This was such a good trip!
Ultimate Christmas Vibes!! Best trip! ❤️🎅🦌
The sausage is cured. It's not "raw" even if you don't cook it at all, so you could eat it straight out of the package. You're just warming it over the fire.
That’s a relief! I was worried I would get sick after the 2 bites I ate 😂😂😂. Phewwww 🙌🏼😁
@@LaurenCotter Yup, no worries there.
@@LaurenCotter Yeah it's actually a thing - "I was in such a hurry I had zero time to eat, just had a cold "nakki"/sausage straight from the pack" :D it just tastes like lunch meat/deli meat. Next time you're here you'll have to go all in and have one completely uncooked, it's ok :D
11:15 Don't worry - the sausage is always readily cooked: you can eat it cold, warm or hot. ;)
Thank you, I so regret throwing it out now 😂🤭. I wanted to eat it but thought I’d be sick. Silly me, I guess this is my excuse to return to Helsinki to try the sausage again 😁🇫🇮✈️🙌🏼.
Wow. I live in Helsinki and haven`t heard of that reindeer park in Nuuksio. Got to go there.
OMG Yes 1000% the reindeer park was the highlight of my trip! So magical. I hope you get to visit soon 🥰🦌🙌🏼
I was wondering the same, i have seen reindeers in lapland, but not in Nuuksio
nuuksio is in espoo and i havent seen any reindeers in espoo :o maybe lapland
YOU BOTH LOOKED FREEZING getting in the sea ! looked like an amazing trip great video Lauren 😍
It was cold but the sauna DEFFO helped haha! Thanks a mil Dain, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year hun Xx 🎅🎇
Nice and beautiful video. Everything looks more beautiful when there is snow. ❄☃❄
Thanks so much 😁❤️. Absolutely agree it’s a beautiful winter wonderland ☃️❄️🎄.
that reindeer accommodation is brilliant!
It really is!! Was without a doubt the highlight of my trip. Pure Christmas magic. 🎅🏼🦌✨🎄
You guys are MAD to swim in the freezing sea 🌊 fair fair play!! 😂😂
Hahaha had to be done chick! When in Finland 😂🇫🇮🥶🙌🏼
I was born in Espoo and lived my childhood in Finland, but I have lived in France for a very long time, I love watching videos about Finland, to remember and discover new things, I am delighted with this video, kiitos.
Awww I miss Espoo!! I want to visit again and bring my family along so they can experience it too 🙌🏼🇫🇮.
So glad you enjoyed the video ❤️
Oh wow, I checked your channel and thought you'd have like thousands of views in your video, because the quality, timing etc. is excellent. Keep up the good work :) I guess the "competition" i quite high on travel vlogs.
I live in Helsinki and I have been in Kot Chicken, Cafe Regatta and Christmas markets, but not yet at Löyly, I find it quite pricey. It was cool to know about that reindeer accommodation, fun idea to feed the reindeers from the window.
Awww honestly thank you so much for saying that! 😁🙌🏼 TH-cams algorithm is a hard one to crack so hopefully with time my views will increase 🤞🏼😂
You’re so lucky to live in Helsinki, I want to go back again next year it’s just magical! ✨🇫🇮
Such ah beautifull place and view great vedio sharing
It really is a beautiful place, thanks a mil for watching 🙌🏼❤️😁
@@LaurenCotter welcome po
Wow that takes courage to jump into that water. But what a beautiful country. It’s truly a winter wonderland. Wow and reindeer? So appropriate. Merry Christmas 🎄
Hahaha I know right! Thank God the sauna was right by otherwise I think poor Lee might’ve had a heart attack 😂😂😂.
That’s exactly what it was a winter wonderland and the reindeer were just magical. Thanks so much for watching and supporting as always Nestor 😁🙌🏼. Merry Christmas 🎅🏼🎄🦌✨
One finlander here. I live in Eastern part at Finland. Right now today it is -4 celsius. Some snow falling and we have already 20centtimetres of snow here. I'm just waiting for the lake freese enough to get icefishing. Would like to get some christmas dinner fishes out of fresh!
@@samihyleh865 that sounds epic!! Would love to try ice fishing ❄️🎣.
I hope you catch some good ones 🤞🏼🐟
@@LaurenCotter Yeah it is cool. Some people have all the gear, fish radar, mechanic drill, even a tent over them... But I go old style. Put some warm clothes on and drill holes with hand tool and just sit there.
OMG that is the best tram ever!
Such a cool experience to do in Helsinki 🇫🇮
Amazing all are explained so well loved it subscribed
Aww thank you so much, really appreciate it! Happy New Year to you 😁
@@LaurenCotter Happy New Year
Merry christmas from Finland 🎉
Thank you so much!! Merry Christmas from Ireland 🥳🎅🏼☃️🎄🦌
WOW THAT IS CRAZY YOU GOT TO FEED THEM FROM YOUR WINDOW OMG
It’s up there in my top 3 experiences I’ve ever done in my life! So magical. 10/10 would recommend 🦌🎅🏼
6:15 Best pronounciation of glögi i have heard from a foreigner. Lots of people say the Ö as a regular O.
😂🙌🏼 why thank you!! It’s such a fun word to say 😁
I’m going to Helsinki in April. The algorithm suggested your vid. Love it so far I’m halfway in. Was it easy to navigate the public transport? That’s the only thing that has me sketched out a little sketch.
