- Hi guys! On my way home from Scotland to Seoul, I had a 19 hour layover in Helsinki. I've always wanted to visit Finland so I thought I'd get a tiny taste of it before I plan a proper trip back someday. I was amazed at how much I could get done in Helsinki!!

Lol i didnt fill in the description box and cant fix it until I’m home in 4 days so pls forgive me!! I love you helsinki, cant wait to come back to finland and really experience the country 🥰
I wish I could pack as lightly as you did! That was a hand carry luggage right?
Olsie Asum yes i always try to carry on only :) during my trip in scotland the places we stayed had laundry machines so i was able to pack light and just wash my clothes!!
Well come to my country enjoy your time. Thank very much.
If you want to see beautiful and colourful nature then i suggest that you go late september to the norther part of Finland.
Sometime come see other parts of our country too. :)
It’s really refreshing to see helsinki from a tourist perspective since for me it’s such a normal sight
Its gorgeous!!

"Olavi! Tuolla o SilijaLine! :D" The kid being so exited about seeing a ship.
Thank you, this video cheered me up so much!
I love how you explore cities! Can you maybe make a video on how you prepare for a city? (Like how you plan) would love to see that!
Yes please!
I am so disorganized with it but i will try to work on making it understandable hahahha
You came in Helsinki just the right time. After that day it has been raining literally everyday. Typical finnish autumn weather but you avoided it :D Next time if you come, visit autumn or winter time in Lapland for couple days, it's totally different in the north!
Im soso happy i got a perfect day to explore!
That's what I thought. I was there the next week and it rained the whole time... still beautiful.
There is now -30°C
@@viulunsoittaja2404 wow -30 degree. really?
Hi, are you from Finland? What is the weather at the end of march and the beginning of april? I expect its cold but is it raining or snowing? :)
As a local, I feel that you captured Helsinki amazingly in your video, and in such a short time too! Glad you had a good time here :)
Thank you so much!
you just made me realize how much i love my hometown
🙏🙏🙏
i feel like helsinki fits you so well for some reason? you seemed so content and relaxed and made my terribly stressed little self miss helsinki at the same time, so good job you! 💌 hope your brief stay was as nice as it seemed!! 🍃📚☕
Heheh it was really lovely!! I hope to come back soon!
I feel it fits Cari really well too! =D So "at home" hahaha!
I was thinking the same thing! :D I noticed that you were more like us calm finns! Sometimes people from other countries are so loud (in wrong places / wrong times) and they don't even seem to notice it or pay any attention to their surroundings. You seemed very respective and cool ❤
Actually Helsinki university has several campuses. You saw the linguistic and humanistic faculty 😃
Ohhhhh it seems like a gorgeous school!
@@caricakes There are actually many other faculties at the central campus as well, for example law and social sciences (which are not humanistic ;). Faculties like medicine and natural sciences are located a bit farther from the center.
And theology is there as well!
- a theology student
this video is such a relief because it's one of those weeks where my body is so tired, but my mind wants to go somewhere. thank you for sharing your adventures!
🙏 glad i could adventure with you!
I really admire how you are able to make the places you go look so amazing and capture everything so nicely. I'm from Finland and this is probably the first time I thought it's actually really pretty here hah. Love your vlogs!
Are you kidding me?! Finland is so gorgeous hahahhaha
same! I've lived in Helsinki my entire life and I never thought it was any special. This vlog makes me wanna explore my home city in a different way, thanks Cari!
Very professional look in the video..or just natural talent 😊
i live in finland. it's so much to see here and i'm sure that you would love Lapland. hope you had fun!💕
I already want to come back and see more!!
I’m starting to enjoy your travel vlogs more than traveling itself
Gahhh thank you!!
Lucas Ou-Yang haha this is so true!!
Another finnish fan here, watching this video is like being a tourist in my own capital as I don't visit often. Glad you liked Helsinki! ❤️
Heheh thank you! Hope to come back and really explore one day :)
I’m an Aussie living in the Helsinki region and honestly it’s a beautiful city. This video makes me fall in love with it all over again ❤️
I live in Helsinki and I loved this video! You should visit Eira the next time you come to Helsinki. It’s full of old, colorful houses and pretty little parks!
I cant wait to go back!!
When u visited helsinki and went to the marketplace there was this "Herring fair" which has been held once a year since 1743. :-)
I’m surprised how much you were able to see in such a short amount of time, especially since you take some time to film. The city looks like it’s a great place to visit!
It was such a walkable city its amazing!!
first of all, your skin looks phenomenal. second of all, why do i want to live in this foreign city i have never heard of before :( so beautiful
Hahaha thank you!!
Helsinki is an awesome city to live in 😊 My relatives live there and I spend summers in Helsinki!
