Neither easy nor difficult to read. Produced by Jeroen Hellingman and the PG Distributed Proofreaders Team "Indrukken van Finland" by Clara Engelen is a travel memoir written in the early 20th century. The book offers a personal account of the author's visits to Finland, highlighting its unique culture, landscapes, and the Finnish people's experiences. It captivates readers with tales of adventure and discovery in a country that was relatively unknown to the author and her Dutch readers. The narrative describes Engelen's journey to Finland with her Finnish friend, detailing her experiences on the ship Storfürsten and her impressions upon arrival in Helsingfors (Helsinki). She encounters the Finnish people's distinct way of life, their hospitality, and their progressive education system, particularly for women. Engelen contrasts the natural beauty of Finnish landscapes with the urban environments she visits and reflects on the cultural significance of traditions and the Finnish struggle for independence. The book also traverses through various Finnish towns, offering observations about the local customs, cuisine, architecture, and the broader socio-political context of Finland during that era.
