In summer of 2024, I was in Helsinki, Finland for an internship. Although, I had read that Finnish people are reserved and like tostay within their space, I had not expected it to be this:
2024年夏天，我在芬蘭首都赫爾辛基實(shí)習(xí)。雖然我之前聽說過芬蘭人比較冷淡而且不喜歡別人闖入自己的空間，但是我沒想到會是這樣：
At a bus stop: You are alone in the shade of the stop and that is your space. No one will come to bother you.
在公交車站：你一個(gè)人站在站牌陰影下，而這就是你的空間，沒人會來打擾你。
Inside a bus: You enter a bus and see that all the window seats are occupied. You don't have a seat and have to stand. Respect that space! (This is rather extreme, but you definitely get anxious as to where should you sit.)
在公交車內(nèi)：你上了一輛公交車，然后看到所有靠窗的位子都有人了。雖然旁邊還有位子，但是你就沒位子了，必須得站著。因?yàn)橐鹬貍€(gè)人空間!(這很極端，但說到坐哪里，你一定會感到很焦慮。)
You are scared to shout to the driver to stop the bus: I was running to catch the bus and signaled the driver by my hands to stop the bus. I entered the bus and saw all eyes were turned to me. I have never felt so guilty of anything.
你不敢朝司機(jī)大喊讓他停車：我跑過去攔公交車還揮手示意司機(jī)停車，當(dāng)我上車之后看到所有人都轉(zhuǎn)過來看著我。我從來沒有這么內(nèi)疚過。
I caught my Finnish neighbor sneaking into his room and pretending that he didn't see me in the hallway:
我當(dāng)場看到我的芬蘭鄰居偷偷進(jìn)他自己的房間還假裝沒在玄關(guān)看到我：
There was seemingly no traffic and I decided to cross the road while the light was still red. I looked back and saw a man shaking head in discontent. I waited for it to turn green next time onward.
路上看起來沒有車輛，所以我決定在紅燈的時(shí)候過馬路。我回過頭看到一個(gè)男人在很不滿地?fù)u頭。所以我等到綠燈了才往前走。
Finns don't like small talk. You ask general questions and a long, detailed answer follows.
芬蘭人不喜歡閑聊。你問普通的問題會得到一串又長又詳細(xì)的回答。
