As a Fin its so refreshing to see tourists go to other parts of Finland than just helsinki and the santas village in lapland. Finns from all the other parts say that helsinki is not a real authentic part and experience of Finland.
We did enjoy Santa's village, but we think we got a well rounded experience of Finland on this trip! Can't wait to come back! Thank you and thanks for watching!
You guys are awesome travellers. I don't understand why you don't have higher views with the amount of subscribers you have on your channel. You deserve so much more. Wishing you more views per episode. 😊
Kampanisu has many local variations (and often families have their own recipe, which is a variation of the local version). Some use more sugar, some less, and some not at all (in the East Lapland less sugar is used than the West Lapland, in Kemijärvi no sugar at all). There is also variation in the number of fingers depending on the place. The common number is 4 (Salla) or 5 (Kemijärvi), but there are 3, 6, and even 7 finger versions (Kuusamo). In some areas, it is bent into a steep arc, which makes it look like reindeer antlers.
The two of you are troopers. You have handled the snow well whether walking, hiking or driving, I may have to skip Norway and spend my time in Finland. You are the best at what you do.
We haven't been to Norway yet, but from the looks of it we wouldn't recommend skipping! We are dying to go to Norway! But there are many amazing things to do in Finland as well like we've shown. Thank you!
It is comforting, isn't it, the sense of security and safety that good winter tires give you. The ones I use actually have crushed walnut shells all through the rubber so as they wear they remain very grippy. Another great glimpse of a place far away, thanks.
@@shannoninalaskaToyo tires either uses or used walnut shells in the Observe line of tires. I'm not certain if they still do, my tire place still had them as of two years ago.
We’ve loved this series! Great driving in all that snow. The hike was incredible thanks for taking all the slips & slides for us. Great job guys~Cara 😊
As a Finn I really enjoyed this series 😊 especially the cabin episode, it reminded me of my grandmothers cabin on an island in central Finland. It is so peaceful to be in a cabin middle of nowhere 😁
We are planning a trip to Finland in October and your videos were amazing! Loved watching your travel experiences, and it’s made me so excited to experience Finland for myself.
Korouoma is awesome. I've visited during all of our four seasons and it never disappoints, even after multiple visits there's still more to explore. Autumn is also nice with all the colors. The climb out is a workout, especially if done multiple times a day with a backpack. Wilderness cafe owners are also very nice people. Visited last year and the cafe wasn't open, but they offered a coffee at their rental hut when I'd pass by. Got out of the rain to warm up and chit-chat everything from hiking to music.
It was a really awesome area! Would love to see it in other seasons! The cafe was wonderful as well and yes they were very nice! Thank you for watching
Hello Adventurers, WOW Finland is absolutely beautiful and so many interesting places and driving in the snow. What an adventure...AMAZING! Oh, and those treats...wish I was there.
Been following since I watched the Newfoundland Labrador episodes you guys done awhile back. I’m from the western Labrador(mainland) part of the province so it was nice to see someone’s take on a province I call home. I have travelled to the island part of the province as well many times so it was cool to see familiar places as well.Always look forward to the next video, safe travels guys!
Beautiful waterfalls....and I agree with your hesitation on climbing them.. But I have to ask, where are your gloves? My hands were cold just watching your video. 😊
We had gloves and mittens 😊 we have to take them off and back on to film. Plus it was only 0° so it was much more bearable than our previous adventures! Thanks for watching!
Lucky that you visited just at the right time and got to experience real Northern winter! Since in the last 2 years the February-March season have been record warm months and it's been +2 in Rovaniemi now and most snow has melted.. 😮💨 It must be a bummer for travelers here currently
If you ever come back to Finland, I can definitely recommend Kuusamo, especially in the summer. It's not in Lapland but the nature and landscapes are something you would see in Lapland
Really nice video and I was happy to see your impression and happiness. I have never been to Korouoma even I've lived in Finland my whole life, but I know the place where it is etc. Maybe I should go there some day :)
You know, the main consensus is that the Flat White coffee originated in Australia (either Sydney or Melbourne). Like many things though, there’s a dispute with New Zealand about who did it first. If you manage to get Down Under, you’ll be pleased to know that we have one of the most intense coffee cultures in the world. We love coffee
I (Adam) spent 3 months working and traveling in Australia back in 2012. That’s where I first learned of it! They are our favorite coffee drinks and we get them whenever we can!
A major highlight of my week is looking at the channel and seeing a new video. How do you guys handle language barriers? Also, in my free time, one of my hobbies is watching videos of your travels. I'm in the middle of the Vermont videos.
