    My adult son and I traveled from Helsinki to Rovaniemi in July 2022 and give this train a positive review. We also found the beds surprisingly comfortable. The only negative was that the water in the shower was cold (my son attempted a shower and I did not.) My mother was Finnish-American, and this trip was a bucket list item for me!

    I love how coffee (without the wait) can make everything better - A delay doesn't both you at all and the dollaspula becomes not just good, but "delightful!"

    Living in Canada, I would never have considered a vacation to a cold country in winter but your adventure looks amazing! Very cool train.

    Oh this is awesome! I've been a subscriber to both channels for about a year now, and it's super cool to see you guys made it to Finland! Salmon soup was definitely a solid choice for Finnish food, hope you enjoyed your visit.

    One of the things about international travel that holds me back is the worry about the language barrier. My Spanish isn't great. How do you handle language challenges? Goggle translate?

    • @TheAwkwardTourists

      Google translate helps, and lots of made up sign language! But the language barrier isn't as bad as an obstacle as you think it is

    This is so strange, I know a woman that looks just like the one in this video. Either she has a twin or it’s a true doppelgänger situation.

      It's a little strange to hear yourself talked about in the third person 😂
