Quiet, keep to themselves, respect your private sphere
-Most of the student are very open, smiling and speak about themselves.
-Only the older adults who don't speak english have some difficulties to speak with us and are sometimes very cold.
-They need their personal space and some moments of calm.
I would say a lot of finnish people is shy, however I have met quite a few other that are actually totally opposite to shy
Nope, this one was right, personal space is a thing :)
Finnish people are quiet and like personal space
still mostly shy
Fins are very friendly and help you if they can.
They are not shy anymore after alcohol.
They are very nice people, even more friendly than I thought, even if they say they are not very sociable.
yes, they are quiet and in puplic they behavior of averaged fins is compared to my point of view a little bit rude.
It's even worse: They don't sit next to you in the bus and when one person is standing in the shelter of a bus stop it's full, no matter what the weather is like.
no change
They speak more and they are happier than I thought.
same as I thought.
While Finns generally don't speak to you or make eye contact in public, it is just a part of the culture and doesn't mean they are cold or unfriendly.
If Finns are silent during the conversation , it is normal
They are very patriotic people
Nowadays, people are not that reserved anymore. Majority of them does not find it frustrating to sit next to another person in public transport, if other seats are occupied already.
They like to drink alcohols and when they drink it, they is not shy.
Finnish people are silent, but always friendly.
In bar or sauna, they are friendly.
Very polite
Distant as a way of respect each other
apparently Finns are very introvert only during the winter times but during the warmer seasons they tend to be more open en social
