Moved from Latin America to Finland about a year ago, i can say this country is the best i've been so far, everything runs like a clockwork pretty much, people is friendly, respectful, honest but very reserved no one would bother you, crime rate is one of the lowest in Europe, people really respect each other's property here you could leave your stuff unattended on a train, bus or at a bus or train station and when you come back is very likely that it would be there untouched, winter can be harsh tho specially the first one but if you plan to live here you need to become a true "Suomalainen" and embrace the harsh winter and darkness as for the language, well it is kind hard but not impossible after one year living here i understand more than i can talk but you gotta start somewhere i'm currently learning Finnish so i can apply for my Nationality i really want to stay and thrive here.
@@vincenzostr4488 Might be boring but the quality of life is way better, crime rate is very low, is politically and economically stable compared to Latin America which is a political circus and the economy is on the floor, ud siga comiendo mielda halla mijo llore 🤣
@@vincenzostr4488 Yeah, but in Latin America, people have to deal with corruption, bribery, mismanagement, cronyism. They can be irresponsible, undisciplined, disorganized. There's crime, poverty, inflation, to the point where millions have sacrificed their life savings to cross the Rio Grande.
Nah they're happy coz no-one remembers how Finland worked together with Nazis in the ww2. They're happy coz they have always been economically safe thx to FDIs & cushy patent sharing and they don't have to spend much about defence coz America (whom they don't like that much) will protect them. They do their dirty jobs through EU so keeps their hands clean. The media isn't toxic cox they work on destabilizing other countries not them. Their people can just go about their day in bliss coz they never miss real democracy that's tenuous and grinding.
As a Finn watching these videos exploring our culture for the secret of our "happiness" this country seems like some kind of an incredible mythological land. 😂 But one thing I would like to mention is that we tend to focus on solving problems with collaborative effort instead of competing. The summer is quite nice, also the fresh air and pure, drinkable tap water.

