Means of transportation in Finland




Finland does not have a large population and the population density is also quite low. The traffic is also quite light and clear. The main means of transportation here are private cars and public transport. Finnish public transport systems are extremely convenient and comfortable. In harsh weather like in Winter or rainy day, the public transportation shows its utility. In summer, the nice weather encourage people to use friendly environmental means of transport like walking and biking. In Finland, there is a separate lane for bicycle riders along with pedestrians. One important feature is that facilities for handicapped citizens are organized around the cities in order to support them better. This shows the highly developed social system in Finland.

With the rapid development of globalization, cultural awareness plays an key role in our living and working life. For me, as a overseas student, I used to have many problems with adapting to a new environment. This can be considered as Cross Culture. According to Bennett's Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensitivity, this path has six stages with different behaviors and perceptions.