Woohoo the algorithm is finally on my side 😂🙌🏼. Aww you’re gonna love Helsinki!! Yeah I found the public transport super easy to navigate. We used the Citymapper app and it’s really accurate. Also, if you’re getting the train to the city centre buy a day pass as it works out cheaper. Hope you’ve the best time. ✈️🙌🏼😁
Ah come on you Irish are supposed to be tough!! :) 40 seconds of a swim in the freezing Baltic after the sauna is a minimum requirement!
😂😂😂 I tried to channel Wim Hof in the Baltic Sea but need more work 🥶❄️ Merry Christmas 🎅🏼☃️🎄🦌
you really killed that sausage to black, it is already cooked, just a little while on the fire is needed...
I know 😭😭😭 I thought it had to be cooked I didn’t realise it was already cooked and I cremated it 😂🫣🌭🔥
I from Finland!!!!❤
Me too Laura!! Will deffo be back again ❤️🙌🏼🇫🇮 Merry Xmas 🎄☃️
You can eat those finnish sausages cold also, They are cooked (steamboiled) , not raw at all.
I like them cold with mustard.
Ohhhh cold with mustard! Must try that next time 😁🙌
I’m looking to go Christmas time, how did you book everything you wanted to do?
If you click on the video description (just under the video) I've posted all the links to everything we booked. For the pub tram you can't prebook tickets, you just pay on arrival. It wasn't overly busy when we went so you should be grand. I think it runs every hour and they take an hour break for lunch. The times are on their facebook page. Hope you've a fab time! 💖💖
That 8€ for 2dl of Glögi just hurts. I get that they need some profit but that price is just absurd. I hope it was at least some good stuff and not the basic grocery store one that sells for 2€ per liter (without alcohol of course).
Also almost all sausages here are already cooked at the factory so even if the meat looks red, its not raw. The texture is not the greatest as it is left over meat and also some flour.
I shouldn't be surprised it's the same price in London for the Glögi 😂I will say it was DELICIOUS! Very much worth the €8 so that was grand.
Haha flour & leftover meat explains the texture and why I thought it was still raw hahaha lesson learned for next time. 😁🙌
Merry Christmas from Florida. We are hoping you enjoy your holiday in Finland. We will be there in April and are looking forward to it. Subscribed to follow along. If you enjoy culture, food, nature and history, we are a father and son team of ecological anthropologists with a channel you might enjoy. Cheers to your travels and content. - Turtle
Merry Christmas to you both. I hope you've a fab time in Finland in April, you're gonna LOVE it there. Super safe, clean and TONNES of nature! Just subbed you guys after watching your Athens vlog. Hope you've a Happy New Year & more travels to come. 🙌🙌🎇🎇
@@LaurenCotter Thanks Lauren. We tend to have a blast most of the time. Thanks for the sub and checking out our stuff. Talk again soon.
the sausage is fine to eat even from the package, it's not raw
Haha I now know that for the next time, I didn't realise it was cooked and I was only meant to warm it up 😂
11:27 the sausage is black, how come it's not done? XD
It’s my fault 😂🫣 I didn’t realise it comes cooked and you just warm it up. I thought it was raw so I kept cooking it 😂😂 epic fail! 🤭
@@LaurenCotter hahah, don't worry.
Yeah, most sausages are indeed pre-cooked, there are raw ones available, too.
beware of the birds 😂😂😂
😂😂😂
What is the name of the accommodation u staying in Nuuksio?
It's Nuuskio Reindeer Park. Here's the link to the accommodation www.nuuksioreindeerpark.fi/fi/yo-paremajassa/.
Thanks for watching & have a lovely Xmas 🎅❄️
What dates did you do this holiday ??
We went in Dec 2022 🇫🇮
“Low-lu” 🙂
Great to know there are reindeers not too far from where I live! 😍
Haha my pronunciation needs work 😂... You're so lucky to live there, it's magical! Can't wait to return again. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you 🎅🎇
Thank you, Lauren! Finnish has pronunciation challenges, for sure! 😂 And because I found your video, I discovered I don’t have travel up north to be around reindeers! 🙏🏻🤗 I’m going visit those reindeers in 2 weeks time! After all these 11 years I’ve lived in the Helsinki region! 😋🥳
I hope you had a good Christmas, and welcome back! Santa awaits. As for 2023, all the best! I made this drone video on 1st Jan, enjoy!

I live in Helsinki and i didn´t even know that reindeer park in Nuuksio exists
I hope you’ll get a chance to visit now you know about it. It’s epic! Especially in the snow ☃️🦌❄️🎄. Thanks for watching 😁❤️
fun fact. did they tell that old timers used reindeer antlers for men stamina. Like... umm.. viag..
🤣🤣🤣 nope they deffo didn’t tell us this little tid bit of information.
@@LaurenCotter :D I think it is not the information they want to share everyone :D
@@LaurenCotter Yes, they're selling it in Lapland for souvenirs. Small plastic tubes containing ground antlers with information to swallow quickly or your neck will become stiff.😂
@@jupehe5703 😂😂😂😂
8€ for a glass of glögi? You got totally ripped off by tourist prices there.
Yup €8 for the small cup of glögi 🥲 but I will admit it was VERY delicious! 😁
360 pounds each??
No 360 for both of us 😁
@@LaurenCotter ooh...I really enjoyed the video 🥲
@@Warsticks463 aww thanks a mil 🥰🙌🏼😊
Kiss for you 💋💋💋💋💋💋💕💕💕💕💕💙💙💙💙💙
Thank you!