Hope you had fun in Helsinki 🇫🇮❤️
I did! Need to come back :)
Oh my isn't it beautiful. The buildings are so pretty and all the brick work on that one cathedral was amazing. Stay safe, have fun. Blessed be
Right?! All that yellow! I love!!
You captured Helsinki in a perfect way and showed the best parts of it from the perspective of a tourist. That's really cool and it's refreshing that someone can appreciate the beauty of Finland without just going to Lapland. I'm so happy you visited our country and hopefully you'll come back some day to see more!
Thank you so much! I hope to be back for a proper visit :)
You Did Real Well ! You found many places - that look real nice ! Sometimes it takes a Tourist to show the Best of The City !
Literally 90% of the viewers of this vid are finns😂
Yay 10% squad!
Trying to find out why youtube algorithm recommends these videos to us.
Hur fan vet du det....nolla
Jep mä oon
I'm from Finland and it's always so interesting to see how tourists feel here because I personally am bored with Finland 😅😅
Hahahha well i was definitely not bored for my one wild day there 🥰😍
After being tortured in Nursing for a month I finally got some time to watch my fave vlogger 😩💙 that was amazing! A short amount of time and lots of stuff already 😭 also the libraries 🥰
Oh god!! We thank you for your service 🥰
I have never had such library jealousy. Those looked absolutely amazing! 📚
Right?! Library heaven!
i have huge library jealousy after watching this and im from finland! :( my city, even though its one of the bigger ones in finland (in the top 10) just has a super old and kind of meh library
feels so composed there - like being in the woods, but in the largest city in the country
It was really such a calm city 🥰
I love the footage and the chill music in the background and it makes me actually proud to be a finn and to live in such a beautiful country! Thank you for making this video!
Ah, this was wonderful! Helsinki is my home and it was so much fun to see it explored like this. Love how you went to see all the libraries!! Thanks for the vid and welcome back some time ☺️
I hope to explore much more of finland next time - 19 hours was WAY too short hehehe
I'm studying tourism and hospitality management here in Helsinki and I really love to watch videos like these of our beautiful capital. It makes me so happy that people are enjoying their stay here, hope you'll come again you still have so much to see !
This was lovely! I've lived in the "metropolitan area" of Finland (if you can even call it that) my whole life so I'm very familiar with the downtown area, but somehow you made it all feel fresh and new. It was so refreshing seeing something you know so well through the eyes of someone who's never seen it before. I loved watching you explore Helsinki and I'm so glad you liked it ❤️
I've always loved your vlogs but I feel like you've really hit your stride this year, and these europe vlogs were so lovely cari!! I'm definitely adding helsinki to my list of places to visit now!
Thank you so so much!!!!
I enjoyed this so much, I could feel that "want to cuddle up in a nook with warm foods and read" vibe. And that cinnamon roll 🤤 I gotta get baking!! Autumn is really the best time to travel!
Yes!!! The weather was just so perfect for soup and a book 🤧
I hope you enjoyed your visit to Helsinki! Come back and experience it in the summertime as well. It’s always fascinating to see a city you know so well through somebody else’s eyes.
That was such a relaxing video, the music and your soft voice. Great stuff.
Your Scotland and Helsinki vlogs are so, so lovely, Cari. They bring back the cozy feeling I had exploring England in the fall last year. Making me miss Europe with a passion.
I already want to go back 🤧🤧🤧
I used to live in Helsinki but moved go Stockholm a few years ago and this cured my homesickness😩✊
The landscape is soooo pretty. It looks like a painting. You look tired but glad you were enjoying yourself. Gahhh these libraries. You know what we want to see! 😍😍😍📚
It was gorgeous!!!!
you did so much in such a little time without rushing!!!
Right?! The city center was so walkable :)
This was without doubt one of my faves! loved exploring the city with you 💛
Thank you always!!
I love how you find the perfect angle to shoot a clip. It really makes these places seem 100x more magical and peaks my exploration gene to the max.
Thank you so much for noticing!!
this was a wonderful little video, thank you ! your editing / shots are really good and i think you portrayed my hometown really well, watching this made me miss it even more..❣️
Absolutely in love with your colour grading at the moment Cari - those orange tones! 🧡🍊
Thank you 😭🙏
I loved the libraries, thank you so much for showing them
I have the same layover and at the same times, I was wondering what I could do with myself there but you solved that problem! thank you lol
Hope you have a great trip! I linked a blog post i made that has all the locations mapped out if that helps too :) plus definitely download the airport train app (linked in the blog too)
ok wow those scenery montages can literally be wallpapers for your phone. i'm in love ugh thank you for sharing them with us 😍
No matter how busy I get I always make sure to watch your videos. I always enjoy your videos and they truly makes me so happy. Always going to support you. ♥️
Gahhh thank you so so much!
your vlogs always make me want to visit the countries you feature! i've been to helsinki twice - and i thought i've seen all it has to offer - but your gorgeous shots of their libraries just make me want to go back. thanks for editing your vlogs in such a beautiful way too, they provide me with some much-needed escape after a looooong week. love from singapore ❤️
I feel like i always need to go back to cities a thousand times over (including Singapore!!)
