To really rub in the finnish water quality, 99% of the time the tap water has even less bacteria than the bottled water. And it is the same water used in shower and in toilet. Finland has so much clean water it just doesnt matter, easier to run just one line of perfect water and use it for everything. 100.000+ lakes makes for unlimited groundwater so you just have to take care of it, a gift from mother nature.
To clarify, the coffee isn't free. It's the refill, and only if you buy your first cup, and sit down there. Coffee is usually included in lunchbuffé and free refills. So, you can't enter a café and have a free coffee. Many workplaces have free coffee for the "fika" breaks during the workday, but sometimes there is a small fee or a collect jar.
In Finland, the 2 doors room in the entrance is to put your dirty-snowy shooses off befor to get in the living part of the house. In winter it is also a place where you put off your winter jacket, wett umbrela or anything that could make the floor durty. In freesing cold, it is also a buffer place for the transition between freesing cold outside (-20 , -30 C) to the +20-25C inside.
There is also many springs (place where water emerges from the ground) all around in Finland from which you can drink from. Also in the northern parts of Finnish Lapland you can drink straight from the rivers and lakes in lots of places.
5:15 A lot of people specifically collect Moomin-mugs, in Finland, as well; and 1 Moomin-mug (Fazer) actually got sold, for 15000€. That’s 15, followed by 3 0’s. 😮😅
Funny thing, about silence, it can be hard for foreigners. There have been cases when tourists must have left the country in the middle of their vacation because they have used to noise from the streets and so on but f.ex. in Lappland there can be totally silent at night and they can't sleep at all :) About coffee, there can be free refills (after you buy the first cup) but also it can be half price, it depends of the place. About water, tap water actually is VERY clean. It is so clean that it doesn't taste anything. Some foreigners think that the missing taste can be weird :)
In all Nordic countries I think we have a common proverb : "There is no bad weather, only bad clothing", of course meaning just dress for the weather and keep doing what needs to be done... In Europe (at least in EU) red traffic lights means stop. Simple rules without exceptions makes for fewer accidents. Drivethrough coffee... Most people fill a thermos mug before going to the car... And also - I think MacDonalds serve coffee in their drivethroughs...?
Swede here.(similar country) The 2 doors are for keeping the cold outside maybe? The scary people are not in the forest but in the cities. Who drinks soda for lunch and dinner?? You don´t find stillwater because you can drink the tap water! When you drink coffee you sit down at a cafe not in your car! You can still get coffee(kind of) at Mcd drivethrough
In Finland, you can also drink tap water from toilets in bars, shops and petrol stations, for example. It's exactly the same as at home. Even the water used to flush the toilet seat is the same water.
When I was a kid in the 1960s we used to go rowing a lot and when we got thirsty we just drank straight from the lake. Nobody ever got sick so I guess the water was clean enough. 😊 But I wouldn't do it today!
Our wastewater at home first flows through the sewer system to the sewage treatment plant, where it undergoes several complex cleaning processes. The purified water is then returns to the natural water cycle: it flows back into nature, from which we obtain our drinking water. There it is then drawn back by our waterworks and cleaned for our household.
That muumi character on that cup is only 1 / about 100 different muumi character there is,those r wery famous in finland and japan,that character on that cup is called Niiskuneiti,Snorkmaiden on english.
The water in the tap is more clean in Scandinavia than in a bottle. So it makes sense. In Finland, because of the Ice age, we have hundreds of thousands of lakes (perhaps over a million, just look at Google-maps) and we have fresh water (that refills) for over 8 billion people. In Lapland u can drink from a river.. And we have a lot of those natural springs also. At the Alps in Europe, like in many parts of Switzerland, they have a constant running water. It's rly cool :D
Why would you need a drive-in coffe in Finland? There are coffe in every house, every shops, at work..... everywhere. In Finlande, we are not using cars for everything, we can walk. And we have coffe thermos.
5:01 You guys collect mugs? Well, then there's pretty many mugs to choose from for you/to collect. 😆 I think I have maybe about 20 different Moomin mugs that are on the commonly found side. Moomin mugs are collectors items, so as a fair warning, they can be pricey.. I have gotten some of mine when on sale and few as a Christmas gift. 😂 11:36 In the summer withthe midnight sun, you just need really good blinds or blackout curtains (like I do) and it's not then that hard. I imagine it would take lots of time to get used to, but, otherwise I think it should be fine. 😊 14:39 I have to disagree here. I admit, I don't drink coffee or tea (at all). But from what I see around me, most definitely not everywhere is free refills for coffee. I guess it's safe to say that it depends on the place where you're at. Not just the fact wether you're in the Capital city area or in some smaller cities or villages or towns... But also individual cafes, restaurants and their own way to do things. 18:35 Bandaids can be found and bought from stores usually, some have more options than others. Or then maybe just have bad luck and they are sold out. Or if you get too picky and don't want to buy the only one they have and it happens to be 'kids'/kids bandaid with some characters on them. 😂 Wishing you guys a great day. 😊 💚
