Very innovative way to advertise. Don't know are you original but thats just great!

Love this so much 🤣

Me too but a bird made me trip and fall because i only see lokki

We love our sienis so much that going mushroom picking has its own verb sienestää as in let's go sienestään

@Hardcoreleftist We have one of the strongest Psilocybe Semilanceatas here..

Hä?

Sounded like perfectly good and drunk to me.

Testament to his greatness right there, 'cause he didn't really speak any Finnish at all. The only actual words other than the swearing were 'voi' and 'kaskelotti'. 'Sumalainen' was probably an attempt at Suomalainen though.

He did great on "Perkele", one of the hardest words to get right

@@pekkajarvinen69 It is sad because one time the Finnish comedian Ismo did a U.S. tour and after the show he did a brief meet and greet with fans to which I went up to him and said "The only Finnish word I know is Perkele" to which he smiled and said "Oh yes that's a great word"

This is exactly what my mother had to do. People may think that what you see in this video is a joke, but it is not!

@@toinenprofessori771 all white laundry that was usually woven from home-grown flax or store-bought cotton fabric was boiled in hot water, birch ash lye was used as a detergent, which was usually made at home because many could not afford to buy ready-made in the store of course soap made from tallow was used for all other clothing

@@JainMonroe I'm an immigrant to Finland fascinated by Finnish history and rustic old style living. I'd love to know more about this. I learned recently about the dugouts filled with ice cut from lakes in winter used for water and refrigeration in summer. amazing ingenuity

@@IK-wc4od everything is based on the fact that warm water opens the fabric fibers and cold water closes them, and often after a cold rinse, the garment was ironed with a hot iron, which pressed the fibers tightly and thus the garment became more dirt-repellent

@@IK-wc4od and e.g. woolen clothes or woolen household goods were not washed continuously only if it was very dirty, therefore under all woolen clothes a shirt made of either cotton or linen fabric was kept. which protected the outer garment from sweat and body secretions and woolen clothes or products were washed in the snow, i.e. they were taken outside in the winter to cool off and thus a cold woolen product was washed with snow, i.e. it was spun in the snow. if the woolen product was warm, it absorbed moisture from the snow and thus became wet.

Muovipullo what are you doing here?

Not all of them you cannot

Have you been into a real forest picking mushrooms or just read IL or IS. Yes there are good years when everyone can find em and there's bad years when only the ones with experience of the area knows, places change according to rainfall and heat and the greed of the forest plot owner(like a money producing forest dries up and can make a huge area not even worth going into). Nuuksio is a protected area for the city people to visit what they see as a real forest but the reality around Finland is that maybe 30 years ago you could find stupid amounts everywhere but today you can walk 20km without finding more than a few because of the ditches and clearing of trees so that the wind dries the forest. I did pick one year 60+l of blackhorn mushrooms in an area that I would never imagine could have em but visited the same place 3 years later and found only 0.5l(I know how to spot if someone else has been there before me and that was not the case, it was the golf course that they made bigger that dried up the area). To get 2-3 buckets of blueberries is a pain when as a child even I managed to pick half a bucket in the time my parents got 3 of em filled. Funnel wafer mushrooms do grow in huge fields usually when you find em so if the forest is healthy like Nuuksio even I stumbled on em there when just visiting the place but the terrain is nasty to pick em in but for the rest of Finland it probably gets worse and worse to find those fields if you do not live next to a protected area. Point, the amount is not stupid in Finnish forests. Its stupid in untouched/protected ones and those are few in today's greedy world. Its not only greed, also the sick +30 degree periods do damage to the forests. What do I know, I have only been picking em for 35years in 5 different towns/cities but I do know that most fins will never see a real forest(I was lucky enough to visit one 15 years ago but it is gone now, it was old and you felt its "greatness" when you entered it but its gone now and it was only a 300mx300m area back then).

@@amadeuz8161 I'm a lucky one, I live in spain, next to a tiny (50mx50m) forest, and found fox boletus (haavanpunikkitatti jos oikein tunnistin, mut punikkitatti se on) there, lot's or them. Not enough to sell but enough to eat them every day. And it is literally next to me, I take 5 steps from my front door and I'm inside the forest. I hope I can harvest them for until the spring.

Yoooo, Muovipullo

This is a great ideat! Should be frustratingly difficult for Dave and superbly entertaining for us

Absolutely YES for this!

Almost the same story that i have but ..not just quite. I didn't go to Kouvola, i went to Kuopio. I didn't pick up a cat, i picked up a rescue doggo. And it was kinda interesting, not really dreary and depressing. But I was there for around 30 minutes and ive only been there once! But the whole 400 + 400 km car ride was something I never wanna experience again. It was spent in the backseat of a super drafty and leaky Honda Civic, during the first snowfall which was a blizzard driven with summer tyres and as the car's heater for the air conditioning decided to break down, the dog realized it's going far from home and a heartbreaking piercing sorrowful solo chorus theme song for the whole experience began. That lasted for 3 hours.. But the old grandma doggo is fine now :) giving her scratches from everyone.

@@Litepaw Nice, at least about the doggo. Coincidentally I also went for a very brief visit to Kuopio to pick up a car with a friend, but our ride was significantly more pleasant. We got to see the beauty that is Päijänne in perfect winter weather and we stopped by this pretty cool place called Bus Burger in Lahti to eat as well.

@@notyourdadI know that place! And ah yes.. Lahti. I was on a festival trip last summer and had a quick stop to eat there on the way back home. Also had a quick stop in Mikkeli for the first time in my whole life.

Oh and I'd love to see Saimaa during winter.. that's a bucket list thing

Also Jonna does have some roots from Finland so there is a bit finn in her heritage.

@@tapio7133 I didn't know that. Nice 👌

Exactly. In the cold you can put on a warm sweater, wrap yourself in a blanket, drink something hot... Can't do much in the heat if you're already naked in front of a fan and still melting. And I have naturally low blood pressure so any heat has me super dizzy and weak so I'm always a total zombie in the summer.

True. Everybody thinks now there are no washing machines in Nordic countries.

Of course. They are brainwashed to think Finland started the war which is not true. Actually nobody won the war. Finland lost it and Soviet-Russia lost it as well. There are only losers in wars.

The second one is Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz) from "Inglourious Basterds" (2009).

She is swedish and lives in sweden

True. Ppl in other countries must think there are no washing machines in Nordic countries.

Bloody hell, it is "kuka", not "ketä". Some people do not know their own language. I cannot tell, how much I hate this.

@@toinenprofessori771 Both of you are wrong. It's "joka" kuuseen kurkottaa, or "ken" more rarely. The earliest known version of the expression had neither.

@@Yoarashi I did not mean to refer to the phrase itself but to the fact that many people say "ketä" when one should say "kuka". You are right, the phrase should be "Joka kuuseen..."

And don't forget to buy some Kouvolan lakritsi 😂

Kouvolan lakritsi is the worlds best licorice. Its said that Kouvola is the licoricecapital of the whole world.

Veturi is another misleading finnish word since käteen = "in the hand", veturi = "locomotive", but käteen veturi = (something completely different).

Mrs Cad is a Swedish speaking Finn so Finnish is poor Dave's 3rd language

@@mostlyminx that explains the perfect pronounce really, used the hangout with swedishfinn when i was kid, didnt learn much tho

Reddit? "New"?

I've lived in Finland for nearly 5 years 👍
