Advice for tourist (self.finland)

Hi! Can anyone suggest cool places to go and fun things to do in Finland for a tourist that doesn't like museums, historical buildings, etc, but is more interested in shopping, food, bars and fun physical activities?

I'm visiting Finland in March for a week and I am trying to make plans how to spend time there and I decided that it could be better to ask people that probably know better, because I don't know anything about Finland and internet just suggests things that seem boring to me. 😅

Uuu, thanks for the geocaching idea! I will deffo visit Helsinki, but I can go anywhere. What's the difference between Levi and Helsinki? :D

It was just an example, Levi is a ski resort destination in the north of Finland, so activities would include skiing, after ski and visiting sports goods stores I guess.. Helsinki hopefully have more varied things to offer. Never been there tho. Hell, I'm not even from Finland. Been to Levi tho. And Rovaniemi. Where you can visit Santa Claus and Lordi's square.

Oh, thanks for the info! 🤜🤛 Rovaniemi sounds like something my gf would be interested in, I'll look into it.
