The advantage of the taxation comes obvious if you get sick, need to school your kids, need public transportation, need day care while at work, Zero homeless, no beggars and 100% literacy. Yes, dark winters are the negative side but new activities are being installed with lights which helps.
Wikipedia is 100% better translator for Finnish language then google translator. Because it gives you the correct context as well. It is a great idea to check wikipedia as well when looking for the correct translation and see if they have Finnish translated page as well. They you are 100% sure it is the correct translation in the same context. ps. This tip also works amazingly well for Japanese as well
Thank you for the video, you have such a great attitude when facing challenges in this country! I was expecting or hoping to hear about your experiences with regards to racism in Finland, but perhaps that is a difficult subject to talk about. I do hope that you have been treated fairly.
1. Learn to understand first and then try to learn to speak(don't try both at the same time because speaking is harder and a lot easier when you understand what you say). Might even be smart to start writing it before speaking. 2. You haven't met me yet I'm a fin and speak with everyone(usually old people and they have a lot to say) but you need to learn to read them if they want to speak(Then when they see you they might think, ohno do I have to speak english because if they knew my mother tongue was swe they might do the same or if its a guy you make em shy). 3. That's why you try to find someone during the summer so you can cuddle in the candle light during the dark time :D 4. Finding jobs got a lot harder after that we got those "vuokrafirma" bloodsuckers, before there was information in papers and other public places, you were even able to walk into a company and ask at their info desk. Now you need contacts, schools have at least names of companies that could hire a person with this or that profession. Stay away from the "vuokrafirma" if possible because that usually just ends up as short jobs here and there or then a long term without having the same benefits as those that were employed by the company. 5. The taxes are for your own good. We pay a lot but when times are hard our country takes care of us, so if its not a must don't try to go around it because you are just digging your own pit to a worse society by doing that.
Interested....I would love to visit so I came across your comment when I was almost losing giving up...am searching a country to visit..Am from Botswana 🇧🇼
thanks - if you are having trouble staying warm in the winter, lightweight long underwear is the thing - some of the high tech materials currently available are really amazing, and will eliminate your basic coldness and have you feeling comfortable...
This is so true. The answer is "kerrospukeutuminen" (many layers of clothes, not just one thick one) And cover your head! Thats where most heat goes off... :) Even if it messes up your hair :D
@@manu_bdl9333 - not really - just have to dig around online...- once I bought a super super thin top, possibly at big 5, that had incredible heat retaining properties, but I could never find it again... :)
I was published this content already to your previous You Tube video but I will do this again in here because I'm not sure how do you follow of these comments. Okay you just got one more subscriber in to your channel ;-) You have very interesting content in here from your feelings to move in Finland, tips and tens but I'm very curious your roots from Nigeria. From your family day to day life in Nigeria with your family before you moved here. Day to day life here in Finland and good things and problems that which you have come across here. From your job here in Finland and your friends and your profession and study in Tampere city and so on ... You will get much more of content to your You Tube site from this way and maybe publish new video ones a week here and then you will get more of followers. I’m excited to wait for more content to your your channel. Regards old dude from Finland :-)
I think the language, degree and skills are the key for white collar job or almost any job. Learn the language and start using it as soon as possible. I know so many people here from other countries who know only basic phrases in finnish and then they wonder why they can’t get a job. Of course there are some low paid jobs you can find and manage to do with very basic finnish, but not white collar ones or anything where you need to be able to communicate in finnish or swedish. Dark is hard for some of us too, so we often use these bright light lamps to give us energy in the morning.
Hi, I am thinking to move to finland, like to come there and find a job, as I have a bit of previous experience, and I am from an english speaking country, how much is the possibility and chances to land a job, having a degree in another European country.
It is NOT the happiest place on Earth ! The Happiness Report does not measure the happiness of individuals. It measures how safe the country is, social security and other similar things. In Finland many people suffer from social isolation and depression.
As a finn i can say, majority of us welcome you (assholes in every country?). But its not a dreamland if you just want to benefit of what we have. If you want to work and can stand dark winters, WELCOME! 😍
At least one immigrant who doesn't claim that more immigrants should make Finland more "friendly" for non-Finns. It's hard to bear when strangers question your culture, even though they came to the country because of the better living conditions.
I might move to turku for my master's studies, and honestly i'm really not looking forward to the super cold winters and especially regarding the super long nights... Any tips to make going through finnish winters easier? I'll take whatever you have lol
@@naijafinlandgirlThat’s true, Finland’s weather can be challenging. For me, it was particularly difficult. I moved from the south of Sweden to Turku for my studies, but after two years, I had to give up and cancel my studies. The long and cold winters were too much for me to handle. I initially moved for a girl, but I could never connect with the Finnish people and culture. It’s sad because, otherwise, Finland is a good country. Unfortunately, it just wasn’t the right fit for me. I learned a couple of words in Finnish though, it was super tough getting a job under summer so find one in Sweden instead. Now living in Denmark, much more happy and better climate
Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos, felicidades por tus vídeos.
Is it possible to get job with a short stay visa. Like a one month tourist visa in order to extend your stay. You know our aim is not to visit but to stay. So what's the possibility of getting a job that willake you to stay in Finland before your one month elaps .

Over 3,000 homeless in 2023.

If someone "hopes" to hear something about racism - is he a misanthropist then?

Do you guys have any particular brand in mind good at providing such clothes?

Thanks for the updates dear,i just want to ask if you travelled to Finland would you be allowed to study the language again
Mam please make video about jobs for international students ☺️
I'm American born. Wondering about life in Finland. How welcoming are the Finnish?

Hello
Can you move to another EUROPEAN COUNTRY that is more to your liking like Spain or Portugal?
Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con la familia y los amigos, felicidades por tus vídeos.
Hola ! My Friend IS at Peru at The moment and sending me alot lot photos - about The sun & weather ! Look like GREAT Country !
You were changing jobs in Nigeria. Wow
surprising.. when to even get one is so hard.
Is it possible to get job with a short stay visa.

Hello, how're you doing?
❤️
Thanks for this information
Please, how is the job employment for foreigners
You need to speak the language and mostly get underpaid jobs such as cleaning.
i feel like the younger generation of Finland is going to completely change that country. Attribute this to globalization.
Finnish is not in itself a difficult language - all those videos are about language hard for English speakers.
You Have to be able - to learn ! Younger You are - faster Your brain works ! Some learn the suomi language in one year !
Finnish is very hard for every adult person from other languagefamily (majority of planet).
@@kessu27 No.
@@toinenosoite3173 YES
If they can speak English how is that more difficult when you already speak English?? You want them to understand you, don't you?
More difficult to learn finnish : less opportunities to practice/might not feel as motivated to try hard (I suppose)
Why you didn’t mention that you can learn Swedish instead of finish. And the job part is total BS.
Good look baby girl 👌