There wasn't much a language barrier anywhere on this trip! If there is a barrier we always have the language downloaded on Google Translate and also try to have a handful of basic words memorized. (thank you, please, etc) Thank y'all for watching!
Only thing i have to add is that that was mild version of the mustard, maybe that’s why it’s sweeter. There is same one with red color if u want the extra kick 😁
Have loved watching your recent Finland videos, plus your quick trip to Tallinn. It helps with my withdrawal symptoms after half a dozen visits last year to Finland & Estonia, and several planned for later this year, watching y'all have fun is a blast. Those Skoda's are nice little cars, we only have a few of their range down here in Australia. Fun Fact, the trams in Helsinki are all made by Skoda 🙂
Skoda is owned by VW or more precise VAG Volkswagen auto group. So if you want a Skoda in states go VW. Not sure if VW Tiguan is closest to that rental car.
You actually grilled your sausages on the newer place that was actually built by the tour operators. Which is why there was no firewood and it was already lit. I guess the new trail actually goes slightly past the original camp spot with two lean-to's (Laavu in finnish) and fire place's. It has a composting toalett and also firewood. I have fond memories of sleeping on said Laavu many years ago... it was a bit nippy at times, as it got as cold as -25 C during that trip. Also some of the most spectacular or striking waterfalls are actually downstream of where you started your way backup the hill. But since it's a bit of a slog and not maintained, you would have needed snowhoes or skis. I'd say that the nicest looking fall in Korouoma is Bluefall (Sininen putous) or also often called Wolfs tooth (Sudenhammas) by climbers.
The fire pits were very nice! We got lucky with that fire still going! We did see the sign about how those are for the tour groups and figured if there wasn't a group around then we could use it That camp spot and other waterfall sound awesome!
I live in Helsinki and its great to see you appreciating the other parts of Finland as well. Helsinki is definitely worth the visit but it doesn't represent the "real" Finland as a whole. Great video!
You guys are awesome!!! so much of information and so happy you guys are, as a couple. Love the bonding. And you guys went for the hike alone? Not any tour agent or guide? I am visiting Rovaniemi in feb. I saw get your guide provides this canyon hike guide, do I need one?
Awesome! We're so excited for you! No you do not need a guide, but you will need a way to get there like a rental car. We have a full detailed guide on our website that explains everything you need to know for the hike! Hope it helps! adventuresofaplusk.com/korouoma-canyon-frozen-waterfalls/
If you are interested in a fun road-trip style comedy movie, there's this film called "Lapland Odyssey (Napapiirin sankarit)" which takes mostly part at Rovaniemi, I highly suggest checking it out for exotic (even for us southern finns) lapland-context, one of my favorite finnish movies for sure.
I've been following you two since the beginning. I just love you two. You are just so cute together.I love these videos but can't wait to you three are back in the van trips.Miss🐕
If you encounter a semi truck in bad weather you can't slow down, because longer you are in the cloud more likely you are going off the road. And if you slow down and someone is behind you they can't see your breaking so and ram into you and in worst case scenario they hit you and you fly to on coming traffic. So no slowing down when they come towards you, faster you are out of it the safer it is for everyone. Friendly tip from a local, seen so many horrible head on accidents in UA-cam (Sometimes with a semi truck even) so don't want anything to happen to you. Tips what to do. 1. If it is clear so you can see far, but only when the truck is going past you lose visibility and you see it far away you have to look at the road where it is going before the truck is past you and follow it as best as possible. 2. If you can't see the road like in example 1, you have to look at the red posts on the side of the road then you see you are going on the right tracks. When you are near them on your passanger side you are good. 3. Best thing on bad weather is to have open a navigation app that follows you in real time then you see where the road goes so you can anticipate the turns and see them. Sometimes this is the only thing you see when the weather is really bad you have to turn according to the navigation app. And that is scary. I recommend Waze as the app.
I keep forgetting to ask you guys are you going to travel in the van at all this year? There’s a really good Finnish show on the Roku channel called Bordertown. It’s a cop drama
Stud or friction tires are required by law in the wintertime. You might not have time to run into a police car before you crash anyway, so... There is that :D Basically suicidal
All tires are "friction tires", but to clarify, you meant snow/winter tires without studs.. ;) Generally they work well in conditions like in this video (dry ice/snow). Studs are useful when the temperature is a bit warmer and the road more slippery.
@@pvdogs2Studs are banned on some individual streets in Helsinki (as an experiment or something). :) Anyway, winter is generally much milder in Canada than Finland, so there's less need for studs or specific winter tires in general.

