Did you move to Finland because you fell in love with a Finn?

If so, we want to hear from you!

This week's All Points North podcast explores the ups, the downs and everything in between that multicultural couples in Finland deal with.

Historically, multicultural marriages don't last as long compared to their fully domestic counterparts. At the same time, Finland's divorce rate is relatively high — but many Finn-foreigner couples do survive the tests of time.

We want to hear from people who have been through — or are starting — those experiences. Ideally we'd like to hear all sides of the story.

After you met your significant other, how did cultural and background differences affect the relationship? Were they challenging, a relief or a combination?

Even the most fiery romances see the lustre of love dull after a while. What happened to your relationship after life in Finland became more routine?

Would you recommend that your friends seek out love with a Finn?