The wallet story is definitely the case. I flew into Helsinki and took the train to Riihimäki, an hour north. At my in laws , I realized I left my backpack with computer, passport, Sees candy on the train. By the time, we got back to the train station the train had left back to helsinki. I thought that is the last time I see that. My wife said you will probably get it back. I went to HJK soccer game with a friend and our kids. He says, you will probably get it back. Train goes through like 20 stops before center of Helsinki. I called national lost and found but it had not been turned in. a week before departure, I went to US embassy, guys says hold on a minute. Comes back in 15 and says, they have your bag! I went to the lost and found office . Everything was there, nothing missing. That is real freedom! A great aspect of Finnish culture.
@@admiralbenbow5083 I was talking about crime not social policy, homelessness or unemployment. The report indicates honesty is a part of Finnish culture, its what I have observed as well. Especially, when I compare it to what I've experienced in the US. If you have real data that shows something different let me know.
It is only natural that in a documentary like this you get to see the best sides of everything Finnish. Sure, it is relatively easy to live a good life here but it is just as easy to feel isolated, lonely or depressed as well. If you're looking for happiness then moving to any specific country is not going to be the answer. Some places fit your persona better than others. Still, like I said, while there is a good chance you'd enjoy Finland keep in mind these stories are fairy tales based on true stories :) (I've often heard it said by visitors that we Finns are very friendly people. I am not surprised at all, but it makes me wonder where or how do these people get close enough to a Finn in the first place to be able to have that experience. We're not easily approachable.)
That's exactly what I was thinking while watching this. You can make this kind of documentary about any country because there is always good and bad things, perfect place does not exist. It was interesting to watch though, loved the Heavy Metal culture (hilarious) and the way they treat their prisoners.
Well, thing is though, Finland has been voted as the happiest country in the world some times in a row now. And we have the biggest forests compared to the land space we have, used to be over 70% before at least. And many finns, maybe most of us, dream of having a quiet cabin with sauna at the shore of a lake where there's at least trees, preferrably forests. Damn, why's nobody making the connection between forests and happiness? Are forests so rare in the rest of the world?
The saying “Where ever you go, there you are” is most appropriate here. You are the common dominator! Looking for, searching for happiness outside one’s self is entirely opposite of what one should be doing. Whether in Finland or some other idyllic place around the world, nothing is better than the confines of self.
Very well said, true permanent happiness is found in the inner self, no matter what the outside circumstances are. We should be content with where ever God has placed us and strive to be a good human being.
I got a student visa to study there in 1974, but never went. Thanks to TH-cam I can see now how life in Finland is! Nice people. I hope the refugees don't mess it up like the neighboring countries.
Jesus. If you can’t be happy with refugees then you aren’t creating a country of genuine virtue. Seems a bit more like a rich, low population, super white, and everyone-gets-a-castle cool kid club.
As someone who lives in Denmark, which was also recently declared the happiest country in the world, I asked a colleague of mine how this was possible? His response was, well the government and the media are saying so, end of quote.
You are fine and greetings from Finland. And Yes if you are looking my last name. Some Herlev moved from Denmark to Finland in 1500 but somebody added I to the end
It isn´t really about happiness, I don´t know why they call it that. It is about social security, education, living standards, things like that. If you ping high on those, it is assumed you are happy.
I have been in nagasaki many times. the politeness i see in the restaurants is like a slave to a master. It is not because they wan't to be but because they need to be. Ok, i have only experienced nagasaki airiport services on my way to honolulu. Even though the politeness is very different between Finland and Japan. Also the honesty in Japan comes out of fear, not from their hearts. But like i said this is only my observation. I have been in Finland 4 times and in Nagasaki almost 20.
And i wan't to make sure that my opinion doesn't represent whole Japan. They just act like slaves or servants there in the airport. In Finland when ii asked for scotch whiskey with ice she poured the whiskey and throw the icecube away and said " if you wan't to act classy then act like it". If a waitress did that in Nagasaki she and her whole family would commit seppuku or hara-kiri.
respect from Pakistani traveler to brave Finland, a beautiful country with beautiful landscapes God bless Finland, God Bless Europe Peace,Security ,Prosperity n success to Finland and Europe
I always forget it. Whenever I watch a n American documentary etc, about Scandinavia i forget how very different it is . what we are used to. Like how a Finish minister just casually walks down the street to her office without any bodyguards or anyone making a fuzz about it. What I mean is. I really take it for granted how much more relaxed we have it in our countries in Scandinavia.
Another thing to notice: everything made in Finland is Always a super quality! I am not sure if the rest of Europe knows it, but it never fails to own Finnish product. I only wish we could get more of their stuff in the US.
That has some truth to it, and a simple explanation. Due to the climate, long distances, high wages, small domestic market and a few other reasons, anything produced in Finland will be rather expensive. If you want to export your product, you cannot compete with the price, you must try to make the best product in the market. Nokia succeeded in that for a while (actually still does, but not in consumer products any more).
Shame that after joining Eu, "Everything made in Finland" became less and less. Before to get a finnish flag stamp on your product, it had to be minimum 80% made of finnish product, but over years they lowered it to 50%. Production in Finland is very expensive and taxes and all other expences for business ar very high, so they go to other countries. Now that Finland stopped all trade with russia, they are losing big money and nothing to cover that loss, plus over 1 billion from russian tourists annually. Sanna Marin goverment raised Finland dept by 60 billion, while nothing has improved in 4 years, only worse. Goverment announced that they dont have enough money to keep the road in good condition, so in later years we will have roads full of holes.
Not in biltema tho its infamous for cheap shit that breaks or dont work at all especially the ball point pens they sell but im not sure if the products are actually made in Finland but yeah just wanted to tell you that if you ever come here .ts like a hardware store but you are correct 100%
@@carlosacta8726 definitely, I’d love for us to export whatever the world desires. My interest in Finnish-made products comes from experience; and if our manufacturers were successfully competing with Finland - everyone would win. And, yes, love and respect to Finland!
I was fortunate enough to sail the Baltic, right up to Russia. Called in many ports in Finland and took many sauna's. I experienced ice fishing and diving naked in fresh snow. The people were fantastic and I shared many home cooked meals with them. I actually made three or four videos on here about my experiences. Great country, great people.
They never wear a swimsuit and what swedish and finns cant understand is why americans start foaming at the mouth over a little nudity cos we all got the same thing down there...
@@Kevin-zz9nc Same with many Germans. Especially in Eastern Germany, núdity is nothing to be ashamed for, like not even worth mentioning in several places. There are many "FKK" beach areas (meaning you're supposed to wear nothing). It's a huge cultural aspect. And of course you generally visit sauna, thermal bath etc. without a swimsuit.
I have met a lot of people in person and on video calls. Of course nothing an no one is 100% perfect, but Finnish people are one of the smiling and kindest people. 🙂 And they are interested to do things more in depth, that others just do because it is on work schedule and have to do the bare minimum to get the wage.
I have lived in Canada (close to USA border) all my life and I still don't have enough sunlight in the winter time. I could never live in Finland, but I would like to visit in June or July.
Well, with my husband’s ALONE salary we bought a house in the south of France , so we have 2 - 1 in Finland and 1 in France. And it is 3 hours direct flight to Nice. So what can i tell u - Canada sucks
Finland's alcohol consumption has dropped drastically down in 20 years. Watch the statistics in the video "Country alcohol consumption." In Europe Finland's alcohol consumption is in the middle. The highest alcohol consumption countries in Europe are: The 1st Moldova, the 2nd Lithuania. The 3rd Chechia and the 4th Germany. Forinstance Russia, Latvia, Estonia, Hungary, Romania Belarus, Poland, Portugal, Cypros, Andorra, UK, Ireland, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Austria, Slovakia, Slovenia, Serbia etc. are ahead of Finland.
