Welcome to Rather Be in Finland – an online store where the peace of Finnish nature, the joy of cottage life, and the love for personal space meets stylish t-shirts.

This online store was inspired by my Finnish-language store, Mun Paita(my shirt)(Munpaita.fi), where cottage-themed and nature-celebrating prints have won the hearts of Finns—especially favorites like "Mieluummin olisin mökillä" (I’d Rather Be at the Cottage) and "Syntynyt saunomaan" (Born to Sauna). Now, I want to share that same joy with anyone who loves the Finnish way of life, even if they don’t speak Finnish.

For me, Finland is more than just a homeland—it’s a place where I feel at home because I can breathe fresh air and enjoy true silence. The green forests, crystal-clear lakes, and sense of space make everyday life lighter. The feelings of safety and privacy run deep here—and these are exactly the values I aim to highlight through our products.

If you dream of escaping the daily hustle and long for moments where you’re surrounded by nothing but nature and peace, you’ve come to the right place. Here, you’ll find clothing that carries a piece of Finland with you—wherever you are.
