Finnish summer is well known for its unpredictable weather; sometimes we're in t-shirts and shorts while the sun warms comfortably, sometimes we're in pouring rain with trusty umbrella. Either way, I don't laugh at all if you decide to take jackets with you, because it's good to be equipped in several different ways for Finnish summers.
I'm so glad that you liked our humble country. Small correction though... our bus system works much better in south. In Lapland people don't follow time that exactly, it's in their nature. But if you try to go from Helsinki to Tampere for instance, those timetables hold. I will follow you in Norway, have a nice trip there.
That is good to know, we are hoping to go to Helsinki this summer so we will see how the buses work there! We are so happy you have been liking our videos and we are even happier you will follow us through Norway! Thank you so much for your comment :)
@@JacobandJennyTravel I just want to let you know if you wanna go for a boat ride one summer day, I got a cozy boat and I know the helsinki/espoo archipelago. And with boat there is no parking fees Theres even free saunas by the sea.
May I guess? You guys hopped on to the bus at the Rovaniemi central bus station? The next stop is always the railway station - that's why it took a longer break, maybe the train was a little late or something. The bus routes are always attached to the train schedules up there. During my years I must have taken a long distance bus to/from Rovaniemi at least 25-40 times. I don't remember it being more than max 15 minutes late ever. I wouldn't say it's typical. Though rarely travelled during Christmas tourist season. In summertime buses were often even a couple of minutes ahead of the scheduled time. Got to admit that in Rovaniemi region you can sometimes get confused with the long distance buses and the normal town bus lines. They should be more clearly marked.
I used to drive a bus Kolari-Muonio-Olos-Pallas-Levi-Kittilä and back. Once a lonely traveler wanted to see reindeers so i stopped the bus in place of them and he was very happy.
Wow guys! We think you covered everything in this video. This is a great guide and should answer any questions someone may have before visiting Lapland.
Okay. So the reason busses seem to be late is because the time given in a website is the time when it leaves the station, so if you wait for it at a random spot on a road it takes time to get there
Thank you so much for these Lapland episodes. It was nice to watch you having fun. Welcome again❤ Ylläs and Saariselkä are wonderful places to visit, also in summer. But don' t leave your coat home, weather can be unpredictable in Lapland , also summertime.
We are so glad you enjoyed our Lapland series! We absolutely love Finland and are hoping to be back in the summer. We hope you will keep enjoying our Norway videos coming on Wednesday :) And thanks for the tip about the coats in summer!
Ylläs is physically bigger than Levi but less slopes and lifts. You just can ride longer :D I've been there once and for some reason I felt kind of "lonely". Hard to describe. The views are amazing and the pistes too but something was missing. Maybe it is the cozyness and warmth of Levi :D Saariselkä offers more wilderness around you and the landscape is more hilly while Ylläs and Levi stand alone even Ylläs has a couple of neighbour fells on the Northern side. Though I didn't like Saariselkä piste profile on the Kaunispää side and there is not much to ski in general. Might be a good place for cross country skiing though. Levi suits for advanced and expert skiers very well too and there is challenge in the steeper pistes in the West side, lift areas 5 and 6 and ofcourse the Levi Black World Cup piste. Lift area 6 includes also some off-piste runs. South Slopes (you were there) give you long and cruicy slopes and is a great place for beginners. "A hidden Gem" there is the slopes at the lift 14. Not that long but I like the profile and it is not that long so you can really push it hard all the way.
Would you guys be going back there this holiday season? Even though it looks cold, your videos from here make me wanna go there in the holiday season 😊.
