Kara and Nate so happy it was such a success!!! Safe travels and love your show!!

[@BEAdventurePartners]

We are in! Can't wait til we get to the US/Canada to test it out. Well we can kinda wait... Since we are in Ecuador. BUT we didn't want to miss out on your big launch! This is extremely exciting, and we are so thrilled for you guys! Can't wait to read next quarters income report. We just read your last one. HIGH FIVE! We are so stoked for our biz to explode like yours. We are going along at a good kip, but it seems as though you work your buns off for SOoOOOO long with decent return... AND THEN... You guys have seriously picked up some tail wind. We are so thrilled for you both. :) - Erin + Brian Ps... Great video. Sometimes the universe pushes you along faster then you would like for a reason. Love how positive you guys handled it. No reason to get that upset when you have a lifestyle most wish they had.

4:34 Small correction: The largest Orthodox church in western Europe is called Uspenski Cathedral, which is located in Katajanokka, Helsinki. The one that you showed us in the video is called Helsinki Cathedral, which is an Evangelical Lutheran church.

@hkistreet I've seen both whe I visited Helsinki several years back, and I think it's very interesting to seem them in contrast to one another, the Lutheran being very simple and the Orthodox very opulent.

[@feddcraft]

Came here to write the same comment, then the first three comment to this comment. That's what we get when we visit a city being in a hurry! Finnair should get K&N back especially to see Helsinki and more of a country. And then Saint Petersburg too.

Positivity goals: Kara still looking so chilled and happy while Nate is talking about how their flight got canceled!

[@karhunkulma]

That wasn't an orthodox church. Just normal lutheran church. And I noticed you published this video quite a long time from actually being in Helsinki. All the ice from the sea and snow from the fields disappeared about five weeks ago. Now there are leaves on the trees and everything is green. And it's totally normal that every taxi driver anywhere in Finland helps with the bags. But I really hope you can make back to Helsinki some day. I recommend late June or July.

[@Victorialmeyer]

The sauna analogy on the bus was epic! It's my bucket list to be that far north in the winter for the northern lights and then again in the summer when the sun never sets. Hopefully, you can go back when it's warmer. The European sauna experience is definitely something to do!

[@KaraandNate]

[@nesadcruz7840]

We loved Helsinki. We ate at the same Market hall and also at the Market Square from where we took a ferry to Suomenlinna . The church we loved was the Rock church, Temppelaukio. I strongly recommend seeing that. It was near our holiday apartment, near the Sibelius monument. Finnair was our carrier too . No issues. We flew SIN- HEL- ZRH roundtrip. We were there in June and left when the sun was shining at midnight, midsummer solstice.

[@tihk89]

Just small correction: that white church isn't the Orthodox church, it's Lutheran church. The Orthodox church is behind Kara at 1:11 :) Too bad you had to cut your day short in Helsinki but more reasons to come back! :)

Rye bread is an acquired taste. But it has much more vitamins than white bread, and it's more filling, like about 4-5 times more.

[@FreedomStrider]

Those running shots when it started to rain made me giggle xD

[@consciouscommunity3897]

Wow! New camera is nailing it!!! It’s really highlighting Kara’s skills 💕

[@allamusk1183]

At 2:37 that is a sturgeon not a salmon😂

[@timomastosalo]

Salmon with rye bread and not with white bread, is likely primarily based on the fact that rye bread is just much more filling than white bread. And it has a lot of nutrients, whereas white bread has barely any nutritive value. Just a word of warning: for some people not used to rye bread it can make their stomach churn. Like some British people I've noticed. That bread so reactive material, and also quite sour, and some countries don't have that much sour dishes, so the bosy is not accustomed to the substances rye contains. It's basically just used in northern Europe, including northern Russia. But I don't know about the more southern and western Slavic countries.

Time for SAUNA ! A Finn invented FIRE - it is easier to burn the wood & heat SAUNA !

[@timomastosalo]

Helsinki requires a couple of days to enjoy - and maybe research the attractions beforehand: they are so sprinkled you might not find them without preparation. Though the center is very compact and you can't really get lost: the city center is on a relatively small peninsula, so you'll find a coast usually in 5-10 minuntes. Also you may waste your time in travelling too long from A to B, or by not finding the place, circling on some square. Well, the usual tourist hazard on an unplanned trip.

[@mollykate1252]

When I was there last Megabus and its competitors were a great way to travel, never more than $15 and amazingly clean, friendly, and on time. Check out the city of Turku if you get a change to go back, seeing the Posankka and Turku Castle are really fun. Also Vappu (May 1st celebration) is well worth experiencing anywhere in Finland and is a warmer time of the year!!
