Finnish Whisperer

You've been wondering how to:

...build friendships in a culture where small talk doesn’t exist?

...know what's polite or expected (because you cannot understand the Finnish poker face)?

or

...get ready for real-life moments - like how to behave as a guest or master the sauna etiquette?

I understand where you are coming from.

Let me tell you a quick story:

It was January 2018, when I first started sharing quick tips on spoken Finnish and Finnish culture on social media — just short, real-life nuggets to help people understand Finnish people.

As my community grew, I started hearing more and more stories — not just about language struggles, but about feeling out of place in Finnish culture.

It wasn’t about the Finnish language. It was how, when, why... and what wasn’t said at all.

Why do Finns disappear into their own world in public spaces?

How to shop without feeling lost?

How to know how formal or informal to be?

These weren’t just questions. They were silent obstacles to connection, confidence, and feeling at home.

That’s why I created The Finnish Whisperer — a hands-on guide to the real, everyday details of Finnish life that no one tells you.

Because I’ve seen it first-hand: once you understand the culture, not just the language, things start to make sense.

You stop second-guessing yourself.

You start enjoying conversations, friendships, and daily life.. just like a local.

So let me introduce you to...
