If you start the conversation, I doubt anybody would decline talking to you because you are foreigner. Finnish people tend to be more quiet to everybody.

@alexiwanderlust I wouldn't say hate, but personal space is something finns appriciate. For example we don't give cheek kisses when meeting someone. And akward feeling silence during conversations is pretty normal, since finns don't use smalltalk to fill gaps.
