Hidden Finland x Teppo Haapoja

Hi, I’m Teppo Haapoja — a photographer, filmmaker, and content creator from Finland. I’ve spent the past decade telling stories through visuals and helping others do the same, whether it’s through YouTube, social media, or behind the camera.

But when I’m not creating content, you’ll most likely find me staying in a cozy cabin, jumping into a cold lake after a sauna, chasing good food, or hiking through Finland’s endless forests. I’m passionate about slow travel, unique stays, and discovering the hidden gems that make this country so special.

This guide is a collection of my favorite places and experiences across Finland — the ones I keep going back to and always recommend to friends. I hope it helps you experience Finland in a more local, soulful, and memorable way.
