Oh dear, hope you wont be head putting more walls. Are you coming to Pori?

Hi Matt. I am glad that you presented world’s biggest wooden church. Forgetting Lapland and its free roaming reindeer is impossible. White nights is such an experience, which stay in mind the resto of life! Lapland is something special in Finland. The real Lapland starts from the Arctic Circle to the North. The area is wide and it hides many awesome surprises. Your idea to forget Lapland is mission impossible now and later. Happy travel. Matti

😊

Visit Pulkkilanharju. It is as nice. Some ppl think it is the most beautiful scenery in Finland.

Hello. We lived in Mkkeli few years ago. Have a good day. Matti

Please drink tap-water! Perfectly safe and save money 🙂

My childhood scenery. Thx! 😊

Please do not came to Finland. We want to live in peace here. No tourist here!

Ah yes. The famous Japanese anarchist area. Punk a haya. Was it a bunny at the end? It didn't look like rabbit or a hare. They have spread like a... bunnies.

You are doing amazing work. I love these scenes.

Thanks for another insightful video! One thing about Hamina to add to your story. It has been quite important town for Finnish military for more than 100 years. It has been the place for Reserve Officer´s School for a long time. Most of the reserve officers are trained there, still. I myself spent there more than half a year during my compulsory military service. The military museum is next to the garrison gates.

I have to agree on that. I have lived and traveled in the lake district for what, like 25 years or something and there is still lot to see and explore. I think it is one of the best places in Finland. OK, my tips for Finland, besides the lake district: Ahvenanmaa/Åland archipelago, coastal cities Hanko and Kaskinen, Hailuoto, some parts of Lapland, old mills of which Fiskars and Billnäs are the most famous.

It is very unusual for a visitor to go to these "normal" places in Finland. It has been fun to watch so far.

You need to buy some protein

Oh man. The tallest tree sure would be a long moment of admirarion for me.

Good to hear your misadventure was so quick. Those doorways really keep you humble, eh?

i love ur videos<3 :) greetings from Joensuu, Finland!

Do you only eat trash? No real food?!

Yay, my sister got married in the smaller section of the largest 😂 (1:56 on the right in the woods)

Two and a quarter-hour drive north.. Koli National Park?

I'm really enjoying following your Travels through Finland. Thanks for sharing.

Nice video again! It was a pity that Kerimäki church was closed. Did you know that there are 27 places that have been defined as national landscapes of Finland? Punkaharju is unsurprisingly one of them, but you have already seen several others too. You may remember that before changing to Euro in 2002 Finland had markka as its currency. On the backside of 500 FIM banknote of the last series used there was a drawing of Punkaharju.

Finland better kick the frontlines back into working order. Karelia is calling for liberation.

Glad you didn't let a little bloody head ruin your trip. Fanta is the most important supply for the road trip! That is an impressive tree!

Another entertaining video. Thank you for this. May i say one CON in my books? Mostly during scenery shots where music plays the music is quite loud compared to rest of video. This is only small improvement (imo). Other than that content is top notch! narrative is very interesting, calm and clear. Very pleasent experience overall. Now i´m of to sauna😌.

Those larches are planted for ship masts. Those are very durable trees in that purpose

Absolutely. The nature is most gorgeous, people friendly and the pace of life slower.

Great to see some familiar sights.

Beautiful area with gorgeous scenery! I'm always amazed by the combination of forest and water. Thanks for sharing 🙏😊 ~Philip

Hello Matt. How are you? I arrived back in Dubrovnik on Wednesday (from Pretoria where I’d been the previous 11 weeks). Here at club Med, the temperatures have been soaring. On Friday we already had the first major power outage. Today, a scrub fire up the hill behind Dubrovnik. The point of the above ramble is that visiting places like Finland are more and more appealing. (In fact in yesterday’s Times travel section there were 25 cool climate summer holiday recommendations and one of them was the lake region in Finland…I’m sure The Times’ writer borrowed from your uploads). The lighting and the long shadows in your videos augment the scenery. Glad you were able to recover from the knock on your head and continue to enjoy your journey. Until next week Zoltán

I cannot believe that people allowed the original cavern to get demolished!!

I have visited Punkarock rock festivals in Punkaharju as teen at Midsummers 1979-83. Seen Motörhead and Bad Manners there, among many other bands.

Great video.👍🇫🇮👍

Famous Finnish author Arto Paasilinna located Heaven (at least God´s administrational office) at Kerimäki church. Finland's wealth has become from two sources: 1) Producing and selling forrest industry products to Great Britain. 2) Producing and selling metal industry products to Russia.

So true. As Finn I agree

The main thing is to learn to pronounce Finnish names :)

Первый ! :)

Why the mask

The snp have screwed these islands over businesses have been destroyed these businesses depend on tourism and yet the snp don’t care .where is the compensation to these islands

i came here in 1980s as a kid too lol

I don't know your route, but i recommend visiting Ylistaro as it has nicely beautiful old architecture and nature, and its nicely near cities like Seinäjoki and Vaasa! Currently on midsummer drive with family visiting here myself and i think you'd enjoy a nice drive by this place

That chairlift ride looked really harrowing😅, but the views seem rather lovely.

Well done video. Consider Wikipedia as a source before doing these pieces. You'll save time and face!

Which is the song playing background I want to close my eyes and go back

if you are geocaching, there is a virtual cache by the Olavinlinna. :) hopefully you took a picture of yourself by the castle :)

The "consultation fee" applies to citizens also. You pay it once per year, when you go in (you don't have to pay it then, they send you a bill with two weeks to pay it). So if you go in again, you don't pay again, until next january. Not sure if you, Matt, would need to pay it again. Probably their system (which is all connected, and that's why there's no form-filling) will have your payment logged, and then if you need the cut taken a look at, they won't take another 40€ off you. Hope so. Last time I had to go in the "stand by" department, which is a kind of low-stakes ER, where people go when they've broken an arm, or hurt their head (I guess you were at that department of Savonlinna system). I had to go to that in a country town, because I'd developed a severe eye infection, and then I go in there, talk to the receptionist, then wait until the two people before me were checked (which took about half an hour), then doctor looks at my eye for about twenty seconds, then walks away saying I can go straight to the pharmacy, he'll immediately send the digital prescription for aseptic eye-drops. Very fast and smooth. Just a few years ago, a much less practical system was in use.

I drive that road always when I have the change. Its Beautiful.

How long ago was this video filmed? 3-4 years?
