I just got to Helsinki and I found this video helpful. Thank you!
I am visiting Helsinki this coming Monday. Your video has helped with most of my interest in the simplest way. Loved it
Thank you for sharing
Great to hear and thanks for watching! I hope you'll enjoy Helsinki and Finland! 🤩
Thank you so much. What a wonderful video. I appreciate your help and attention to detail. You are most kind.
Thanks Elizabeth, I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed it! 😊
Will be visiting in two months. Saving this for future reference! The spa and pools seem very interesting!
Perfect! Thanks for watching Steven, and I hope you'll enjoy Helsinki and the Finnish culture! I'm sure the spa and pools (and the saunas) will be a relaxing experience :)
Thank you! I am a solo traveler visiting Helsinki next week. Your video is very helpful 🙏
Amazing!! I'm so happy to hear that you found this helpful. Have a great time in Helsinki! 😍
Awesome video! Very informative. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!! I'm glad this was helpful 🤩
Really useful, thank you for posting. I was only planning to pass through on the way to Tallinn but I may change my plans and stay longer!
Thanks for watching! 🤗 Oh nice, Tallinn is wonderful but a day trip to Helsinki from there is super convenient if you'd like to see some of the Finnish capital as well. You can take the ferry which is about 2 hours one way. 😄
Useful information Milla.
Glad to hear! ☺️
I loved all your tios and sites to see...precise and a bit different from others!
Thank you, that's so kind! ☺️
Best video ever .
Wow I appreciate that!! 😍
top content,Milla~ 😊
Thank you!! :)
Incredible video 😊💕✨
Thank you!!
Thank you I am going to Helsinki in September from Uk 🇬🇧
Lovely! Enjoy your trip to Helsinki! 🤩
@@MillaExplores I will thank you 🙏 you have a beautiful country
Thanks for the great tips @mila explores. Is the ferry ride to suomenlinna included in the day pass sold by HSL?
Yes it is! Suomenlinna can be reached with any HSL ticket. :)
Nice vedio& nice u.
Thank you Milla for sharing these tips and info, I have my flight booked on July 16th, and I’m planning on visiting Helsinki, Tampere, Turku and Porvoo. I’m a solo traveller and thinking to spend about 8 days in Finland. Any other cities you recommend me to consider during my trip ? Thanks again.
I'm so glad to hear that this was helpful! Awesome that you're traveling to Finland! I think you'll have plenty to do visiting Tampere, Turku, Porvoo, and Helsinki in 8 days. More places might be too much. Remember to visit Turun linna castle in Turku, and if you're in Tampere in the morning you can have a nice brunch at Cafe Pispala :)
👏👏👏
Is Helsinki on your list of places to visit, or have you already been to Helsinki? And btw, make sure to follow me on Instagram @millakatarinaaa if you want to see more stuff from me. 😊
Hi can I get an invitation from you..
Stupid question but can you have your phone with you in a sauna?
There are no stupid questions, right? 😆 But no, you shouldn't bring your phone to the sauna. Sauna is considered a peaceful space. I've also seen people in the US using the sauna in sports clothing which is also incorrect 🫢
Why can't you buy more than 2 tickets on HSL... I can't get my family to use that app
I have no idea 😅 Probably something you should contact HSL about 😊
My tip, don't come to helsinki in the spring time because it's so dirty. Or if you want to see one of the worlds dirtiest city then come but don't be shocked
Why?
WHAT??? I CANNOT HEAR YOU!!
Hi, I recommend turning up the volume if it's too low! 😇
@@MillaExplores or maybe next time turn on the microphone? I was watching videos before yours and the volume was just fine. I will also watch videos after yours so I don't want to get a stroke if I turn the volume up too much. Just a tip for your future video
@@TimorDa Thanks for the feedback. I use the Rode VideoMicro as my microphone, and it is always turned on. The microphone settings and distance can of course affect the sound.
The audio is fine for me
@@MillaExplores or maybe try speaking a little louder
What is that word you keep saying, sounds like "saw-na"? You mean "sow-na"? Come on, it's the one Finnish word everybody knows, but nobody pronounces correctly. Please help the world and pronounce it correctly as well.
Please, calm down. It’s sauna
Are you telling a Finnish person how to pronounce sauna? Definitely not sow-na 😂😂 but you do you!!
