[@emil4290]

[@mantailuaa]

They said that pea soup is bought from the shops mostly on mondays not eaten.

[@clashof6d]

Finland's first pizzeria was founded in Hamina city in the year 1961 by an Italian ship cook Giovanni ”Nino” Tedeschi. His restaurant was very popular and there it took off. Here's a scene from the Mika Kaurismäki's 1985 movie Rosso: "Rosso - Olen suomalainen". The Finnish version of the song was released in 1983 and it's a Finnish classic. "Sono un finlandese" sang by Kari Tapio here: "Kari Tapio - Olen Suomalainen". Rosso is also an Italian style restaurant chain in Finland, at least that's what they claim: "Rosso 40 vuotta aikajana". That "Italian" in that movie Rosso is a Finnish actor Kari Väätänen. I don't know how authentic he sounded. Here's a music quiz by a popular comedy group Kummeli: "Musavisa - Gruppo Sicilia - Italia". Maybe they did a better job at passing as Italians.

That's a really nice piece of history you just shared with me, really aprreciate it! Very interesting story

Second oldest was in city of Lappeenranta, founded by Italian Adriano Vinciguerra in 1964, who happened to be friends with my family. My dad made the window graphics for it. And I was taken to pizzeria from very early age in a time when pizza was not common yet in Finland. My mom started baking pizza in early 70's at home too. Me as a fan of Italy, studied Italian and listened only Italian pop in my early teens. And to this day I never been to Italia yet 😢

[@lintu25]

Love you man :D love from Finland. Been Italy once, i loved it. I will visit again.

[@Skerrry]

The difference between 50kmh and 75kmh is pretty big actually since the stopping distance almost doubles.

We dont have 6 months of dark and six months of light anywhere. It is only at north and south poles that do that. But in the northest part of finland, utsjoki, there is 2.5 months of no sunset in the summer and two months of no sunrise in the winter. And even when it comes up, it stays there only a while at first and vice versa. The same phenomenon is of course happening in the southern finland too, but less. for example in the city of Tampere, where I live, allbeit the sun does go belowe the horizon, but it only goes so little that there is no official darkness in for about a month in the summer. And again, of course vice versa.

01:17 Yes, you eat like any other bread, also there is many types of rye bread and all of them taste different.

38:20 - But it is still a fine you have to pay... And if you make a million a year, you should pay hundres of thousands.. 100 bucks/euros would be a pittence for a millionaire, but when they have to pay hundreds of thousands, that's equality. :)

[@SK-nw4ig]

When i go to Kotipizza, i always order pizza Berlusconi with pineapple. It is DELICIOUS.🎉😂

[@peterarmoton2685]

im living 130km from Artic Circle, we have light about, totally light (Sun wont get down) about 1,8 months. And Darkness (Sun wont rise) about 3 weeks. But the light and darkness is, when you are sleeping, you wont notice that thing, you can think that sun wont rise or sun won sunset.

Finnish is written and spoken exactly the same way. Most languages are not. Fun fact, a Finnish person can basically read Japanese perfectly if the words are written in western letters.

[@mixlllllll]

He meant that Finnish spoken language is much different than written language.

[@cani-stay-withyou3406]

​@@mixlllllllthat's what he said, but it's not true. You say Finnish as it's written

[@mixlllllll]

@@cani-stay-withyou3406 You clearly didn't get it. Yes, Finnish is read as it is written. But Finnish spoken language is different than written language.

[@cani-stay-withyou3406]

@@mixlllllll ?????? It's not? You speak what is written. There's no funny stuff like in English (read, read etc) it's just spoken like it's written

When finns go to estonia to get cheap alcohol, they dont bring only bag or two of it but i have seen people bringing literally a van fully stuffed as much + trailer on it also stuffed in full 😂😂😂😂👌 my friend brought like 1500 liters of alcohol 😂😂😂😂

[@mauronicolo89]

ahahah

[@MrBanaanipommi]

@@mauronicolo89 hey btw. have u reacted to finnish patriotic songs? for example säkkijärven polkka (säkkijärvi polka) is interesting because finnish army at some point noticed that when they play that music, russian radio-launched mines/bombs detonated, so they used that song to clear enemy mines and stuff :D i think it was not very common or so but still cool way to detonate enemy bombs lol! that one is not actual patriotic song but more like folk song hehe

[@Finland-SkiTeam39-40]

Thanks again Mauro !! Some facts of that video were pure nonsense but you know Finland so no problem 🙂; keep up the good work.

[@SK-nw4ig]

Hey, youtuber "Irish in Finland" covers quite a lot of finnish mythology in his videos if you are interested. Kalevala is very important, but it is mainly created by Lönnrot, based of course to the old poems and spells, which we have over 10k recorder in last two, three hundred of years. It is the biggest saved folk lore database in the world. They can be found online. The poems contradict each other and are about everything under the sky. Very interesting and endless possibilities for studying. Impossible to translate mostly though very accurately since it is old finnish and words are bended however (:

[@MrBanaanipommi]

And i rarely drive my headlights on, i use parking lights only to save my old Lada's alternator 😂

[@mimia85]

We Finnish have time to sleep at winter, so at the summer you just take long nap every now and then and spend most of the time enjoying life (and warmth). So the sun shining all day long doesn't matter :) ...Dark season is called "kaamos" in Finnish, and both kaamos and nightless night ("yötön yö" in Finnish) are complete in North (Lapland including the Scandinavian part and of course Northern Russia)

[@tonikaihola5408]

The religion in Finland is mainly Lutheran Christian but we’re really not that religious, most people go with it because of tradition.

[@uikonimi]

You need to try traditional rye bread made from sour dough! That is the best kind there is!

[@urhonykvist8795]

I have heard that suomi name actilly comes from suo what means swamp in finnish but i dont have any clue what the mi in suomi means

[@jussi3539]

You had the worst and most dry type of Rye bread. You need to try Reissumies for example :)

[@varajalka]

Translation on "kalsarikännit" was a bit off. kalsarit means underwear like boxers or whitey tightys so kalsarikännit would be more like getting drunk at home and not even bothering to put pants on.

[@heikkijhautanen4576]

Yeah salmiakki ruless!!!!

[@MrBanaanipommi]

Name Suomi comes from "swamp". In finnish "suo" and finland is full of swamps... so someone thought to name it Suomi

[@SK-nw4ig]

This is apparently not proven. I dont know what "suo" is in sami language? It souds plausable that "suomi" and "sami" come from the same origin.

[@MrBanaanipommi]

@@SK-nw4ig nah

[@jussi3539]

Yeah, this is just one of the theories, but most likely not correct

The Swedish salmiakki chocolate ball Salmiakbomben was the best sweet at this year's Salmiakki picnic, according to the jury. The handmade ball received a grade of 9+ on the traditional school grade scale (4-10). Chocolate praline rolled in salmiakki powder hides soft toffee inside. Salmiakbomben is currently manufactured in Stockholm by the Lakrits Sverige company. The product was created by Lena Johansson of the Ett Chokladeri company twenty years ago.

Burger King sauna is no more, it was closed few years ago. And the amount of cars is not lower than the amount of the saunas. Seriously, some of the ”facts” are just wrong in this video. And some are just old information/rumors.
