Well not me but my wife is going on a Scandanavian tour + Finland from Korea next week. Is there anything she should know about before going. I’ve been to Europe myself a few times but not the northern part and I’m just worried bout her even though it is relatively safe up there.

That said, anything she should know good or bad? local customs? warnings? tourist traps?

        I keep hearing this. Is this a southern thing? In Norrbotten you can still use cash, though some places are changing this.

        Edit: in a city btw

          A few years ago we went to the fortress where Charles XII got killed in Norway, they refused to let us in (to the parking) on account of only taking cash. Perhaps they have updated their tech stack now though.

      i have not seen or used physical cash in Sweden for 25 year. i think this is true XD.

      we waste 100s of millions to keep cash and all it does is fueling the drug market.

        What happens if there’s war and the internet is down? Or if there is a power outage. Then you can’t buy shit.
