    Tampere is not underrated amongst Finns, it is god knows how many years in a row voted as the best city in Finland or where people would move if they had to move somewhere. And quite many of them do, Tampere city area has actually grown from 200k to 250k in twenty years.

    Nobody says "free wifi" in Finland because that's just assumed to exist everywhere. And yet most Finns use the 4G or 5G connection of their phones because that results a slightly lower latency in most cases. However, in case of trains, you want to use the train company "VR" wifi network because it works in the tunnels, too. Lots of latency, though, so don't expect playing any competitive online games in the train.

Cheaper windows use Argon but higher quality windows use Krypton because it has better insulation properties. The inert gas is filled to same pressure as normal atmosphere so there's no pressure difference which prevents leaking gasses in or out.

    It's a shame they didn't find the hill on the northwest side of Tampere, Pispala. It's full of gorgeous wooden houses with views out to the lake on both sides, as well as a view of the amusement park. And there's a cafe up there that I've heard has really good thicc pancakes, perfect after climbing up all those stairs (or taking a taxi/bus if you're worried you might not survive). It's my favorite part of Tampere besides the amusement park 'cause I can't grow up.

    11:40 Double-decker trains can be found in central Europe as well. The standard loading gauge (=minimum clearance for bridges, tunnels) in the UK is lower than in central Europe, which in turn is lower than in Finland. The difference is not massive, however, because a single-deck coach is about 4 m from the ground and a double-deck coach is about 5 m from the ground. But running double-decker trains in the UK would require a massive re-engineering of the whole rail network.

      I don't know off hand where you can get coulibiac, but I guess you can google 'coulibiac and Helsinki' and see what turns up! It is considered to be a pastry, so bread, cake and pastry shops should have coulibiac for sale. Cafés may also offer them. The spelling in Finnish starts with a k.
      They're not that common but grocery stores may have it in their fish or pastry sections. Good hunting!

    2) the stress is always, I repeat: ALWAYS, on the first syllable. Intonation always (slightly) falls both in singular words and phrases.

    I actually really dislike Hesburger. My family used to go to Carrols a lot when I was a kid but after the chain was sold to Hesburger the quality dropped and I can only remember few visits to Hesburger after that. I have also been a vegetarian for almost two decades now and remember how I couldn't really eat anything at Hese (but then again, I used to work for McD and knew exactly what was safe for me to eat). These days I don't eat much fast food as I don't see it worth the cost, but if I do I usually go for Taco Bell or McDonald's. Granted, my displeasure for losing Carrols might've tainted the taste of Hesburger for me, but I also don't like Burger King while many people sing their praises so maybe my tastes simply don't align well there.

The city where the first lamp was lit in the Nordics, in 1882, in the Finlayson factory, a company founded by a Scottish engineer James Finlayson in 1820: "Tampere - History and Heritage". Some relating local history: "Tycoon Serlachius - Joel ”Very Finnish Problems” Willans". Tampere is also the place where Lenin and Stalin met for the first time: "Miksi Tampereella on Lenin-museo?". The oldest still running public sauna in Finland: "Rajaportti Sauna: My Fave Finnish City: Tampere". A trip from London to Tampere: "Amazing TAMPERE! | Winter Trip to FINLAND'S Industrial City". And let's not forget the Moomin Museum: "Adventures of the Moomin Museum Guest Of Honour in Tampere". In case you don't know the Moomins: "BBC Moominland Tales: The Life of Tove Jansson".

    Salmon is frickin' expensive here! most highest what I've seen has been almost 30€/KG !! Depends a lot where it comes from, we often have Norwegian salmons but own country salmons too, many places sells salmon foods but buying it from stores is crazy expensive, if you're like, there might be sale like 14.95€/KG or something, so even just small piece of salmon is expensive, I would love to eat smoked salmon often but it's rare treat for me cos of the price, sometimes thankfully there's shops like Prisma has that soon out of date products are -30% sale and it changes after 8pm to -60%! so sometimes it's so lucky if you get cooked salmon or smoked salmon for example of that price, how much Dwayne it costs in UK? My mum works at place called kauppahalli and they sell fish products own country ones, there's whole raw salmon which they've removed bones is 19,95€/KG and make them as filee is same price but salmon price changes all the time, but yeah, mum told me that if you buy raw filee of salmon without bones, the price is 29.50€/KG !!!!! She lives at Savo so they have they're own close towns salmons and other fish, even from all the way to Helsinki some ppl go there to buy salmon and other products cos many have cottages here :) in my opinion from Hesburger and Mc'donalds is that every other food and all is better in Mc'donalds except mayos! I hate MCD mayos cos portions are so small and they're very vinegary but Hesburgers mayos is in bags and garlic one actually has garlic pieces, it's so good that I always add it to my burgers ( can't eat any other mayos or ketchup etc ) lol, so hersburger I recommend garlic mayo! it's so much opinion who likes who but I like these differences :D

    Window blinds are outside innermosts glasses (2 panes) for two purposes: less dust and ability to keep the blinds (which heat during sunshine) outside the insulating glass which helps to keep the rooms cooler during the summer.

