  • Didn't have a lot of time when I was in Finland but I made sure to get to Tampere to take care of a couple of things. Firstly to visit my grandparents grave. My grandfather passed when I was young and I never knew him. My grandmother passed when I was out at sea and I wasn't able to make it home for the funeral. She was brought back to Finland to rest. Secondly ... Tapolan!

    These honest and personal opinions and experiences in this and that other video are so much better than most of the Suomi-videos out here. Everybody does the same thing more or less in a same manner.. Tyyylsää! Hauska huomata kun toinen puhu englantia, vastasit suomeks ja kun sä puhuit englantia, niin toinen vastas suomeks. Kommunikaatioo.. :P

    My mother remembers the Rissanen family. They lived in the same village as my mother. My mother was in the same school class as your uncle (my mother was born 1943). She remembers that Rissanen family went to Kanada.

    Nice! Our grandparents are also buried in Tampere - Was this in Kalevankangas? (Legend Juice Leskinen is also buried close to our family grave). Tapolan black sausage is the best I've had with lingonberry jam! I also like the Finnish-Turkish kebabs the best compared to e.g. Germany and the UK (best places are Galata and Abu Fuad) - Also the buffalo hotwing capital in Finland lol (the guy bought back the wings in the early 90's). You should try the munkki's (sugar doughnuts) in Pyynikin näkötorni or Pyynikin Helmi cafeteria.

    Oli kyllä mukavaa kuunnella tuota alussa ollutta tarinaa, vaikka en millään tavalla tunne sinua tai muitakaan videon henkilöitä. Aivan en ymmärtänyt kuinka läheinen sukulaisuusuhde sinulla kyseiseen henkilöön josta puhuttiin oikein on/oli, eikä se minulle millään tavalla kuulukkaan, mutta silti oli mukavaa kuunnella vanhoja tarinoita kaukaisemmilta ajoilta! Oli myös hauskaa nähdä Tamperetta tämän videonkin kautta. Itsekin täällä Tampereella asustelen, Pohjanmaalta olen kuitenkin kotoisin.

    Ajoin tossa viime kesänä bussia Tampereella ja juuri tuon hautausmaan nurkilla ajoin siili päältä aamuyön tunteina kun eka linja oli keskustasta 03:50 ja olin sitten taas tulossa keskustaan päin takaisin joskus ennen viittä. Yritin parhaani mukaan väistää mutta ei onnistunut :(

      Those are urn graves with one plot fitting about nine urns. Also it's normal to walk on them to get to your section. The graveyard in question, Kalevankangas, has paved main "roads" which the cars would drive the bodies on or the staff would drive their mini tractors. The coffin plots are a bit further atop, as the urn plots go along the wall you see on the video.
      The grass is well cared for, there are a lot of different plant species and lots of trees. *"Walking on the graves" is not a thing here.* It's more disrespectfull to be obnoxiously loud without a reason, drunk or generally not behaving.
      Think you'd be more offended to know that in that graveyard there are several mass graves and there used to be a concentration camp there. And that the graveyard is popular for people taking walks, running or just walking through it to get to the bus stop.
      I've got atleast 6 relatives buried there in different spots, with one in the Sankarihauta (= Hero's Grave, a monument for those fallen in WW2) so I think I'd know.

      @@ImForwardlook Again, "walking on graves" is not disrespectfull here like in your country -assuming you aren't Finnish (checked it, you aren't).
      *And you literally have to walk over the plots (1m x 1m sized usually) to even get to the fucking gravestone!*
      _AGAIN._
      Not every place is like USA and not everywhere are the exact same views held.
      Heck, you don't dare go to a Sikh event and order them to bury their dead the Christian way. You don't get to tell an Indian person that burning the dead bodies is the wrong way to do it, because in your mind it's not correct.
      Or perhaps I should call all Americans lunatics for forcing their literal kids to salute to a fucking flag every morning, or risk being called a terrorist who will destroy the country?!
      But I, a Finn with half my life spent caring for dead people, my disabled mother and a bunch of abusive assholes, am out of my fucking mind to just walk to my own fucking grandmothers gravestone to place a small candle.
      Perhaps I shouldn't even do that, she was an alcoholic, abusive bitch after all. Would that be disrespectfull enough for you Mr. "Patriot".
      And as just a small tip: don't put "patriotic repuplican" videos in your own CZcams profile, when your people are causing mass murders to happen accross the country, are denying women of their human rights and have regressed USA to mashed potates. If you dare come at civilised people and one of the oldest cemetaries of the area, maybe you should take a good look at how cemetaries are being treated in the USA first.
