Looking for Finnish Expats in Germany?

Why Finnish expats move abroad (& how they like it)

Every year, we publish one of the biggest global surveys among expats — asking them about various aspects of their life, from work to leisure. Learn what motivated our Finnish members to move abroad, what keeps them there, and what they struggle with or miss about home.

Tips and Advice on Germany from Your Fellow Finnish Expats

Obviously, expat life in Germany goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Finns is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the German mentality and way of life. Finns in Germany are a part of our community, calling cities such as Hamburg, Munich, Berlin, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Finns in Berlin, for example.