@@tatianarusmade336 They are Finns who drink alcohol. All the Finns do not do that. Actually percentually Russian ppl drink booze more. Just percentually. I know very well, that all the Russian ppl don't drink booze. I have good Russian friends who don't drink alcohol and good Russian friends who do. The same story goes on with my Finnish friends.
Can confirm the wallet story. Mine slipped out of my pocket on a bus some years ago so I called the bus company who called the driver who picked it up and left it at the HQ. Got it back the next day, not a thing missing.
It's often mentioned that Finns have more mental health issues than average, but partially I think this is because people are honest about how they feel so they are not hiding it by saying something silly like "I'm fine" when they aren't. In fact taking care of ones own metal health is encouraged and affordable, so people are more likely to actually get the help they need instead of just trying to endure it. This of course increases the statistical amount of mental health cases but also means that more are getting help for their problems and are getting better.
@@butterflies655 More than average doesn't mean same as most. Depending on source Finland has depression rate between 5% - 5.6% which puts Finland way above the global average of 3.9%.
The population there is also very small and sustainable because of the cold climate. Very small population in proportion to the natural resources. That's the main reason.
I belive the happines is founded in the trust between people. You saw how people don't fear the long dark roads in the forrest, and that prisoners are out in the free. If everyone are afraid of violence, there is no fondation of happines. Now I don't know how they measure these things, but a common thing between the nordic countries Finland, Norway and Denmark, who have all been awarded as the happiest people are the trust between people. Most of us help each other, instead of robbing each other. Of course there are exeptions, and there are sick people everywhere. But in general people trust each other.
Open you yeses...beautiful picture in this film, that had reclame project for Finland government so as yoing peoples to came out himself country and they want to live in other country Europe...because Finland to call voices other nations, so as population finland men have small then Sweden.
When you walk in streets of Finland you can see how "happiness" shines on their faces.... it getting harder and harder with each year here. But people will make it anyways. "Russian threat" is the last thing we ordinary working folks are worrying here.
Inhave walked into the streets of Helsinki! I feel terrible that you or the Russians or the Ukrainians have yo come to a point of hostility. Nordic people are the nicest people I know. It is painful to see this kind of hostility. I curse those who promote it. I pray for you all! I tame death for granted. I wish those sick bustards in power would feel the same. Wish happiness fi Finns, Russians, Ukrainians. I curse those who caused it. Bless you all!
Lol :D Honestly this whole happiness thing is misundestood. Organization that measures this calls their system Happiness index, but even they say it's not about happiness really, it's about satisfaction on your country, feeling of safety, trust in government and other people etc. It's not about how cheery and smiling the people are.
Probably the definition of the happiness index is closer to that; "the expected life prospects at birth, in the country you were born in" - and not how much you smile a day.
I would definitely like to thank the Finns for their metal music. Melody work, especially. Might even try dipping cheese in my coffee. I love both those things, but not so sure about tainting my black coffee.
I had the luxury of visiting Finland a month ago and indeed the Finns are friendly and helpful people who seemed contented and happy. I'm glad that the Russian threat while near in proximity, have not affected this greatly. Would love to share this with everyone through the videos on my channel.
Русским не нужна финляндия, это фины смотрят на русскую карелию с завистью. Поэтому и с Гителром сдружились, за что и поплатились. Прежде чем ерунду про русскую угрозу писать историю читайте из разных источников
the Russian threat is a fiction. and if the Finns were able to reflect, analyze, they would have guessed that Brussels and Washington were deceiving them. After all, tourists and students from Russia have been visiting Finland en masse for the last 20 years. and Finns know the Russian people. For 20 years they have been smiling at the Russians and established good neighborly relations with them! and then suddenly from somewhere came the talk about the Russian threat .... nonsense!
@@dBoogieNights Actually nobody asked Fins, there was no referendum. The partygirl just wanted to join and that's it. Her husband I even said months ago that her husband will divorce and he did... Don't elect hookers.
Kudos to Finland, best part is that the politicians are not treated any different from the common man, and consider political career as a service to the nation. 👍👍
Turn off the CNN/MSNBC, friend. Much of the world--including a fair number of U.S. citizens--does not agree with the American government's pro-war propaganda. That does not make us "bots"; it makes us humane and well informed.
finland is absolutely NOT an endless winter with no sun. even this summer the 25c+ (77f) srted from the beginning of march and lasted till start of october and in like june/july it's light outside 24/7
That happiness index is not about personal happiness but about the quality of the society regardin education, healtcare, crime and corruption and more. All five Nordic countries do well, all within the top ten, and that should tell you all about it.
A question for the Finns in the comments. Do you realistically think Finns are the happiest or is it somewhat skewed or something? I have never been my a close Finnish friend has told me that currently lives there that it isn’t what it appears on the rankings. She said seasonal depression is very common and there’s major issues with domestic violence and divorce. I can’t speak for it again since I don’t live there but she said it’s still more conservative than other Euro countries. She said majority of her girl friends have been dealt with abuse from male partners but it’s kinda still don’t ask don’t tell policy in many cases. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!
Our society is well organized and has the potential to make its citizens happy. It's a safe and equal country for men and women. Our nature is lovely and clean. So, why wouldn't we be happy? On the other hand, there is a lot of loneliness and mental problems that come along with it. People are reserved and often inflexible. Rules are observed to the smallest detail. This makes the society work well, but for an individual it can be very frustrating sometimes. Finns are also independent from early on, and family bonds are not that strong. Rural areas can be really conservative, but Helsinki area is quite the opposite.
I have never heard any of my friends having dealt with domestic violence. Those that deal with it have chosen their partner really badly or alcohol/drugs are involved
@@Jipsuli1 I definitely noticed my friend that even her friends etc don't seem to have as close bonds as other Europeans and Westerners. While its not true for all cases I felt as though my fellow Americans were more positive and optimistic about general things but idk. I have been able to help my Finnish friend be more positive and cheerful about things throughout the time. Do you think Finns are happier than Swedes or Norwegians for example? I've met quite a few Swedes and Norwegians but always felt like they on average seem more happy and willing to talk with strangers. Again, I haven't been to Finland in general but I was trying to see if there was some disconnect or whatnot going on. My friend was bullied and harassed on campus and her trans-friend also was attacked recently at a bar and hate talk but they were in the Turku region. I would like to visit soon but was trying to get a better understanding of things over there
@@newzinski6946 Finnish culture is nordic as is Swedish and Norwegian. We have shared the same religion and history. No big difference there culturally in my opinion. However, Finns have experienced traumatic wars and we are still affected by it. The Life and living conditions of past generations have been tough compared to their Nordic brothers and sisters. I work with young Finns, and they don't share this burden anymore. They are privileged in so many ways.
@@Jipsuli1 Hmm yeah my Finnish friend said Finland used to be viewed as lower class almost slave like under Sweden's height. I got in an argument with a Swede on YT how the West and U.S. criticize Sweden for always being neutral esp during WW2 when Norway and Denmark resisted heavily and continued to fight under occupation. And the fact Norway always seems ready to stand up against world aggression being an early NATO member etc. He downplayed and said Finland likes to think they were slaves under Sweden but never were and the books and that modern Finns don't believe in it. While I have studied World and ancient history my forte is in Roman, Greek, Asian, Western, Eastern Europe and not too heavy in Nordic/Scandinavian. Only thing I really knew was either Denmark, Sweden, Norway, etc were on top of each other during different rulers and time periods. I did learn about the Winter War somewhat but my knowledge of Finland/Sweden relations is very limited. From an outside view most Westerners clump all those countries as "Scandinavian" and very friendly with each other.
they are hyping this russphboic western media propganda. WOW RUSSIA WANT TO INVADE EUROPE! IT WILL NOT STOP AT UKRAINE! ffs. how western sheeps are this dumb? like i know they are sheeps and caddle. but this is next level. WHAT ON FUCKING EARTH DOES RUSSIA BENEFIT OF INVADING FINLAND????