    It's not just about tunnels. It's about the loading gauge, I think, which is just a fancy way of defining the maximum cross section of a train on a track. Which, yes, is about tunnels and bridges and stations and the over-track hardware, etc., but also a function of how old the track is. It probably wouldn't be entirely out of question to expand that stuff, if you planned it properly and wanted to make the costly investment. Newer railway infrastructure tends to be designed to be larger. Those old round trains in the London underground have pretty small loading gauges.

    Salmon prices depend on where you buy it, how much you buy it and where it comes from(for example was it catched in Norway).
    But If you buy the whole fish from the store it's 13,99€ per kilo(Checked this from K-Citymarkets site). 3kg of salmon would be 41,97€.
    There is cheaper options of course.

    Tampere is Finland's second largest urban area after the Helsinki region. So it's not exactly small. It is small on a world scale, but so are all finnish cities. Tampere region has population of slightly less than 500 000 people (2024).
    Geographically, the Tampere urban area is spread widely. For example, Hervanta, Finland's largest suburb, is located about 10 kilometers from the city. The downtown of Tampere is quite compact because it is as if squeezed between Lake Näsijärvi and Lake Pyhäjärvi. 😌👍

    The thing about Hesburger and McDonald's is that I think Finnish McDonald's is just not very good. I had some McDonald's in the UK and it was way better than Finnish McDonald's... or at least what I remember of Finnish McDonald's (I don't know if it's gotten any better recently, because I haven't eaten at McDonald's in so many years)
    I still prefer Hesburger to UK McDonald's, but that might just be because I'm more used to Hesburger, I don't know

    As some have already mentioned, Tampere is not underrated. It has been the most popular city in Finland for years. It is also the second largest urban area after the Helsinki region and growing in a fast paste.
    Tampere is also the only city in Finland, besides Helsinki, that has trams. Though Tampere has a more modern light rail trams and Helsinki has these older streetcars.
    Most tourists just focus too much to Helsinki and Lapland. I recomend to travel to Tampere of course, other bigger cities like Turku and Oulu. Lakeland of Finland is also very beautiful destination.

    10:30 Usually it's expensive. Norwegian and wild are expensive, but Finnish grown indoors near lake Saimaa is quite cheap. You can get a pack of 3-5 small fillets for about 7 euros. In comparison four pieces of Norwegian salmon would have been over 40 euros at my local Citymarket. Those cheaper ones are also 14 euros a pack there, but in the cheaper shop you can't buy salmon from the fish counter because it's never fresh enough. And they don't sell good fresh summer potatoes in the winter like the Citymarket.

    12:30 If you want to visit smaller towns I would recommend Tammisaari, Hanko, Fiskars and Porvoo at least. Fiskars has old buildings and lots of artists living in the area, Hanko and Tammisaari are old towns on the coast and Porvoo has a large old town, if I remember correctly. Haven't been there since a child. Get a local guide for the places. Maybe some of us. But all of those places suck during the winter. They are just dead and lifeless, but wake up for the summer.

    13:30 Is it really? That's one of the reasons I don't like long train journeys. The wifi is even worse than mobile data. It's like one bad connection shared with everyone. I don't understand why. In metro, local trains and busses/cars you will always get a perfect connection, but VR can't get even your phone to work inside a train. At least if you use 2,5g, 3g, 4g and 5g you sometimes get a fast connection for few seconds until it goes back to edge. But I don't have any recent experiences. I think it's at least five years since I used a train. And the seats are worst ever. I'm in tears from back pain after an hour. Upstairs on the restaurant car is a little better, but 1,5h is the most I can take even there. Sitting on the floor would be more comfortable.

    Between Helsinki-Tampere I believe there are no tunnels at all. As for the height limitation of our tunnels, I just don't know. I have never travelled on a double-decked train car. They must be a new thing.

    There are also speculations about climate warming making Finland's winters colder. That is if ice melts around Northern seas and collapses the Gulf Stream system. If that happens also England would get colder I think and the whole Northern Europe.

  • @adaikonen7009

    To be honest it is more surprising UK doesn't have double decker trains as they have the busses. Your point about the tunnels is valid but at least some areas in London definitely don't have any tunnels whenever I've been so some routes could definitely benefit from double decker trains since UK is so populated. (I have almost never been in a train there that wasn't booked full maybe that is just my luck though) Germany also has two floor trains :)

    Trains with two floors have existed for a long time in Sweden.
    The designation is X40. The trains have everything on board.
    Maximum speed is 200 km/h
    The most recent refurbishment of the interior of the X40 was done in Finland
    By the company VR Fleetcare. The trains are transported to the Finnish border.
    After that, the trains have to be rolled up onto transfer bogies.
    Svenk's train has the British / European standard gauge
    1435 mm. Finland has Russian gauge 1,524 millimeters.

    As a Finnish person, i can say that Tampere, is not underrated city.
    In fact, it is one of Finland's most popular cities, it's big city (here is a list about Finnish cities, areas and populations: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_urban_areas_in_Finland_by_population ), and one of Finland's growth cities.
    And growth city means city, which the state develops with more money than other cities.
