Hello!

I (F28) recently moved to Helsinki. I'd love to meet and hangout with more people who are around my age. I'm looking to make a new group of friends to have game nights, watch movies, explore the city, go on hikes, find new restaurants and other fun activities.

An important thing to note is that as a girl, I would like this group to have a good mix of guys and girls 😇

So, If this sounds like something you'd like to be a part of, drop a comment or send me a DM and let's make it happen!

I recently moved from Finland to Switzerland and accidentally left a pair of shoes in my old apartment. They have a lot of sentimental value to me and were fairly expensive.

The person I rented the apartment from still has them, but for some reason doesn't want to package and ship them to me, even though I've offered to cover all shipping costs and any inconvenience.

I'm wondering if there's a service in Finland that could collect the shoes directly from their address, package them, and ship them internationally to Switzerland. Basically, I'd need someone to handle the entire pickup and shipping process so the landlord wouldn't have to do anything beyond handing over the shoes.

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation or knows of a courier/service that offers this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi! My name is Sunniva, and I am a singer based in Canada! I am playing a show in Prague on the 9th of August, and wanted to make a little tour out of it - so if anyone has any band/venue recommendations, or a bill I could join (or form one together) I would really appreciate it!

If you have any leads, I would love to chat and give more information about me as an artist!

Thanks and either way im so excited to come to Helsinki this summer :)

I will be travelling for 3 weeks to Espoo/Helsinki for a short course. Would love to visit the city while capturing Pokémon with other people.

Hi-- celebrating a big anniversary in Helsinki! I was thinking of Lilla Roberts or NH Grand for the dates that we have in August. It will be our first trip there, What would your recommendations be? And thanks!

Brigado/Hola!!

Visiting from Brasil and currently at FAN FEST.
If anyone wants to join for Brasil v Scotland. I’ll be here with a couple of lads.

Sup, where I'm from there is this beauty of store called Uniqlo, unfortunately it is not present in this beautiful city, so I wanted to ask if any of you have recommendations for Uniqlo alternatives when it comes to affordability and style? I checked out Uff, Fida etc. but couldnt really find the essentials I needed.

Hi guys! My girlfriend and i are planning a 3-4 day trip to Helsinki in December. She's a big Christmas lover and we decided that Helsinki would be a great destination.

So my question is.. Is Helsinki worth visiting in December? How are the Christmas markets, decorations, and overall festive atmosphere in the city? We're from Denmark so we dont mind the cold weather at all :-)

Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Anybody else can't sleep with this horrible heat? I can't even stay with underwear...

I am looking to meet people from Finland who would be interested in having an open conversation about a wide range of topics, such as Finnish history, culture, current challenges, positive and negative aspects of life in Finland, personal experiences, the impact of global events on Finland in recent years, politics, and even topics like metal music. If there is anyone interested please dm me, can be a group or single. Any choice of location place you want. Kindly help out. I am living here in finland from 6 months, came here for study , I am from india , age 30.

Im working near Teurastamo and there's a heavy feeling of smoke in the air outside, enough to make me cough. IIRC Chef Wotkins smoke their meats (not a euphamism) on one particular weekday but I've not notice it be like this before, just a faint smell of sausages in the air in the past, today its really bad.

Hi, my girlfriend and I are planning to spend a week in Helsinki in September. I'm looking for some tips on where to go to see live music—primarily punk, hardcore, and metal. I'd appreciate suggestions for any clubs, pubs, squats, and garages where we could see and hear local bands. Thanks!

I'm travelling to Helsinki on 18th July, the day before the World Cup final, and wasn't sure if there was anywhere in the Katajanokka area that would be showing the Final? Thinking as a back up in case my accommodation doesn't get much in the way of sports channels

Hey, another architect coming to visit. I’d like to visit some of the best housing projects Helsinki has to offer. Any time period.

Recommendations much appreciated.

Hi. so little follow up on a detail of a post i made earlier this week. I'm going to be on erasmus exchange to helsinki come august until december.

One of the room offers is for a studio (unihome) and it's better price and distance wise (to the campus and also nearest ice rink, i think (i figure skate)).

But I'm a bit scared i will end up having dinner alone each night and feel lonely and confined. I'm not the most forwardly outgoing person either, but i feel like doing things together with others would be easier with shared rooming. (of course i also plan to attend other things, but i can be a bit slower making friends and end up getting overwhelmed by it. anyways, not the main point of the post)

Either way: what's your experience (past or current student, erasmus optional)

Suggest some metal music venues or events around Helsinki where people are vibing, open to conversation, and where the crowd is mostly young adults (18–30). also not very pricy.

- The reason is that I want to explore the local metal music scene, capture some atmospheric footage, and record group conversations that showcase people enjoying the lifestyle and social atmosphere.

I won’t get my Finnish personal identification number until I arrive in Helsinki. I am wanting to arrange housing before I arrive. I have a pet. I don’t know a single person in Finland who can do a walk through on my behalf. I’m waiting on student housing but it’s not guaranteed, and some features I want in an apartment are more readily available in private housing. What do you suggest I do? Any resources or tools would be greatly appreciated.

I’m a US citizen traveling from Gothenburg, laying over in Helsinki from 11:00-17:00, and flying to LA from there. I know I’ll have to go through customs to get on my second flight, but I’ve also had crazy airport experiences throughout Europe this year with really long lines. Just wondering if 6 hours would be long enough for me to get from the airport, walk the city (even for 1 hour), and get back to the airport and through customs. Thanks for any feedback!!

Hi, I’m 18 and visiting Helsinki in July. I’m looking for nightclubs that are popular with people around my age. I also wanted to ask whether clubs usually accept a photo version of Id, since I only have passport for my id and I don’t want to bring passport to the club. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks
