Last week, we spent inspiring days at Matkamessut in Helsinki, surrounded by travel dreams, curious questions and genuine conversations. 🌍✨
There’s something special about meeting people face to face. Taking a moment to talk, answer questions and share what everyday life feels like in a place where you can experience two countries at once, cross the border without even thinking about it, and find Arctic calm right next to city life. 🇫🇮🇸🇪
The atmosphere was warm and full of interest. We were also there together with our Visit Arctic Coast value network, sharing stories of the Arctic coast and the places that make this region so special.
✨ Curious to experience it yourself?

What does a relaxed stay really feel like? 🌊
It’s the kind of place where the river is always nearby, days move at a natural pace, and crossing borders feels effortless.
A calm base for travelers who enjoy quiet surroundings, local life and the freedom to explore the Twin City in their own rhythm. ✨