It is pleasure to watch your travel videos because the content is good and well made, you are ready for little adventures and your happiness as a couple tinges all the content to be better still. One thing they mostly don't tell tourists in Finland: Often the tourist 'saunas' have temperatures ranging from 65 - 70C, thus making them warm rooms, not saunas. Optimal sauna has a powerhouse heater, which can withstand lots of thrown thermal sauna water, and it still stays hot enough. Genuine Finnish sauna has temperatures ranging from 90 - 95C, sometimes maybe a 1 or 2 degrees hotter. Sauna could still be Ok, if temperatures range between 85 - 89C, and the heater is mighty enough for plenty of water. God forbid, if temperatures range between 80 - 84C like in many Finnish high rises, no heater can save them. They resemble saunas, but are not. How Finns bathe in saunas, i.e Finns who have been in saunas since baby -ages, and are regular users of optimal saunas? Bather throws at slow pace more and more scoops of water to the rocks of heater, and let's the water gradually make the body hotter, until Hellfire -levels of heat and feelings are reached, and a passing thought may cross the mind, "I could go out". Exactly at that moment the mind is let to calm, to the point where mind floats in absent trance, and the bather stays serenely considerably longer in the sauna. And then at some undefined and other worldly point the bather goes slowly and calmly (no jumping or running in the sauna) to the dressing room to cool off. Then this is repeated 2 - 3 times, sometimes even 4, but not more. Afterward you are enjoyably a little bit of tired, relaxed and feel pleasure the whole evening, and sleep well the next night. There is a fine line between optimal sauna bathing and unsuitable sauna 'sport'. The purpose is not to try to stay longer than some other person, you are your own 'yardstick'. The purpose is not to cause burn injuries to the skin or damage to internal organs, which both can happen in "sauna sport". You are not trying to stay in the 'Hellfire' the absolute maximum time, but some optimum time. Sauna bathing was tried as a competition in Finland, people from all over the world participated. Who stays the longest in unbearably hot and humid sauna, wins. After a couple of years of such competition, in the last of such competition, all the others had left, a Finn and a Russian stayed. The Russian died, the Finn 'won', but ended up in hospital. How foreigners react to the genuine sauna bathing of Finns? What I have seen, and in my circles, they have soon run out of sauna in horror, saying that the sauna is unbearable and they are burning. Maybe there are foreigners who can withstand Finnish bathing, I just have not heard about them. However I think in general this means that the Finnish experience must be fitted to the requirements of foreigners, so that they reach the 'calm in the Hellfire' -experience and all that follows at their own level, not by making the saunas any colder than what the Finns are using, but regulating the pace and amount of water that is thrown to the heater rocks, which is the main way regulating the felt and experienced temperature of the sauna. Rolling in the snow or diving into a ice cold water after Finnish sauna? No, if this is done, it is best to do it BEFORE sauna, then slowly warming oneself in the dressing room, and then going to the sauna. Large and sudden temperature shifts are hard on either way to the heart and nervous system, but especially hard from extreme heat to extreme cold. The latter large temperature shift also has a tendency to spoil all the good after effects of Finnish sauna. Hence either do the extreme cold beforehand or keep these experiences separate altogether. Finnish sauna is a perfect experience on it's own too, and mostly it is done this way by the Finns.
Another great vlog guys. We are planning a family pilgrimage to Lapland in April, as it is our heritage and something we know very little about. Thanks for sharing your experience. As a father and son team of anthropologists and World travelers, we think heritage is amazing. - Turtle
You have to learn how to read timetables for Finnish busses, they drive with different times in different weekdays. Usually mon-fri are same timetables and sat-sun different. Timetables are mostly very reliable.
In the scandianavian countries Mastercard and Visa is the most common. And about the weather in Nowrway. If you plan to go there in the summer you could compare the climate to the climate in scottland warm and rainy. And also, northern norway like northern sweden are known as the land of the midninght sun. In other words the sun never set a couple of weeks around midsummer solstice. (and no, you can´t see the northern light then) But do some research befor you go to Norway
That is good to know! We are hoping to see the midnight sun in Finland or Sweden this summer. Right now we are in Norway and experiencing the polar nights! Thanks for all your comments :)
Sounds like Lapland busss are not holding up to standards like city buses! In the cities you have probably missed the bus if you are a minute late! Trains are mostly between bigger cities. And sometimes for local travel also. In the South they are much more useful. As a Finn, there has not been many places I've enjoyed the taste of water, Iceland and Scotland have good water and Norway as well. Glad you've enjoyed your stay!
