I would tell every foreigner coming to Finland to learn Finnish. How you can integrate here if you don't understand the language? If I would move to a different country, learning the language would be my top objective. If you can only speak English you are going to talk with foreigners mostly. And you can get Finnish friends. Well, you can get even if you speak English only, but seriously, learn Finnish. It's a difficult language, but it will be worth it if you are going to spend years here.

That rolling spanish r when you said "terve" sounds so adorable. I'm really impressed by how flexible and adaptive your outlook is. Like, yeah, these were shocks when you came in but seem to have come to terms with them. Some people never get over the cold.

Whatever the country you move to, the first thing you should do is to learn the local language. Little by little you get the hang of it. Language is very deeply rooted in everything that is the new reality where you are now living in.

Hey you got the "ä, ö, y" correct great job on that

Well, the world happiness report measures pretty much everything but the subjective feeling of happiness of the individuals of the country. If it did, I am not so sure if Finland would be that high up. The report says that, out of all the measured countries in the world, we in Finland have the most reasons to be happy, but I wouldn't still consider us living in 24/7 happiness. Maybe it is kind of an "elintasokrapula" - "hangover from high standard of living", you eventually become a bit too blind to really understand how great it is to be in where you are now.

Love these! Hope seeing more of you in future. Wishing you all the best! What did you bring from Spain? How being born in Spain shows through you?

Rauta = iron Teräs = steel Hiiliteräs = carbon steel Ruostumaton teräs/rosteri = stainless steel

You say you can't pronounce our "Ä", but you just did it perfectly with the word "actually" in 2:57 ;) That's why Tolkien took influence from Finnish making Ä a three dotted letter in hobbit writing. Like how Bilbo Bäggings writes his name in the movies.

Hopefully you stay here for long time🙏🏻

That is really weird how you would find things to microwave in the place in the store where they sell microwave food... So I don't know what shop you were in but you can find everything you want in a Citymarket or Prisma in Finland.

I'm always confused by people who move to a foreign country and don't want to learn the language. Even if it's hard to learn, speaking the language will open a whole new world for you and deepen and enhance your foreign experience.

It takes on average 5 years or more to really become fluent in a foreign language. It's significant investment of time and energy for most people. If you move to Finland thinking that you'll study for some years or work in some projects or company some years, and then might look for opportunities globally, then learning Finnish isn't priority for you. They also might be primarily interested in the international community in Finland, so there too Finnish skills aren't as important for them. As lingua franca, English seems to be enough and improving it might seem to be more critical skill. It's only when, or if, the Finnish speaking society and people start to become relevant and interesting, then the language becomes obviously a key thing to acquire.

If you live in Helsinki, finding fresh ingredients is easy. Just go to a supermarket. My local one has a great selection of foods from herbs to fisf from all over. Also, Madrid is hardly Mediterranian. Interesting watch, kiitos.

I would dare to say that the weather in hot seasons or climate in Madrid, Spain, can be significantly affected by humans the same is much less critical in Lapland. Especially coldness isn't the results of human culture. It's the opposite. Significant warming up in the arctic climate is related to global climate change where human culture globally has an effect. But not much of that can be contributed to the local culture. Mediterranean area has been heavily affected by humans over some millennia and that has affected local climates.

Ай бұрын

She didn't say that, she said we had lots of "laatikko" and I really hope she removed the aluminium...iron is steel... Usually when you move to a new place you do eat ready food the first month probably, at least if you start from 0. First things you get is usually washing machine if the house doesn't have one, way to make coffee/tee, micro, bed, drapes/curtains..... .... Stuff to cook with comes way down the list and can take a month or two before you find a store with the stuff you are ready to pay for or even have enough money to pay for it. When you don't speak the language or even able to read it then it adds some more difficulty too it. Then she did say "its just a normal market" and that she now prepares the food she used to eat at home so I have the feeling she came here with only her clothes starting from 0 and thus having the need to find ready meals but she stumbled into the "laatikko" part and was amazed on how many different types we had(Like we have christmas food all around the year so its not off that there is so many then).

A nice video! However, Finnish is an incredibly intuitive languge - much more than your native Spanish, to be honest. If it weren't, then all the Finnish children would have extremely big problems learning it, wouldn't they? And they do not - period. All right, you probably used the wrong word, i.e. a much better thing would have been to say: not something I can easily learn on the basis of my native language Spanish.

Yes exactly that! Once you learn the first “basics” of Finnish language, it’s really logical. My point in the video was that, when you come from another country (at least me as a Spaniard) my brain didn’t have the enough resources to create a general context of the conversation 😅 But after 6 months studying Finnish, and with the little amount of the language that I know, it’s totally true that you can find that logic and follow a conversation 😊 (if it’s not much puhekieli ☝🏽✨) But yes that’s the point, thanks for clarifying 🙏🏽

If I may add. Finnish comes from completely different language family. So our closest languages are Eesti (Estonia) and Unkari (Hungary). Where as Swedish and Norwegian would closer to Spanish. Expanding on this. Finland is politically part of West Europe - but culturally part of East Europe. We drink and are melancholic. So quite a jump coming from Spain. Respect!

@Gittas-tube

Ай бұрын

​@@jacquelinelacanNo, no and no. Culturally Finland is NOT part of Eastern Europe. Never has been. Drinking and having a penchant for being melancholic are not representative of the culture of a country. If you take a look at the history of Finland and of the remarkable CULTURAL achievements of a country of only 5.5 million people, you'd be amazed. Finland is one of the Nordic welfare states, whose history and culture are closely tied together. In addition to that, and largely because of their own language, the Finns have their own slice of culture that adds its unique flavour to that of the Nordic family group. Outdated stereotypes are best forgotten. This year, Finland was voted as the "happiest" country in the world for the 7th time in a row. This means that in comparison to many other places in the world, people in Finland are by and large content with the way the country is run and with their own lives, as well.