I've been living in Helsinki my whole life and I started studying at the university two monts ago. The university library is my place to be! It was fun folllwing your day in Helsinki :)
Loved this . Beautiful city must go there soon . Always a pleasure to watch your vlogs .
Charming as always :3
Helsinki looked so magical, the buildings were unreal 😍
All that yellow! I was in love!!
I love how you captured the spirit of Helsinki during your short stay :) I live close by so for me as a city it's slightly "mundane" but through this video I can really respect the atmosphere and the nordic beauty of the city.
ahhh love all your travel videos :) would love a run through of how you plan your overseas trips, what you pack on the train etc.
you got so much done in less than a day! loved the atmosphere in this vlog :) really chill and cozy
I’m thankful so much of helsinki is walkable!!
You uploaded in the middle of my mom and I’s caricakes marathon 🤠 what a pretty trip you had!! we send you a hug
Omg thank you!!!
You’ve inspired me to visit! Beautiful relaxing video, what stunning libraries!
I’m in Dublin right now and doing Cork and Galway, you’ve inspired me to take some video footage on my trip let’s see what happens haha
Yessss! I wish i had vlogged my ireland trip - will have to go again 😉
I am so glad I stumbled on your channel. I loved how chill & cozy this video felt with the music instead of it being too intense like an adventure. I will be in Helsinki next week! Subscribed.
Thanks so much! Enjoy your time in Helsinki 🥰
Where are You from ? It is rainy and quite cold already !
Awww, this vlog is so warm and cozy ☺️ itching to visit Helsinki now! I would also like a video on how you plan for the trips, decide on which sights to see etc. And just in general how you plan your content (even the simple vlogs) and sticking to the plan! I tend to plan out my weekends month ahead but then I see a new cool cafe on Insta and suddenly all my planning seems so outdated, like you know “so last season” . I end up in scrapping everything and starting anew, which isn’t very efficient. Impart some planning wisdom on us, mortals, Cari! 🙏🏻😀
Hahah i will try my very best!!
I'm a student of University of Helsinki currently studying a year abroad in Japan and watching this video made me so homesick. I've only lived in Helsinki for two years but I've come to love the city so much during that time. Thanks for the lovely video highlighting some of the best parts of Helsinki!
another finnish viewer here, such a beautiful vlog! ahhh now i really miss helsinki 💛
🙏🙏🙏
This video really reminded me of my trip. We missed out flight back home in Washington DC so we got to explore the city, it was an amazing experiance I will never forget!
Omg annoying to miss a flight but great to explore the city!!
I had no idea what Helsinki looked like but it looks like such a beautiful city! Thank you again for a beautiful vlog!
Right?! You need to make a trip up there!!
This video came up in my recommendations. Glad you enjoyed Helsinki!
Silent chapel! Wow! What a large 🙏🏻 room! Amazing city to add to my bucket list! I totally understand wanting to be student there. I noticed the comfortable chairs that face a breathtaking view.
I would get no work done in those chairs! I’d just space out the whole time hahaha
Cari, I would do the same thing. Hahaha
Such a relaxing vibe there! I love when you include the prices on the screen.. it really helps the rest of us who want to travel there 😊
I'm so glad the weather was so nice!
Me too!! It was perfect 😍
thanks for the beautiful video of my second home, all my uni memories just rushing through my head, i feel emotional but grateful i had the chance to live here
You lived in a gorgeous place!!
The city, the food, the libraries look amazing. I hope i can afford and visit Finland one day.
sunny autumn light. this is when Helsinki looks the best.
Wow! What a beautiful video you put together of my home city. I’m so glad you enjoyed Helsinki🇫🇮🇫🇮
It was great watching this as soon as I woke up. I feel refreshed! I felt like I was with you. Short and sweet! 😊 💕
🙏🙏🙏
The atmosphere of this video is so nice and cozy, makes me want to visit Helsinki again! I live in Finland, but so far up North that I rarely get the chance to go there, and now... well, i have to go.
Loved the video! Really highlighted my favourite parts of the city.
thank you so much!
Great video! The morning light there looked so dim. Very cool looking.
