Fabulous Finland ! I spent nearly three months wild camping there and the Aland islands this summer, Honda CB500x. Total peace and quiet. Lovely people , such an easy country to disappear in and be left alone. I did take a trip up to Nordkapp for a few days, was great, but I couldn’t wait to get back to the Finnish forests and lakes. Thoroughly enjoying your videos, thumbs up and subbed 🙂

Just discovered you guys! Native Finn here, and you have very beautiful images from this country! Being from southern Finland I love to do trips to Lapland. I don't know much about motorcycling, but I guess that it might be much more tiresome than driving a car. And the funny part where you try dodge the road patches like a computer game... Me (sometimes) do that also, it's hilarious! :)

You could have turned into another (Finland's newest) national park at that Hossa sign around 10:00. The reindeer was there to lure you in. There's a nice canyon lake and stone age rock paintings to see, whenever you come back for your national park tour. And then, north of Joensuu, there's Koli - which is the best view in Finland.

As a Finn... The least densely populated country in the Europe... Lots of land, not much people, north from Oulu hardly anybody... The trees get very boring soon. You can leave from Central Park in downtown Helsinki and drive 1500 km to Nuorgam and see nothing but - trees. Despite of that, and because of small densely populated countries such as the Netherlands or Italy, the EU requires we should have more wood. Maybe worth the size of Belgium? I think the number was 25% of something... You should testify in the front of EU that those guys do not have shortage of trees.