Those "mumin" figures on her coffee mug are not called "moomin" but "mumin troll". Tove Jansson, who invented the Moomins, wrote in her mother tongue Swedish. Her books were later translated into Finnish, English, Japanese etc. This particular figure is called "Snorkfröken".
For a Finn, the streetlife culture in Brazil is so enjoyable. The ease of going about your life, not needing to know what's what behind closed doors is very relaxing to me. Be prepared that Finland, even Helsinki, might look like a ghost town to you at points.
Left side traffic and your right side is full of blind spots. Might be more practical, sometimes i feel so stupid to wait for a green light even when i'm walking and there's no cars in a sight. :D Weird thing might be that cars actually wait to you crossing a road even they don't have to, mostly. And when here is so dark and icy roads so many months in a year it's better to be safe than sorry.
We don´t have drive through coffee shops because we can work our own coffee at home. And every tap water in Finland is Pure Water from our Nature without any additives.
She has misunderstood a few things in this video, not by much, but still. The coffee for example sometimes (used to be the norm back in the 90s and before) has an "ilmainen santsikuppi" basically meaning "one free refill". This does not mean unlimited free refills. Also, you will always need to ask whether it is included or not, same for coffee, if it is or isn't included in the lunch (more and more often it isn't) Free refills for soda are actually rather common in Finland, and available at pretty much every buffet menu
Moomins mugs are made in stone ceramic, meaning that it holds warm and cold and best part is, it makes cold milk taste better..😊 If you really collecting mugs,this would be dream for you.. The reason why we in Finland has strong taste for Finnish design and brands, Support local and quality..❤ Comparing our sodas to from America, ours doesnt have slots of shit. Less sugar the in America and made on real juice from fruits..Okay, its not Healty to drink, but better then American soda ..
If you go for a walk in the forest, remember to look at the details of the forest, and what it looks like there, bushes, ditches, stones, trees, 80% of the land is forest, and it's easy to get lost, so look around carefully until you know the forest, if you get lost, stay where you are, please in some square where you can be found more easily, and before you go there in the forest, tell someone that you are going there.
A drive through coffee bar... Hmm... I wouldn't buy my coffee from them, I want to relax, have a quiet moment and really enjoy my coffee. I wouldn't drink coffee in a car, in a hurry to make it on time for work. But I'm not judging at all, our cultures are just so different!
we have to pay for our water, it comes in taxes and there often is water bill in your rent or you have to pay for it regardless, but usually it is next to nothing that we pay already.
Well, if we just stayed in the house every time the weather is bad or cold, Finland as a country would shut down for over half of the year. We have learned to live with it, but many of us don't like the climate very much and tens of thousands of Finns, especially retired people, live in southern Europe for most of the year, for example Spain is popular.
In forrest, you must know what berries and mushrooms you can eat or use cooking. There is many mushrooms and some berries are poison. We have proverb. You can eat all mushrooms, but only once ;)
Usually, no foreigner makes such a video about Finland or Estonia without talking about the sauna culture. Perhaps, for some Americans it's too much even for talking about it? Lol
What the hell is happening in Brazilian forests when it's not safe to go there? o.O -I mean yeah I get that there are venomous snakes and spiders etc. but otherwise it should be perfectly safe, right? :/
Unfortunately Finland is no longer the place it used to be and the future doesn't look good either due to agressive righwing populist politics. Sad, but true.
Do you have to? I'm starting to get tired of this left-wing complaint about every tweet. So childish and stupid. We have a democracy and a government voted by the majority.

Correct. Average Finnish tap water has proven to be cleaner than Evian.

And same pure water on shower also. On any tap you find in Finland. Purer than some bottlet water

Many places ( lunch ) in Finland offer milk, buttermilk, water, juice and homebeer.
In Finland, you can also drink tap water from toilets in bars, shops and petrol stations, for example. It's exactly the same as at home. Even the water used to flush the toilet seat is the same water.
Somewhere in the world it is considered a waste of clean water, flush the toilet seat the same clean water.
@@pvahanen-dh5rt Yes, but on the other hand, building two different water systems is costly.
And wash our cars
@@penaarja 😄
You really shouldn't drink from the toilet like a dog! xD Yeah I got what you meant, but still!! xD
The quality of tap water and air in Finland is the best in the world.
no its not

Free coffee refills are usually available in Sweden as well.

well made bathroom floors are bit slanted in the drain, so water won't stay on tiles. it's still good if you have that cleaning tool.
