Finland
Finland is a large, modern country in Northern Europe. The spoken language is completely different from it's other Scandinavian neighbours with only Estonian and Hungarian being similar. There are very few cities, lots of trees and lakes and empty space. Helsinki is the official capital, but in winter Rovaniemi in the North is far more important for most tourists - with Sami, Reindeer, Northern Lights and Santa Claus. National sports in Finland: ice hockey, cross country ski and Sauna!

Norway
Norway... From Oslo to Bergen and Hammerfest, with Fjords, Waterfalls, Mountains, Lofoten and Nordkapp. There is a lot of nature between the Southern and most Northern tip of this long stretched - but expensive - country with only 6 million people. The Great Outdoors are indeed GREAT. From walking to fishing, canoeing or camping in summer, with 24 hour daylight. Norway also has a really long winter with a lot of snow: perfect cross-country and alpine skiing conditions with the champions!
