A quick response for you re Finland. I forgot my friend had his heart broken by his Finnish girlfriend while travelling. Bear that in mind when reading his advice:

Re Finland. Just don't bother going at all would be my advice! However, if the urge takes you, I went to Mikkeli, Jyvaskyla and Helsinki. All save Helsinki are pretty unremarkable. Most finnish towns seem to be made from blasting a huge hole in the forest and building three story buildings on the blast site. Its all very green and healthy and nordic. But a bit boring too.
The best advise is find somebody who has a summer house on a lake (of which Finland has more than 50000), have a sauna, go skinny dipping in the lake,
sit butt naked on the veranda drinking beer and waving at people on boats on the lake - repeat several times then back inside to cook sausages on an open fire. What could be better!!???!

I will try to get some more sensible information from him.
