Thanks guys
Dwayne's View
Part 2 out tomorrow guys :). Thanks for watching.
Real question is why not to have a sauna in burger king?
Haha that's a good point LOL
lol yea, sauna is life, so is good food!

Fun fact about snow; It may be cold on the surface, but it can also be really densly packed and thus, also act like a surprisingly great isolator. :) Space and drainage is very important for snow hotels though so you can keep yourself dry. Because it is the moisture from the melting water getting inside of your clothes which causes you to freeze to death, not the snow or ice in itself. :P You've also got to have something to isolate your body from the ice bedding though, typically an animal skin or pelt or several. Ingenius, really... Because it is these pelts which protects the animals from freezing to death in the winters.
Insulation is the stuff you use in buildings etc for keeping temperature. Isolation is being separated. Like sick people have to be isolated. Or you can isolate a particle.
and the most important thing when you build a snow structure, try to fart in there like it will surprise you.
That face when he sed even the beds are ice. Your face was priceless dude.
Santa doesn't live in the Santa Village. He lives in Korvatunturi, a fell in a remote location. The Santa Village in Rovaniemi is only his post office.
“Taken behind the sauna” means you’re getting executed. So … maybe not that one. 😅
Not executed but physically punished.
As a Finn I have never heard of this believe of coffee bubbles. 😮
And, have you already reacted to the trailer of the film named Sisu? It was released quite recently. 😅
The so called "pork sauce" is the best. The word actually translates to "fat sauce" because of the amount of fat in the pork belly. Cold-smoked pork belly is simply known as "fat" in Finnish common usage.
Anyway, the sauce itself is great. It's usually served on potatoes with pickles and crispy fried pork belly on the side. It's very easy to make too.
And no butter. That is milk fat and läskisoosi is about pork fat you get out of the pork.
@@elderscrollsswimmer4833 You're wrong: The base (Roux) has butter and flour. It doesn't use milk, but it uses butter.
@@D4rkstorn pork fat comes out when heated. You add flour to that. No butter.
@@elderscrollsswimmer4833 that won't make for a roux. A roux is made by heating flour and fat together until brown.
So what you're describing isn't läskisoosi but some kind of version without a proper base.
If you add pork to flour you get coated fried pork, not a roux.
@@D4rkstorn it is fat. Thing is you just need to extract it from pork first. Might as well brown the pork with it while you are at it.
The last British guy I saw this obsessed with Finland in YT ended up moving here. Tbf, his then-girlfriend, now-wife is Finnish.
Dave Cad, I presume...
6:42 I know this beach! The lake is alasenjärvi at city of lahti! I used to swim there as a kid a lot, and few times as adult too.
Sisu is literally similar to English words such as "inner", "inmost" and "interior, but the meaning is something like "inner willpower". Sisu is needed when all hope is lost, but you still try to fight against all odds.
Like the lack of research done about the pronounciations of the places lol
I was just thinking the same😂
Well, you can't expect perfect finnish pronunciations from english based ai voice
@@Physis_88 But you can ask how to pronounce......
@@bror8228 It is a AI voice, you can change the voice to Finnish if it is possible, but you just can't change pronunciations for en voice just like that.
don't ask why, ask why not?
i've never heard anyone eating a black sausage with doughnut.... Usually with lingonberry jam. Another, definitely interesting Finnish food is "Kuuma koira" which is literally "hot dog". But it isn't. It is Finnish "munkki", which is just differently shaped doughnut, with steamed sausage and filled with like everything you could put into a "lihapiirakka", onion, pickled cucumber, mustard, ketchup... Never tried it, but it is interesting. It's originally from Nokia. You probably know Nokia from other things.
In Finland, waterfowl are thrown with an old telephone, or there can be a competition to see who can throw the furthest.
There were NOKIA phones before.
01:18 Didn't know Vaasa had a name change.
first a trip with Petteri the red snout and in the evening you will enjoy Petteri on a plate as a stew.
Läski becomes bacon if you smoke it and it was cured. So its a bit like bacon, like the meat can be cured and even smoked but usually you buy it raw and slice it in a different way. I assume you can use any part but the preferred part is probably side pork because the fat and meat is layered better. I watched a video earlier that UK uses the pork back for bacon but I assume that works too if you leave the more meaty part for something else.
We dont eat black pudding with the sweet thing(doughnut?)
6:35 There is no Burger King sauna anymore, it was closed few years ago.
That sausage picture was fin humor. Sausage, lingonberry and a donut.
Like when I saw that picture my first thought was a annoyed wife and a giggling man.
There are saunas even in ice hockey arenas!
12:50 At the village you can meet Santa everyday of the year and it has it's own post office aswell.
If you send a letter or post card to Santa from anywhere in the World, it will end up to that Santa village in Rovaniemi which was described in the video. Yearly they receive around 500 000 letters from 200 countries
1:55 there was just lately a news about someone walking path like this one and who got there up ahead of him/her? yes, a wolf :D thought it was lone wolf, they very rarely do anything but run away but if there was more wolfs around then u would be ded
There a recently released movie called Sisu which tells a story about one man's sisu - you might want to check the trailer out..
Like is this a Fin thing when you are so used to the surroundings that all that I saw was the shaking ass of that reindeer :D
Being in a snow hotel would bother me cause i dbe too wurried bout it collapsing awhile sleeping thats my thing. But would go in and check it out and sit but never stay over night
If you ever visit finland i suggest going to lapland in the late or early winter as mid winter has so many tourists that places like Rovaniemi, joulumaa (the place where santa lives) is hard to navigate. Late winter is maybe the best time to visit finland. Not early spring tough as the snow gets wet and it's still cold.
