    Ok, great video.. When I clicked it on I thought this was going to be yet another video of a spoiled American millennial telling us how great their life is while filming at the “best” coffee shop in the world that also happened to sell the “best” cinnamon buns in the world. Instead , you put together a smart, classy travel video that made exploring Helsinki something to look forward to doing. Hats off to you and keep up the good work, I am now a new subscriber to your channel..

And take a boattrip in both of the lakes if you want to. Näsineula it a big high building you can see long and our city from top of the Näsineula. Its located near Särkäniemi amusemant park. Near city is of course public sauna where you can swim after bath and enjoy the cool water other public sauna is in Pispala district oldest public sauna in Finland.

Buildings seem to have windows everywhere, to bring outside….IN! …Even the featured hotel.... (a prison!).... has clean lines and nature all around…..The city has an outdoor sea pool!

    People often ask what is the best time of the year to visit Helsinki and I suppose it's during the summer, but on the other hand Helsinki is rather empty then as Finns tend to leave for their summer cottages then. This vid is in the early autumn and it's good too and at times quite warm too, and busy.

    Did you know that Alvar Aalto designed the "kidney" shaped swimming pool? So in doing so, he had a big influence in the skateboarding scene. One of his friends from the U.S. wanted one and then the design spread across California. I believe it was in the late 70's when California had a drought and the swimming pools were emptied, skaters occupied them and experienced something that would change the scene forever.

The Nordic countries are: Finland 🇫🇮 Sweden 🇸🇪 Norway 🇸🇯 Denmark 🇩🇰 and Iceland 🇮🇸 All of them are members of Nordic council and cooperating with each others. Finland particularly with Sweden. The only difference is the language.
