Ksenia

My name is Ksenia, I’m 33 years old and I’m one of the authors of the travel guide to Finland. I write for those who want to understand the country deeper than just “where to go for a weekend”. It’s important to me not only to show the route, but also to convey its mood: what Helsinki sounds like in the morning, how the forest smells after rain, why the silence in Lapland feels almost physical, and what makes everyday Finnish life so calm and orderly.

I collect practical information that takes the stress out of planning: routes by region, seasonal tips, sample budgets, transport and parking, weather nuances, daylight hours and booking advice. In every article you’ll find small signposts: where to turn off the main road, when it’s better to take a break, what to pack in your backpack if the day starts with sunshine and ends with wet snow.

I write with respect for the country, but first and foremost with care for the reader. A good itinerary should bring you experiences, not just exhaustion.

In my articles you’ll find routes by season and region, city walks and nature trails, cultural context, everyday tips — and most importantly, clarity. If you’ve ever wondered “What if I go in January?”, “How do I avoid overpaying for accommodation in summer?”, “Is it really worth going to a tiny village for just one view?” — I’ve asked myself the same questions. And now I share the answers so that your trip to Finland becomes not a chaotic set of pins on the map, but a well-thought-out journey where every detail works for your experience.