Update the statistics!
@@cinderellaandstepsisters My friend wasn't entirely serious with his statement. I think the main reason is actually alcohol. And hell yes, they drink a lot although it's darn expensive to drink there.
In Finland we have nightless summer . In summertime the foreigners have difficulties to sleep ? No nights ! Only sunny sauna weekends by the clean lakes.
It is true, but you have nightless summers in all of Scandinavia and northern Russia and Canada and Alaska. They are all beautiful! Not sure if all of them got Sauna which is very Finnish and probably the biggest Finnish cultural influence so far! It is lovely!
I think the word "happy" has various meanings, so it's not right to say the Finns are the happiest...BUT.. Finland has all the right infrastructure for the people to be happy in terms of good nature, civil rights and natural resources. But on the individual level, people might still be suffering. Some countries don't have the right happiness infrasturcture to begin with, e.g Afganisthan, Iraq due to the wars and terrorism, so compared to that Finns seem to be better.. On the other hand Bhutan has also claimed to be one of the happiest countries due to their minimalist living, natural resources, spirituality influenced by Buddhism and cleanliness...
Maybe they are happy because they create successful families, they are not rich but they don't worry about paying healthcare and education, they concentrate on family life.
Russian Threat? Since 1945, the fins had a peaceful relation with USSR and then Russia. They were neutral from political point of view and, economically both countries were benefiting from. These things of course will change since joining Nato; an ancient organization which is trying hard to find a reason for its existence.
You haven't heard airspace violations and GPS jamming ? Sweden has been also bullied with simulated nuke attacks (since 2013), those are not nice. Russia has threatened Finland and Sweden military action but also other countries: Invading Baltic countries, Poland, Moldova,Istanbul, Alaska and East side of Germany. Nuking several towns and locations: London, Washington, Yellowstone and Hague. Medvedev said a few days ago “Ukraine will be removed from the map". Russia, such a nice and peaceful neighboring country. Russia shouldn't wonder why everyone joins NATO, Russia can look in the mirror
Since 1945? What are you a joke? Have you ever heard of Russian-Finnish war in the last century and it’s reasons? How Russians were trying to take over Finland like they were trying with all the countries of were Soviet Union tried to take control over? Good luck with that! )))😊
To all the comments saying something about finnish high suicide rates? Do your homework! Finland was 59th highest on the most recent study on suicide rates by countries! We might've had high suicide rates in the 90's and early 2000's but we worked on it and it bore fruit! So please stop talking about "high finnish suicide rates" since that's not simply true anymore.
Not even that high anymore. Watch the statistics in the video "Comparison suicide rates by countries/Country suicide rate comparison." 62 highest suicide countries and Finland is not even mentioned.

