No problem. Is the first entry rule met? Have you already been to Finland with this multivisa? If yes, then no one will ask you anything, no booking confirmation is required. At the border control, you will say that the goal is shopping and tourism. If you are traveling for more than 3 days, you can take a liter of vodka with you, if less - only cigarettes, they are more expensive there. Have a nice rest!

with Finnish - you first need to go to Finland ... Or at the entrance to Latvia they may be asked to show a hotel reservation in Finl ... and determine the terms of latv. transit...

Everything will be fine, do not be afraid, you have not violated anything, and now you are free to walk around the Schengen wherever your heart desires! Do not go over only the number of days in the visa: 30, 45, 60, 90...

The only thing you may be asked at the border is insurance. In April of this year, the Latvian border guards at the Riga airport demanded to present insurance during a 20-minute connection, not only from us, flying on an Estonian visa to Tallinn, but also from a friend who crossed the border on an open Latvian multi-Schengen.

IMHO, it makes no sense to ask for return tickets. Maybe you are returning by plane, and there all the tickets are electronic, you may not have them on hand. Perhaps they will ask the address of your acquaintances in Riga, where you will stay. Again, I don’t know how all this happens on the train, but at the airport we were asked for the address of the hotel in Riga (street and house number), but they refused to look at the booking. In general, stay confident and do not worry, because you do not violate anything by moving within the Schengen area on a Schengen visa :)