@@joojoojeejee6058 Yes, where we are in the southern part, we use all season tires outside of winter and winter tires during the winter season. In some parts of Canada, the studded tires are allowed only during some months and in some areas commercial vehicles are required to use studded tires during the winter. In areas where you can RV in the winter, winter tires and some sort of traction device like chains are required. Some areas of Canada can get really frigid temperatures. Alberta this year has had a few days around -45C (without the wind chill). On the other hand we have had a very mild and dry winter in southern Ontario although we did have a couple of weeks with the temp hovering around -27 C.
0 celsius in Lapland is like +10 C in Helsinki. The air in Lapland is so dry, so you don't feel the cold in same way as on the coast line in the southern parts.

Drove an old Citroen wagon from Rovaniemi to Oulu in a white-out blizzard, at night. - 43. It was a white knuckle ride.
Thank you for your Finland series. I’m a full-blooded fan and my mother was born in Finland.
You guys are just as good as Kara Nate.

ive once climbed frozen waterfall in finland, it was awesome experience when i finally trusted the guy holding my safety line
Nice! Yeah it would be tough for us to be comfortable!
I live in Minnesota and as a person familiar with driving in the snow you guys are doing awesome!
Thank you!

I'm glad you have enjoyed your stay in Finland. It's fun to see travel vlogs where people do other stuff than just visit the Santa village

You actually grilled your sausages on the newer place that was actually built by the tour operators. Which is why there was no firewood and it was already lit. I guess the new trail actually goes slightly past the original camp spot with two lean-to's (Laavu in finnish) and fire place's. It has a composting toalett and also firewood. I have fond memories of sleeping on said Laavu many years ago... it was a bit nippy at times, as it got as cold as -25 C during that trip.
Also some of the most spectacular or striking waterfalls are actually downstream of where you started your way backup the hill. But since it's a bit of a slog and not maintained, you would have needed snowhoes or skis. I'd say that the nicest looking fall in Korouoma is Bluefall (Sininen putous) or also often called Wolfs tooth (Sudenhammas) by climbers.

Usually you could just take a stick from a tree for your sausage. Not sure if it's allowed in Korouoma.
I'm sure that would've been fine! Luckily we didn't need it
Awesome video ! My wife and I were cracking up at your sauna pretty sure it’s pronounced “Saw nah”
Not in Finland and many other places in Europe 😊
finlandiafoundation.org/programs/national-sauna-week/how-do-you-say-sauna/
NO, sauna IS NOT pronounced "saw nah". That is a common mistake for foreigners but they actually pronounced it correctly on the video 👌
Skoda is part of the Volkswagen group, so you might find very similar car in the US under the VW brand. Or Audi.
Very cool! Maybe one day when we're in the market!

In areas where you can RV in the winter, winter tires and some sort of traction device like chains are required. Some areas of Canada can get really frigid temperatures. Alberta this year has had a few days around -45C (without the wind chill). On the other hand we have had a very mild and dry winter in southern Ontario although we did have a couple of weeks with the temp hovering around -27 C.
no gloves, are you used to the cold now?
0 celsius in Lapland is like +10 C in Helsinki. The air in Lapland is so dry, so you don't feel the cold in same way as on the coast line in the southern parts.
0 degrees isn't too bad. We did wear gloves and mittens most of the time though. It's just way easier to film without gloves on