Welcome to visit. Finland is a prosperous Nordic country with Sweden 🇸🇪 Norway 🇸🇯 Denmark 🇩🇰 and Iceland 🇮🇸 They all have a high standard of living. Beautiful countries as well.
Paris is bigger than Helsinki in terms of population and metropolitan area size. * Population: Paris has a significantly larger population than Helsinki. * Metropolitan Area: The Paris metropolitan area is also much larger and more extensive than Helsinki's.

This video has to be very inaccurate because my girlfriend is Finnish and she told me many younger Finnish people struggle with depression and isolation it is also normal for people from Finland to go to therapy, she goes to therapy as well and she is recovering from depression. The suicide rate over there is also high, so there is really something wrong with calling Finland as the happiest country...
Thats true but it doesnt mean that other countries have it the same. Theres also might be the difference to know there is a problem versus not to acknowledge it at all in some other countries. I too have some personal experience to this. Some decades ago no one even knew you can be depressed, let alone talk about it (so there was no problem in a way) - these days depression and other mental issues are better recognized and they are not a tabu anymore either. So yeah, things rarely are black and white. And what comes to depression, on a personal level, the long nights at winter certainly doesnt make things easier ... but the long days in summer do.

The MYTH of Finnish suicide rates! Finland was the 59th place on the "List of countries by suicide rate" WIKI page. The Suicide rates have dropped significantly since the 90's and that's purely a myth nowadays (Finland having high suicide rates)

Some Americans would rather die then have certain Finnish policies implemented here in the US. Such close minded people are beyond help. In fact, the very same people would like instead what Russia or Hungary is doing in their countries to be done here in the US. Now that is a fate worse than death.
I agree with you, as a resident of Crimea, I fully support the policy of Russia to strengthen its sovereignty. I myself am a Ukrainian by nationality, we have a lot of Ukrainians in Crimea, but we are all for Russia, we have an all-Russian identity.

Moved from Latin America to Finland about a year ago, i can say this country is the best i've been so far, everything runs like a clockwork pretty much, people is friendly, respectful, honest but very reserved no one would bother you, crime rate is one of the lowest in Europe, people really respect each other's property here you could leave your stuff unattended on a train, bus or at a bus or train station and when you come back is very likely that it would be there untouched, winter can be harsh tho specially the first one but if you plan to live here you need to become a true "Suomalainen" and embrace the harsh winter and darkness as for the language, well it is kind hard but not impossible after one year living here i understand more than i can talk but you gotta start somewhere i'm currently learning Finnish so i can apply for my Nationality i really want to stay and thrive here.

The wallet story is definitely the case. I flew into Helsinki and took the train to Riihimäki, an hour north. At my in laws , I realized I left my backpack with computer, passport, Sees candy on the train. By the time, we got back to the train station the train had left back to helsinki. I thought that is the last time I see that. My wife said you will probably get it back. I went to HJK soccer game with a friend and our kids. He says, you will probably get it back. Train goes through like 20 stops before center of Helsinki. I called national lost and found but it had not been turned in. a week before departure, I went to US embassy, guys says hold on a minute. Comes back in 15 and says, they have your bag! I went to the lost and found office . Everything was there, nothing missing. That is real freedom! A great aspect of Finnish culture.
Lucky you vacationed in most honest country. I'm so glad you found it.
Migrants and foreigners will change this and in fact already have. They don't understand clean, honest living, especially Turks.
True. Reader's digest made the wallet test. Finns retuned the lost wallets most back to their owners with all the money and papers untouched.
You were lucky. Its not a `feature of Finnish culture`. There are just as may free loaders in Finland as any other rich country.
@@admiralbenbow5083 I was talking about crime not social policy, homelessness or unemployment. The report indicates honesty is a part of Finnish culture, its what I have observed as well. Especially, when I compare it to what I've experienced in the US. If you have real data that shows something different let me know.
It is only natural that in a documentary like this you get to see the best sides of everything Finnish. Sure, it is relatively easy to live a good life here but it is just as easy to feel isolated, lonely or depressed as well. If you're looking for happiness then moving to any specific country is not going to be the answer. Some places fit your persona better than others. Still, like I said, while there is a good chance you'd enjoy Finland keep in mind these stories are fairy tales based on true stories :)
(I've often heard it said by visitors that we Finns are very friendly people. I am not surprised at all, but it makes me wonder where or how do these people get close enough to a Finn in the first place to be able to have that experience. We're not easily approachable.)
One my teacher's was Finnish, Mrs Curry.
That's exactly what I was thinking while watching this. You can make this kind of documentary about any country because there is always good and bad things, perfect place does not exist. It was interesting to watch though, loved the Heavy Metal culture (hilarious) and the way they treat their prisoners.
Well, thing is though, Finland has been voted as the happiest country in the world some times in a row now. And we have the biggest forests compared to the land space we have, used to be over 70% before at least. And many finns, maybe most of us, dream of having a quiet cabin with sauna at the shore of a lake where there's at least trees, preferrably forests. Damn, why's nobody making the connection between forests and happiness? Are forests so rare in the rest of the world?
@@MikkoMurmeliLiving in Saudi Arabia, there is barely any grass here let alone forests. And it can reach 40C degrees. Nature is taken for granted😅.
The saying “Where ever you go, there you are” is most appropriate here. You are the common dominator! Looking for, searching for happiness outside one’s self is entirely opposite of what one should be doing. Whether in Finland or some other idyllic place around the world, nothing is better than the confines of self.
Amen to that!
Very well said, true permanent happiness is found in the inner self, no matter what the outside circumstances are. We should be content with where ever God has placed us and strive to be a good human being.

