This was an uncanny chapter to read. Due to the location not being specifically designed after any one place or time, my brain was constantly trying to locate when and where I've been in this place before...
And I don't just mean the town or indoors scenes. The forest itself clearly shouts out "This is North-European taiga" with its vegetation.
Nothing specifically Finnish to share this time around. Maybe you could stretch Aleksi being reference to Aleksis Kivi or something, but don't think so. It's a very common name afterall.
But if you do end up visiting us, do pay a visit to Porvoo or Hanko, which have well preserved historical towns, which this chapter clearly was inspired by.
Wait... Helsinki cathedral go home, you are drunk. You are a 19th century building lost in a medieval/renaissance world.
