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?

There is no legal minimum wage. It also varies from region to region. Wages in the three capitals can be nearly double that of the country side. But housing costs are even higher, on the other hand.
But typically no-one is paid less than 20k SEK per month in Sweden for a full time job, which means around 16k after taxes. Mind you, there is universal health care and free education including universities, so 15–18k per month goes quite a long way. Rent for a small apartment is usually around 5k and food costs for one person is typically 2–5k depending on culinary skills and diet.