Finnish act and live very similar to Japanese. Especially honesty and politeness.
the exact opposite of their easterly neoighbours
I have been in nagasaki many times. the politeness i see in the restaurants is like a slave to a master. It is not because they wan't to be but because they need to be. Ok, i have only experienced nagasaki airiport services on my way to honolulu. Even though the politeness is very different between Finland and Japan. Also the honesty in Japan comes out of fear, not from their hearts. But like i said this is only my observation. I have been in Finland 4 times and in Nagasaki almost 20.
And i wan't to make sure that my opinion doesn't represent whole Japan. They just act like slaves or servants there in the airport. In Finland when ii asked for scotch whiskey with ice she poured the whiskey and throw the icecube away and said " if you wan't to act classy then act like it".

I always forget it. Whenever I watch a n American documentary etc, about Scandinavia i forget how very different it is . what we are used to. Like how a Finish minister just casually walks down the street to her office without any bodyguards or anyone making a fuzz about it. What I mean is. I really take it for granted how much more relaxed we have it in our countries in Scandinavia.
Finland is not Scandinavian, but is Nordic.
Another thing to notice: everything made in Finland is Always a super quality! I am not sure if the rest of Europe knows it, but it never fails to own Finnish product. I only wish we could get more of their stuff in the US.
That has some truth to it, and a simple explanation. Due to the climate, long distances, high wages, small domestic market and a few other reasons, anything produced in Finland will be rather expensive. If you want to export your product, you cannot compete with the price, you must try to make the best product in the market. Nokia succeeded in that for a while (actually still does, but not in consumer products any more).
Shame that after joining Eu, "Everything made in Finland" became less and less. Before to get a finnish flag stamp on your product, it had to be minimum 80% made of finnish product, but over years they lowered it to 50%. Production in Finland is very expensive and taxes and all other expences for business ar very high, so they go to other countries. Now that Finland stopped all trade with russia, they are losing big money and nothing to cover that loss, plus over 1 billion from russian tourists annually. Sanna Marin goverment raised Finland dept by 60 billion, while nothing has improved in 4 years, only worse. Goverment announced that they dont have enough money to keep the road in good condition, so in later years we will have roads full of holes.
Not in biltema tho its infamous for cheap shit that breaks or dont work at all especially the ball point pens they sell but im not sure if the products are actually made in Finland but yeah just wanted to tell you that if you ever come here .ts like a hardware store but you are correct 100%
I appreciate your comment. However, as an American I'd like for us to make and export the best products everywhere!! But hey, love to Finland!
@@carlosacta8726 definitely, I’d love for us to export whatever the world desires. My interest in Finnish-made products comes from experience; and if our manufacturers were successfully competing with Finland - everyone would win. And, yes, love and respect to Finland!
I was fortunate enough to sail the Baltic, right up to Russia. Called in many ports in Finland and took many sauna's. I experienced ice fishing and diving naked in fresh snow. The people were fantastic and I shared many home cooked meals with them.

@@Kevin-zz9nc Same with many Germans. Especially in Eastern Germany, núdity is nothing to be ashamed for, like not even worth mentioning in several places. There are many "FKK" beach areas (meaning you're supposed to wear nothing). It's a huge cultural aspect. And of course you generally visit sauna, thermal bath etc. without a swimsuit.
I have met a lot of people in person and on video calls. Of course nothing an no one is 100% perfect, but Finnish people are one of the smiling and kindest people. 🙂 And they are interested to do things more in depth, that others just do because it is on work schedule and have to do the bare minimum to get the wage.