Yeah i guess cause i was so far north! So pretty!
ohhhh i loved this! i loved your scotland videos too, i spent all last week mentally planning a trip thanks to you :-P but there was something really lovely about this one...maybe just the way it was a little bit of stolen time out of the trip home. the light and the architecture and the food and the libraries...you just made it all look wonderful. that feeling you mentioned, the cozy wanting to read a book one, totally came through in the video.
It really was such a cozy city!! Glad it translated 🙏🙏🙏
I don't watch a lot of travel vlogs, but this was very enjoyable! Good work! Will definitely watch more of your videos.
Thank you!!!
Your vlogs are something else. I love them and generally the way you film...with so much love. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life and countries with us :)
Thank you so much!!!!!
@@caricakes You are very welcome. I was so confused you answered since it`s so late in Korea but remembered ah you are not here right now haha!
I wasn't ready and so quite surprised to hear a French song that I really like in your video. That was really sweet. I'm watching from Paris :) 💗 Going to Helsinki soon! I can't wait
You remind me that how nice it is to live here. Thank you and hope to see you here again soon.
I found this vlog really peaceful, loved it!
This was so lovely video, thank you so much!
This the city I was born in.Can't remember last time I was there and it has changed a lot.Glad you enjoyed it
idk how. but you always make me feel so relaxed.. i feel great every time i watch your videos🖤🖤
I love your Korea vlogs and I’m so happy you liked Helsinki! And that you visited our uni’s libarary, the University of Helsinki library~ I hope you’ll be back someday ☺️
I will most definitely be back!! 😍😍😍
i live in Finland and got really excited when i saw the title! hope you had a good 19 hours :)
same😊
I loved it!!
People who visit libraries while they’re traveling are my friends without any introduction or getting to know each other time needed! Like 100 sympathy point for you 💕
The atmosphere of this video is so nice and cozy, makes me want to visit Helsinki!
Greetings from Finland! :) Your vlogs are always so well made with a good taste of music, thank you.
Thank you!! I hope to come back and really see finland one day :)
now i also wanna try that salmon soup- looove salmon and carbs so it sounds right up my alley!
enjoyed this layover adventure of yours! you capture details so well. thanks again for sharing ♡
Omg its SO good i an obsessed hahahhaha
@@caricakes My grandma also adds tomatoes in the soup and in my opinion it makes it even better.
i was on the edge of choosing to go to the city or not. now i HAVE to go! thanks for the video! gonna be there in one month!
You did a really good job making the best of the little time you had!
The library visits were a nice idea, as Finns tend to appreciate their libraries, and use them a lot. 😊 Also, the salmon soup is well worth trying, glad you got to it, it's quite delicius. If you come to Finland again, I recommend June or August - June (before midsummer) is probably the best time. July in Helsinki (and June after midsummer) is.... quiet. People are on their summer holidays, and tend to be somewhere else than Helsinki. July is great in that pepople have been waiting for the summer, and are happy with the warm weather, and the long days. The cafes and bars have terrases open outside, and the nature is at it's most beautiful.
The oodi library has very good and modern public bathrooms. As always, an excelent and relaxing video 😊.
It's so cool to watch you walking the same streets in Helsinki as me! (I visited Helsinki few years ago - loved it!)
💕💕💕
Omg Cari I'm from Helsinki and I've been a fan of your videos for ages; I've been binging your vlogs especially much these past weeks because I'm going to Seoul for the first time next Wednesday * ___ * Can't believe you just went to my favorite café Johan & Nyström and explored many of my daily routes 😍 So happy to see you enjoy the city of Helsinki, hope to see you back one day! It's very refreshing to see a beautiful travel vlog of my hometown~
Thanks for all your work and effort, all of your videos are so pretty and also very helpful for planning future trips ❤️
Have an amazing time in Seoul! Maybe I will see you in the airport haha i think i arrive back in seoul wednesday too!
@@caricakes thank you and that'd be lovely! ❤️ have safe flights as well :)
omg i am IN LOVE with all the architecture!!!!! omg ur vid rly made me wanna go to helsinki rn😩
am living for your vlogs recently! Love your korea videos (of course) but as someone living in Europe you're definitely making me want to take advantage of it more and explore!! Hope you had a great time
Heheh I’m glad! So jealous of your train system so you can explore almost the entire continent hahah
@@caricakes yeah its pretty good, although it's normally a lot cheaper to fly! Hope you have a great day :D thanks for the reply!
I don t know why, but this video is so comforting, i love it❤️
These last two vlogs have made me want to go to both Scotland and Finland now 😩😊
Hehehe im glad!!
Great Video Cari Cakes about Helsinki, a beautiful city. Greetings from Osasco/Brazil!
I'm late, but this was just beautiful :) Thanks for sharing Cari! 💕
Thank you 🤧🤧🤧
