      It is indeed changing, but the change did *not* start in Lappeenranta. If you look at the youngsters in Helsinki region alcohol is not as popular as it was in the previous couple generations. But the amount of alcohol consumed in Finland has long been in the Eastern European levels, so even if the amount has dropped a bit, it's a long way to go.

    That was, btw, one of the things I wondered a bit about in your earlier video. Yes, drinking is absolutely not taboo in Finland in any way. Being drunk all the time is, however, not regarded as a good thing, as you should well know, and not a lot of students do it. Some may fall into that trap though, unfortunately.
    What I more wondered about was how you felt that it was different than in your country. Students maybe use more drugs instead of alcohol there? And do you think that is better?

  • @JariJuslin

    When it comes to the language, Finnish is not that difficult per se *but* it's from a completely different language group. Russian is written in fancy letters, but it's still ultimately an Indo-European language and once you can read the alphabet it's a lot easier to approch, coming from English, than languages from completely different families.

    Действительно Вы очень быстро говорите и моего уровня английского языка недостаточно, чтобы в полной мере понять всё, что Вы говорите. Но, часть сказанного Вами я понял.
    Русские тоже очень любят Финляндию и мы живём в мире уже 80 лет, ведём взаимовыгодный бизнес, по крайней мере до 2022 года.
    Что касается традиции выпивки крепких алкогольных напитков, то в настоящее время во многих странах, включая как Финляндию, так и Россию популярность крепких алкогольных напитков падает, как минимум у молодёжи. Безусловно, существует давняя традиция сильно напиться летом на праздник Йоханнус (Иванов День). Всё большую тревогу вызывает распространение химических наркотиков, вызывающих зависимость и психические расстройства. В России так же набирает популярность трезвый образ жизни, спорт, качалка, огромное количество людей на 100% отказываются от алкоголя и табако курения, и я в том числе.
    Было бы замечательно, что бы как можно большее количество людей как можно раньше осознали, что ни наркотики, ни алкоголь не решают личных проблем, а всё только усугубляют.
    Я тоже живу в Финляндии уже несколько лет, я люблю и уважаю финнов, у нас очень много общего, у нас на много больше общего чем со шведами или, например, с американцами.
    Всем добра и позитива.
    Обнял!

In Finland low-alcohol drinks are very popular, if you go to the store on Friday evening, most visitors will have six-packs of beer, long drinks and cider in their carts. I have never seen anything like this in Russia. Or so that every second passerby in the city would be drunk on a Friday night, like in Helsinki or Tampere

    Russian is the most spoken foreign language in Finland and that's not surprising considering we share some 1300km of border with them. During the period of constructive relations between Russia and the EU quite many Russians came to Finland to work manual labor because from Finnish perspective they were cheap to hire and from Russian perspective the pay was decent. Similar to Mexicans working low wage jobs in the US.
    And then there's paluumuutto. The Finnish state kind of screwed over inkeri people in the 20th century several times leading to their genocide in USSR, and as a way to compensate starting in 1990s and continuing to around 2015-2020 Finland gave free entry and permanent residence permit for all people from Finnic tribes in Russia. You didn't have to speak Finnish, or Karelian or Inkeri, it was enough to have either fought for Finland in the WW2 or have one of your grandparents marked as a Finn in Russian papers. Most of the people who arrived had been assimilated to a point of speaking Russian as their mother tongue, so that gave Finland a plenty of new Russian speaking permanent residents.

      Most likely, now the majority of Russian speakers in Finland are people who did not come from modern Russia. Finland is full of Russian speakers from the Baltic countries and other post-Soviet countries. Plus, in the last couple of years, tens of thousands of Ukrainians have come to Finland (all of them speak Russian like native speakers). Now, when I meet some Russian-speaking people in Helsinki, in most cases they are not from Russia. I'm an Ingrian Finn and nowadays I rarely meet them (well, except for my friends). I think there are no more than 15-20% of all Russian speakers (if I remember correctly, statistically their wives and husbands were also registered as Ingrian Finns when they moved with the whole family) and not all of them came from Russia (for example, some came from Estonia). Only the Ingrian Finns had a paluumuutto-oikeus, other Finnish tribes did not have this.
      "have one of your grandparents marked as a Finn" If I remember correctly, there should have been at least two of them and often only soviet documents were not enough for this, for example, I had to show a whole box of documents (Soviet and Finnish, plus papers from the Finnish archive in Helsinki) at the Finnish consulate