Can confirm the wallet story. Mine slipped out of my pocket on a bus some years ago so I called the bus company who called the driver who picked it up and left it at the HQ. Got it back the next day, not a thing missing.
From Georgia in the USA,I can't imagine how that must feel!
It's often mentioned that Finns have more mental health issues than average, but partially I think this is because people are honest about how they feel so they are not hiding it by saying something silly like "I'm fine" when they aren't. In fact taking care of ones own metal health is encouraged and affordable, so people are more likely to actually get the help they need instead of just trying to endure it. This of course increases the statistical amount of mental health cases but also means that more are getting help for their problems and are getting better.
Finland is a dead country

A question for the Finns in the comments. Do you realistically think Finns are the happiest or is it somewhat skewed or something? I have never been my a close Finnish friend has told me that currently lives there that it isn’t what it appears on the rankings. She said seasonal depression is very common and there’s major issues with domestic violence and divorce. I can’t speak for it again since I don’t live there but she said it’s still more conservative than other Euro countries. She said majority of her girl friends have been dealt with abuse from male partners but it’s kinda still don’t ask don’t tell policy in many cases. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!
Our society is well organized and has the potential to make its citizens happy. It's a safe and equal country for men and women. Our nature is lovely and clean. So, why wouldn't we be happy? On the other hand, there is a lot of loneliness and mental problems that come along with it. People are reserved and often inflexible. Rules are observed to the smallest detail. This makes the society work well, but for an individual it can be very frustrating sometimes. Finns are also independent from early on, and family bonds are not that strong. Rural areas can be really conservative, but Helsinki area is quite the opposite.
I have never heard any of my friends having dealt with domestic violence. Those that deal with it have chosen their partner really badly or alcohol/drugs are involved
@@Jipsuli1 I definitely noticed my friend that even her friends etc don't seem to have as close bonds as other Europeans and Westerners. While its not true for all cases I felt as though my fellow Americans were more positive and optimistic about general things but idk. I have been able to help my Finnish friend be more positive and cheerful about things throughout the time. Do you think Finns are happier than Swedes or Norwegians for example? I've met quite a few Swedes and Norwegians but always felt like they on average seem more happy and willing to talk with strangers. Again, I haven't been to Finland in general but I was trying to see if there was some disconnect or whatnot going on. My friend was bullied and harassed on campus and her trans-friend also was attacked recently at a bar and hate talk but they were in the Turku region. I would like to visit soon but was trying to get a better understanding of things over there
@@newzinski6946 Finnish culture is nordic as is Swedish and Norwegian. We have shared the same religion and history. No big difference there culturally in my opinion. However, Finns have experienced traumatic wars and we are still affected by it. The Life and living conditions of past generations have been tough compared to their Nordic brothers and sisters. I work with young Finns, and they don't share this burden anymore. They are privileged in so many ways.
@@Jipsuli1 Hmm yeah my Finnish friend said Finland used to be viewed as lower class almost slave like under Sweden's height. I got in an argument with a Swede on YT how the West and U.S. criticize Sweden for always being neutral esp during WW2 when Norway and Denmark resisted heavily and continued to fight under occupation. And the fact Norway always seems ready to stand up against world aggression being an early NATO member etc. He downplayed and said Finland likes to think they were slaves under Sweden but never were and the books and that modern Finns don't believe in it. While I have studied World and ancient history my forte is in Roman, Greek, Asian, Western, Eastern Europe and not too heavy in Nordic/Scandinavian. Only thing I really knew was either Denmark, Sweden, Norway, etc were on top of each other during different rulers and time periods. I did learn about the Winter War somewhat but my knowledge of Finland/Sweden relations is very limited. From an outside view most Westerners clump all those countries as "Scandinavian" and very friendly with each other.

@@user-Graf664 Pfft Russian fascists are to busy fertilizing Ukrainian fields. What was it, 3 days to Kyiv? 🤣 They would last a week against NATO.
My Finnish friend told me that Finland is the happiest country in the world because all the unhappy ones commit suicide. 😁
might be some truth to that for the whole Scandinavia
thats nice marketting from the finn governement... how can you be happy in this shitty location? always cold and snow?
Watch the statistics in the video "Comparison suicide rates by countries/Country suicide rate comparison."
62 highest suicide countries and Finland is not even mentioned.
The highest suicide countries are: The 1st Russia the 2 nd South Korea, the 3rd Kazakstan, the 4th Ukraine and the 5th Japan.
Finland's suicide rates have gone drastically down in 30 years. Update the statistics!
We have more saunas than cars ! We Have a saying - Viedä saunan taakse - that takes care of the - as solution !
@@cinderellaandstepsisters My friend wasn't entirely serious with his statement. I think the main reason is actually alcohol. And hell yes, they drink a lot although it's darn expensive to drink there.
Terveytta!,, девчонки супер!!!👌🌹👍🇫🇮
In Finland we have nightless summer . In summertime the foreigners have difficulties to sleep ? No nights ! Only sunny sauna weekends by the clean lakes.
It is true, but you have nightless summers in all of Scandinavia and northern Russia and Canada and Alaska. They are all beautiful! Not sure if all of them got Sauna which is very Finnish and probably the biggest Finnish cultural influence so far! It is lovely!
I think the word "happy" has various meanings, so it's not right to say the Finns are the happiest...BUT.. Finland has all the right infrastructure for the people to be happy in terms of good nature, civil rights and natural resources. But on the individual level, people might still be suffering. Some countries don't have the right happiness infrasturcture to begin with, e.g Afganisthan, Iraq due to the wars and terrorism, so compared to that Finns seem to be better.. On the other hand Bhutan has also claimed to be one of the happiest countries due to their minimalist living, natural resources, spirituality influenced by Buddhism and cleanliness...
Maybe they are happy because they create successful families, they are not rich but they don't worry about paying healthcare and education, they concentrate on family life.
It comes from general living standards, not from family unit. Finland´s birth rate is very low.

