Finland is quirky. The country hosts a wife-carrying race, they drink more coffee than anyone else, and they celebrate a day of failure. Quirkiness aside, Finland is the happiest country in the world.
It’s also one of the most northern-reaching countries in the world and a prime place to watch the Northern Lights. Don’t worry about visiting during the winter; there are about 2 million saunas in Finland to keep you warm.
