    Henri has the most sophisticated and interesting conversations with very intelligent people like this lovely woman. Very different from most other UA-cam polyglots who are just in it for the surprise factor. In Henri’s videos the surprise is often the least interesting part of the conversation. It’s still fun to watch but where he takes it afterward is what makes his content so compelling.

      I agree. I think it is a channel that shows us people and culture through languages, but not by trying to do that. Instead he truly listens and interacts, allowing everyone to do that themselves. I love it.❤

    The Chinese think you speak like you are from Beijeng. Your English is so good, you could have grown up in the United States. I am starting to doubt you speak Finnish.

    since you're quite fond of the chengdu rap scene I would recommend jackzebra, or kaizheng as his Chinese name. he is one of my favourite rappers actually not just chinese, I would strongly recommend especially to you to check him out since he loves and always uses mandarin and says mandarin is like magic. I myself don't know any chinese but love him musically.

    Ahh weather, the all-time global conversation starter.
    I don't think she contextualized how hot 40 is to a Fin. She's also going on about the lack of sun in winter due to clouds in the way while you're probably thinking of "days" where you lack sun due to the earth in the way.
    I live where the delta smelt put out our crops and fuel our fires. Lows rarely below -10C (filipino wife dressed like eskimo; i consider wearing socks and pants), highs rarely above 47C (filipino wife wants cool philippine vacation; I set AC at 10C --> filipino wife wants to move back to philippines). Never forget how weather impacts a relationship ;)

      What kind of music do you like? A lot of rap songs got an accent / speak a bit of their dialect.

      His music is quite melancholic