Wow!! And yes the water was delicious in Iceland and Norway as well! I wish it was like that everywhere we travel! Thanks for your comment and for watching :) We hope you will also enjoy our Norway series starting Wednesday!!
i have never ever in my 44 years of life ever used handwarmers. neither do i remember anyone mentioning using them if not for trying it once for a gag. also, nothing about eating reindeer? :o
They are so helpful for us who aren't use to extreme cold to keep our hands from freezing :) the reindeer was good but the salmon seemed amazing to us!! Thanks for your comment :)
Beautiful reaction from you about Finnish winter time ❤But you should visit Finnish summer time from south to north also. I am from Kemijärvi, near Rovaniemi. But lived since 1990 in Oulu city because I came here studying and have worked since. Oulu city is about 300 kilometers from Rovaniemi and 350 kilometers from Kemijärvi. Kemijärvi is a very small city. But time to time I travel in Lappland, exploring nature, pure forests and rivers. Great routes in nature there. Just get your backpags and go. Summer times here can be very hot, but some years can be chilly. It depends on every year. But don't be afraid of that and I know you are not. The food, I eat salmon, raindeer, herring (very famous Finnish fish and healthy like salmon because of good protein and fat, no carbs). Another very good (small fish) is muikku, I don't know its English name, you have to figure it out. But it's small delicious fish also. Also has good protein. Have a good journey where ever travelling ❤
Thank you for all that wonderful information :) We are hoping to come back this summer and experience a midnight sun and see other parts of Finland! Our next video on Wednesday we will be in Norway and we hope you will enjoy it as well! Thanks for your great comment and watching our videos :)
@@JacobandJennyTravel Okay, those videos must be nice also. I have lived all my life in there is no light at summer time for 24 hours. And then at winter time there is no light hardly at all. I am used to that. But more I respect our beautiful spring and beautiful summer. So fresh nature. Will see your next journey. Love -Hannu
i have heated socks and they use lithium batteries. Is it like the USA where as long as you carry them on, it's ok? Also, do you have any videos talking specifically about Finnair?
Yeah we didn't have any problems bringing them in the USA or Finland. And yes we do, here is the link to the Finnair video :) ua-cam.com/video/S2QVmPdoFp4/v-deo.html
Public transportation in other con tries can be so stressful! In Ecuador our bus decided not to keep going at a certain stop and everyone had to change buses but we didn’t hear. Luckily we made it on the other bus in time but eek!
This is such a good spirit channel. 👍 And i know that you guys try sauna also naked, the only real way to do it. 😄 It's ofc not tube material lol. But yeah, you 2 are coolest couple. 💯
Thank you so much for your kind words!! They mean so much to us. Hahaha yes we couldn't film the true way to sauna ;) We hope you will enjoy our videos in Norway as well! Thank you for watching :)
For the next rip for to return here, I shall give you probably the best summer destination: Åland Archipelago. In my opinion the best to experience Åland (if you don't have a boat) is by bike. Here is our trip there last summer. There should be 5 more episodes coming after I ahve time to edit them :P ua-cam.com/video/qJzC9ojdgd4/v-deo.html
The bus system works pretty well in the northern Finland too. Mostly those buses move on time, no big problems. Finland is not like transporting in the southern Europe, Our system is much reliable and the buses are in good condition!
Going to school in Vaasa some 20 years ago, the busses never waited for us if we were even 2 seconds late. Would close the doors right in front of your nose, they had super tight schedules not to be messed with

@@JacobandJennyTravel yeah, i was able to do it coz he was only passenger that time.
No jacket in the summer :D it is like +15-25 celsius. u should visit us in summer, nightless night is awesome
We are hoping going to be back this summer! Thanks for the tip :)

When and if you come to Finland in the summertime, TRY FINNISH FRESH STRAWBERRIES! They are so delicious!!