No there’s no donuts with blood sausage
the burger king sauna was in one place and it was removed back in 2021 so it ran something like 6 years but it was apparently not that popular i mean the thing cost 250€ to rent for 3h (300 on weekends) and that price did not include anything to eat but it included a conference space for 15 people with TV in there...
Angry Birds company is called Rovio not Revio lol, Rovio is like campfire but bigger :) like ''Polttakaa noidat roviolla'' :D thanks for good vid again :) I'm learning new things again as Finnish :D I think Lappi is most beautiful place on Finland
So you didn't like the meat or fat part? Im guessing by the you explained it in english you like the fatty bits in the pork pieces if i understand right.
@@user-dg3io4px6n Yeah the fat part cos it was almost pure fat :s
@@_CuddlyBunny_ hellyeah i thought i had that right but had too ask to make sure i had that right.
@@_CuddlyBunny_ like dad always sed fatty part has the most flavour.
@@user-dg3io4px6n my grandma always made that sauce when we visited at hers when I was a kid and she always made that food and left the meat as fatty as possible and it just made me nauseous 😅 some ppl love it but I haven't ever got it down lol , other one is livee sauce, never again 😂
The Burger King with a sauna happened thusly: the space was previously used by a sports-bar/restaurant, that had the sauna put in, and when Burger King rented it, they decided to keep it. I'm not sure if you get your meal delivered to the changing room or not, or if you have to fetch it from upstairs yourself (It's in the basement, where there is also additional seating). Source: participated in a stag-do that rented the sauna from before it became a Burger King.
The sauna is no more, it was closed few years ago.
He said that the contest is popular meaning there are people participating from those countries. Not that it is popular inside those countries.
Blood pancakes and blood sausages must be eaten with lingonberries. I think in the video the donut was a dessert.
If you want to have a reindeer sledge ride, you just have to come to Northern Finland during the winter. Here are several companies which do reindeer sledge rides. You also get to pet the reindeers. If you book a visit to a reindeer farm, you propably get to feed them too.
Not a donut, a munkki. A donut is usually glazed with a sugary cream and a munkki has just sugar
@@nikkari5780 donut can be without glacing too. Munkki is a Finnish word and it doesn't have specific translation in English.
Munkki is a Finnish doughnut. Not much different.
@@jennifer1329 munkki usually has kaardemumma which a donut doesn't.
Why in Finland Burger King has a sauna here usa we don’t have a sauna burger king
Yes, läskisoosi all that.
Finland didn't gain its independence from Sweden, the region that is now Finland was the eastern part of Sweden proper until it was taken by Russia in the war of 1808-1809 and incorporated into the Russian empire as a Grand Duchy, it later gained its independence from Russia in the aftermath of WWI and the Russian revolution.
The Seven flowers as well as the spider/rain thing is a shared belief with Sweden (for reasons above) and St John's night is Midsummer eve
Pork sauce is a very traditional Swedish dish as well and it's really hearty food
The forest fact I really don't get what he has looked at:
1 Finland 73.73
2 Sweden 68.69
3 Montenegro 61.49
Then:
Finland is the most heavily forested country in the EU. More than 75% of Finland's land area is covered by forests. The annual growth of forests exceeds the harvested volumes. In 2022, about 72 % of the annual growth was harvested.
Oh my god the pronunciations...
It sounds like the narrator isn't even trying.
The pronunciation of that AI voice is horrible on 99% of those Finnish words/names.
Also, please understand that the pronounciation of Finnish words in this video is at the level of 2010 TTS and sounds completely ridiculous 😂
I think Dwayne actually noticed that, I thought he pronounced quite many of them better than the "narrator."
What do you mean WHY there is a sauna in burger king? I don't understand the question. Why wouldnt there be a sauna in a burger king?
:)
No, we dont eat black sausage with donuts.
There's a simple reason for the Mobile phone throwing championship event to exist. How else would you find out who throws it farthest?
Apocryphally, the Lumia phone was a reason for the re-emergence of the competition. Finnish people wanted to find out, how fast they could throw the phones back at Microsoft.
Aggghhhh. Sorry, I couldn't get further than 5:30 in this one. The canned voice-over was driving me insane. Like you listening to a 'facts about the UK' video where they visit the capital, 'Lendaan' and the northern cities of 'Munchaster' and Luverpeel', and the ancient Viking capital of 'Yark'...
No one eats blacksausage with a donut.
not every Burgen King
If you have hangover, we say, Sillä lähtee millä on tullukkin, It shoulld takag that c joo en osaa laittaa lontoolla, it should taking off that coming in?😂 auttakaa, miten tämä menee lontooksi?
"It leaves with whatever it came with." Hair of the dog, basically. Really bad advice. Don't use more booze to cure your hangover, surefire way to become an alcoholic.
On an unrelated note, a morning after beer is called "korjaussarja," or "repair kit" in Finland.
i only hate the way he/it (ai?) speaks on the vid.... the finnish words are totallywrong lol
Yeah, the narrator could have asked somebody how to pronouce those place names and words in Finnish.
@@Susirajantakaa yes, also in the map "vaasa" reads "vaase" like what? u could check that in a second but no...
Ya it's AI created video all over. AI voice and AI script.
@@lordoverflow those suck!
Only say finland when i speak to a American
English i should say even uk english anything english
Those pronounciations in the video are extremely horrible:(
