Hei! I'm Riikka, a Finnish slow traveller with a passion for immersing myself in local cultures: I've lived extended periods in Scotland, Sweden, Slovenia, Hungary, Croatia and my latest stop: Latvia. At nearly 40, I've figured out that my favourite type of travel isn't about racing through a list of must-sees, but about really getting to know a place – its history, its people, and why they do the things they do.
