Hi Beeple!
A few family members moved to Finland (Helsinki region). I’m in the United States, but wanted to send birthday presents to them. Ideally without the expense, delay, and potential for shipping damage that comes with getting something near me and shipping it across the world.
Does anyone have any experience or suggestions for ordering gifts from within Finland or the surrounding region from the US? Is ordering from, say, Sweden akin to ordering between states (ie, no special considerations or hassles), or would it be best to only look within Finland itself?
I would prefer something akin to Etsy where I could find something handmade and/or novel. That seems more likely to encounter a language/payment barrier, though, and I’m not even sure where to start looking for something like that.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Ah, I feel a bit silly! I tried looking for things on Etsy using Finland in the search, which turned up a bunch of Finland-themed stuff from US sellers. Based on that I assumed Etsy wasn’t a thing in Finland. I didn’t realize there’s a filter option for the seller location. Thanks!
