Even freakier thing is when you say some word and after couple of seconds you hear the same word said on TV or radio. K-Rauta has stores at least across the Fennoscandia and Baltics. Not necessarily with that name though. E.g. in Sweden the stores are nowadays K-Bygg stores. There are pretty funny Swedish K-Rauta TV commercials, which have taken a life of their own on Swedish TV. A Finnish actor Jarmo Mäkinen stars in the commercials. He's also familiar face in Swedish TV productions: "K-rauta - Ett byggvaruhus av det rätta virket - Manifest" and "Partaj - Jarmo". More from Bastuklubben: "Partaj - Jarmo Bastuklubben". Here Jarmo, the real one, confesses that he's just an actor. He can't build anything. K-Rauta helps him with everything: "Jarmos bekännelse". Kalajoki is known for some of Finland's best beaches and Venetian Festival. Starting with people from Kalojoki town hall rooting for Finland's Eurovision entry: "Kalajoen kaupunki lähettää tsemppaukset Käärijälle - Cha Cha Cha", "Evening Walk at Kalajoki Sand Beach, July 2020, Finland [4K]" and "Kalajoen Venetsialaiset 2013 - Ilotulitus hiekkasärkillä HD 1080". There are commercial storage available, but more common are recycling, flea markets and second hand stores. In fact they are everywhere in various spectrum: "Finnish Flea Market Shopping Ambiance, Kodin Kakkonen, Tampere, Finland".
In that last one, the lighthouse model was a hint that it is somewhere on the coast, but the area also seemed to be all flat. That's what the western coast is like, it is totally flat. That's not so common in other parts of the country. I've lived all my life inland. I once took a train from Tampere to Oulu (5 hours) and I was actually a bit shocked about how flat it is there. Not even a small hill in sight! Here in Tampere, aside from the downtown area, parking lots are sometimes almost the only part that is completely flat. I once heard about some guy who moved from Vaasa to Tampere. He really liked rollerblading. There is that certain category of athletes who go rollerblading 120km just because they don't have anything else to do, he was one of those guys. He was in for a bit of shock when he moved to Tampere, he hadn't thought about it when he decided to move :D
I have my own saying about the road signs here in Finland... "all roads go to Jyväskylä". If you're anywhere in the hundreds and hundreds of kilometers outside the capital ring roads and basically Lapland, you get roadsigns for Jyväskylä. Everywhere, be it relevant for orienting yourself or not, it's crazy. It's not even that big of a city, and this is Finland, where our "cities" are so small that anywhere else they'd be called towns
It's not that weird. It's the fourth largest city outside the Helsinki metropolitan area, and it's much more central than Oulu or Turku. The only one I could see being more common is Tampere, which is also the largest city within a couple hundred kilometres from at least six directions.
Alpine Ski World Cup is in Levi 17 November and winners of the that race are 'given' a reindeer as part of the prize-giving ceremony, then named by the athlete. Mikaela Shiffrin has 7 😅
Note to Geoguessr map creators: You can get the Google street view imagery even though you get Autori first. You usually need to zoom close and sometimes you need to try multiple times before you get the Google car. Of course, there has to be Google imagery of the road. Perhaps the same goes for that Keyframe Finland. Levi: It's 150 km from Rovaniemi to Kittilä and 20 km more to Sirkka where Levi is. Levi is the name of the fell. The Levi resort is the largest ski resort in Finland. Driving from the Rovaniemi airport would take two hours or more. There is also an airport in Kittilä, 15 km from Sirkka! Ähtäri: "Ähtäri" is a difficult name for English speakers. The "h" must be pronounced, and is almost like "ch" in the German word "acht". - There is no currently lithium production in Finland as far as I know. A company called Keliber, now owned by the South African mining giant Sibanye-Stillwater, is pursuing mining and production in Ostrobothnia (Kaustinen and Kokkola).
All the bigger cities have those storage space/garage rental businesses. Usually they also have warehouses in multiple locations, in different parts of the city so that you can choose the one closest to you. But it's not like they would be overly conspicuous, so when you are mainly looking for signs that help you to pinpoint your location in the game, chances are you simply wouldn't notice them. They look like typical warehouses with lots of doors, after all, with the company name somewhere visible, but you'd need to recognise the name to really know what you are looking at.
That last round was tricky, took me way longer to get out of the worse quality cam. On the first round it said Äänekoski right at the beginning, on the smaller building, below Rautia. Also the big advertisement board with the Stiga lawnmowers @2:00 said "Äänekosken K-Raudasta". The imagery was definitely old on the first round as the store is still called Rautia, not K-Rauta and it has the old K logo too that was changed in 2015. All Rautia's were changed to K-Rauta in 2017. @12:38 The second one is pretty close.
i went to levi on a family trip in like 2006 or 2007, i was very young but i was also thinking levi when i saw the street view at first probably because its the only part of northern finland ive been to
18:10 speaking of storage, I have made a "Pelican self storage" map on Geoguessr, if you're interested in playing it. Pelican self storage has self storage locations in Finland, Sweden and Denmark.
It's always amusing to see that when you figure out the Finnish town or city, you often know immediately where it is. Not many Americans can do that :D Did you know that "rauta" means "iron"? That kind of shops are called "rautakauppa" in Finnish, literally "iron shop". K-Rauta is probably the biggest franchise. You were also wondering how to pronounce Levi. Finnish is easy in that way that its writing almost phonetic. "E" is always like in English word "get" and "i" is always like in English word "hit". Long wovels are written with double, so eg. "ii" is like "ea" in English word "beam".
I don't know to be honest. I usually have limited time and when creating titles I've stuck with what seems to works and gets attention. That said, maybe I should mix it up

Massive whiplash from seeing my hometown as the first thing on a random youtube recommendation :D

There is airport in Kittilä, where Levi is. You can fly there instead of Rovaniemi.

its pretty funny tbh its such a small city but still no matter where you are you will find a sign leading to jyväskylä

Rovaniemi to Levi is about 2h at summer and bit more in winter. Usually lots of reindeer on the road too.
can confirm. I have had to dodge many reindeers on that road 😅
@@harjatalonen3467 That's got to be an experience!

I've got to watch this. I love skiing and Finland, so it's on my calendar!
Self storage has gained some popularity and momentum in Finland, there's many companies in most cities and a lot of advertising.

Great info and not many Americans could point to where Finland is on a map... "up there somewhere"
No seqoia's in Finland/europe.
Model is just for north Americans.
Yes - and many in Africa I believe
Why do all your video titles have to point out that you're American? What's the relevance?
It's GeoGuessr. The expectation for what you know about the area you're playing in kinda depends on where you're from.
