About us
Our Journey
The Finnish Express was born out of a simple idea: Finland deserves an English-language news platform that explains what’s happening clearly, fairly, and without unnecessary complexity. What started as informal conversations among expats trying to understand Finnish society, politics, and daily life slowly grew into a shared mission — to build a news outlet that connects Finland with the world. Over time, those conversations turned into articles, analysis, and reporting, and The Finnish Express became a platform dedicated to making Finnish news accessible to an international audience.
Our Team
Our strength lies in our diversity. The Finnish Express is powered by a small but passionate team made up largely of expats living in Finland, alongside at least one Finnish team member who helps ground our reporting in local perspective.
Our backgrounds span multiple countries and cultures, including India, Pakistan, Nepal Somalia, and beyond. This mix of experiences allows us to look at Finnish news through both local and global lenses, asking questions that matter to residents, newcomers, and international readers alike.
Our Mission
Our mission is to deliver accurate, balanced, and easy-to-understand news about Finland in English. We aim to bridge cultural gaps, highlight stories that often go unnoticed, and provide context to complex issues affecting life in Finland. Whether it’s national politics, social issues, migration, or everyday life, The Finnish Express exists to inform, explain, and connect — serving as a trusted source for anyone who wants to understand Finland better.
