficult to make friends in Finland.
  • Finns value honesty above everything.

The information is scattered and gives no context, so it's hard to understand what you really should do to succeed in building relationships with Finns.

But I’m here to tell you that it’s not your fault. Those resources are not meant for people like you, searching for more than just the tourist experience.

What you need is a proven framework that gives you the tools to build relationships with Finns and the insights to understand the Finnish mindset even better.

Introducing...

What my students say...


"I’ve been interested in Finland ever since watching a Finnish series on Netflix.

The lessons are interesting and clear. Varpu didn’t only present the good in her culture – she was honest and shared both the positives and the negatives.

I’ve never been to Finland and visiting the country appeared in my mind as a far-away dream. Now, thanks to Varpu’s course, that vague dream is growing and solidifying. I can imagine myself there.

And, most of all, I feel much better prepared to meet and get to know Finns. Thank you, Varpu!"

- Gwen


"I never imagined that I could learn about the Finnish communication style like this! Bravo!"

- Tabia


"It was a pleasure taking this course! I already knew a thing or two from my long-term Finnish partner and my 2 short lovely trips to Finland, but I learned quite a few new and important things.

I really enjoyed watching your video feedback on my workbook! Love your personal and helpful approach. So much value! (You should price the course higher! :) Thanks for everything again, Varpu. I feel much more equipped for our planned Finland relocation."

- Emil

Course Curriculum




What my students say...

"I’m a first generation Canadian with Finnish parents. As a Finnish-Canadian, I still have strong Finnish roots and links to my heritage.

That said, I enrolled in this course thinking it would be interesting to hear what you had to share. Well, it’s been more than that.

Your course was placed in my path to help me to better understand my family of origin. Why they behave this way or that way. Some of it I knew were the “Finnish ways” but other things were eye opening. It’s helping me to gain perspective and truly help me in my life and healing journey.

Thank you for creating this interesting and helpful course."

- Lisa

"I’ve spent many, many hours in classrooms and online helping people to learn. When I comment in a positive way about this course, the remarks are both from a student and from someone who has done a lot of teaching.

Personally, the most surprising thing about the course is – don’t laugh – how “Finnish” I am without being born there or even raised in a Finnish home. I did not know my Finnish grandparents and knew my 100% Finnish father for a short time before he and my mother were divorced and I never saw him again after I was about 7 years old. So much of what is in the course about Finns describes me.

The most helpful part of the course is without a doubt the workbook. Adult learners need lessons that are direct and can be used easily and importantly.

The workbook helped me do that. When I write things, I learn them more effectively. I need time to think about what I learned and to see how it fits into my life. This happened all the way through the course. Thank you for your work!"

Because my hubby and I are both expats, we weren't sure if we should feel offended during our awkward encounters with our Finnish neighbors.

Thanks to your course and your personal workbook review (Kiitos!), I feel so much more confident.

Everything makes so much more sense now!"
