문화적 배경

The Helsinki Central Railway Station is famous for its four massive statues, the 'Lantern Carriers'. Finns often use 'Kivimiehet' (The Stone Men) as a meeting point. Finns value silence and personal space on trains. Being 'menossa asemalle' usually involves preparing for a quiet, orderly journey. VR is the state-owned railway company. Finns have a love-hate relationship with VR, often joking about delays during the first snowfall. In Helsinki, the central station is called 'Steissi'. Using this word makes you sound like a local.
