THE CAPITAL REGION´S one-stop-shop for new arrivals to the country, International House Helsinki (IHH), has put together a helpful guide that answers all of your questions about living in the Helsinki area. The Newcomer’s Guide explains the process of moving to Finland and provides the necessary background information on living and working in the capital and its surroundings.
