Yes we have lodges in Finland as well due to the historical ties between Sweden and Finland, they are orginised under the Grand Chapter of Finland wich is our provincial Grand Lodge.
The grand lodge of Finland has three lodges in Sweden as well.

Some people still consider Finland part of Sweden so ;).
I guess the only diffrence is the
language and that our lodges use different rituals.

I just wanted to write a bit of an update to my story so far.

I was raised to sublime degree of master mason in may 2018.
Begining this year I joined Mark master masons and next year I'll be joining the Royal Arch chapter. I here We have MMM and RA on different bodies. Also we don't have the cryptic degrees but we can join the cryptic degrees in Estonia later on.
I served as a junior master of ceremony this year and will be installed as senior master of ceremony for 2020. I have already promised to serve as senior deacon 2021-2022. In MMM I was installed last month as a steward for 2020.
I also joined Widows Sons this last summer.
So basicly I'm doing great and enjoying every moment.
I am looking forward to gain more light and deepen my masonic knowledge.
