What is Finland Uncovered?

Finland Uncovered is a project that focuses on solving the problem of the lack of information available to international residents. To address this issue, I initially came up with the idea of starting a podcast series. But I felt that Podcast isn’t enough to solve this.

So I decided to test if people are interested by providing basic information with a couple of AI-generated voices. And as i expected people were interested, and the 2 of those episodes went viral internationally.

After all the backwork of 5 months, I started implementing my main objective which is providing information on many topics by engaging in conversations with experts from different industries and backgrounds. I also plan to expand my content to social media platforms, including shorts, Reels, TikTok (Key points will be clipped down and shared ) and articles on Medium and my website (Summarised version of discussions). By doing it in this way I believe that I might take my content to a wider audience.

The inspiration behind Finland Uncovered?

As an international resident in Finland, I always end up missing the information that I need. And then there is no proper guidance or guides available to get knowledge on topics like renting vs buying a home, insurance, Buying a car, taking loans, and understanding banking regulations. Just to understand the concept of loans in Finland, it took me a couple of hours and I went through many articles and videos, then I wondered why wouldn’t there be a single platform that shares all the information in one place.

And I want to see if it is only me or everyone, and then the majority of the people felt the same as me. And then I decided why wait for someone to do this when I can do this? And then Finland Uncovered was born out of the desire to make information available.

What Finland Uncovered Offers?

• Experts point of view.
• Real life expiriences.
• Real time issues.
• Insights from government agencies.

In short it’s all about empowering international residents in Finland by sharing knowledge.

Future plans?

While I have nothing planned yet, I am confident about the project’s success. I will share my journey along the way and see whether I succeed or fail in achieving my objective.