Russian Threat?
Since 1945, the fins had a peaceful relation with USSR and then Russia. They were neutral from political point of view and, economically both countries were benefiting from. These things of course will change since joining Nato; an ancient organization which is trying hard to find a reason for its existence.
You haven't heard airspace violations and GPS jamming ? Sweden has been also bullied with simulated nuke attacks (since 2013), those are not nice. Russia has threatened Finland and Sweden military action but also other countries: Invading Baltic countries, Poland, Moldova,Istanbul, Alaska and East side of Germany. Nuking several towns and locations: London, Washington, Yellowstone and Hague. Medvedev said a few days ago “Ukraine will be removed from the map". Russia, such a nice and peaceful neighboring country. Russia shouldn't wonder why everyone joins NATO, Russia can look in the mirror
Since 1945? What are you a joke? Have you ever heard of Russian-Finnish war in the last century and it’s reasons? How Russians were trying to take over Finland like they were trying with all the countries of were Soviet Union tried to take control over? Good luck with that! )))😊
Finnish education system belong to ones from the best and most effective in the world. I'd love to have such one in Poland. Greetings.

To all the comments saying something about finnish high suicide rates? Do your homework! Finland was 59th highest on the most recent study on suicide rates by countries! We might've had high suicide rates in the 90's and early 2000's but we worked on it and it bore fruit! So please stop talking about "high finnish suicide rates" since that's not simply true anymore.
In Russia Z.. They Do it a Lot.. Suicide Zquadz...
Not even that high anymore. Watch the statistics in the video "Comparison suicide rates by countries/Country suicide rate comparison."

Happiness cannot be quantified in percentage. It's such an abstract area of human psyche.
Finland is built more with the fokus on the people of Finland and that is the reason why it is the most happy. It would be better to say it is the best country in the world. I would move there if it was not for the language.
Exactly. Some people are happiest when whining about something. 😂
@@54031f I talked about language, you talk about weather. It is like answer a question nobody is asking for.

Mózg jest straszną rzeczą, kiedy kończy się niepowodzeniem. Biedni ludzie nawet nie zdają sobie sprawy z tego, co się dzieje. Naprawdę uważam, że życzliwością byłoby pozwolić ludziom w zaawansowanym stanie demencji otrzymać dużą dawkę morfiny, położyć się w ciepłym łóżku w miejscu, w którym czują się bezpiecznie i pozwolić im spać na zawsze. Demencja to bardzo okrutna przypadłość i smutne jest obserwowanie jej skutków dla osoby cierpiącej, rodzin i osób, które zostały przypadkowo nią dotknięte.
En la actualidad Rusia nunca amenazó a Finlandia. Ahora con su anexión a la OTAN, pueden llevar armamento y eso si es una amenaza para Rusia, que no se quedará con los brazos cruzados. Entonces quién amenaza a quién?

I can only dream about having such strong community solidarity and respect for each other. I wish our folks in Russia had been this respectful, sane, smart. I have been abroad a lot of times: folks ARE different. Perhaps some of you will say this is exaggerated or everyone is the same around the world. Nah, people are different, there's a reason Russians are hated in Finland.

Paris is bigger than Helsinki in terms of population and metropolitan area size.
* Population: Paris has a significantly larger population than Helsinki.
* Metropolitan Area: The Paris metropolitan area is also much larger and more extensive than Helsinki's.
However, it's worth noting that Helsinki is a vibrant and modern city with its own unique charm and a high quality of life.

As a Finn, never understood the point for going to "avanto" (the cold water) ...imho stresses the body for no reason. These "cold baths etc" are just a current fad.
This video has to be very inaccurate because my girlfriend is Finnish and she told me many younger Finnish people struggle with depression and isolation it is also normal for people from Finland to go to therapy, she goes to therapy as well and she is recovering from depression. The suicide rate over there is also high, so there is really something wrong with calling Finland as the happiest country...
true , drugs , alcohol and no social contacts , no faith . money doesnt make you always happy. they usualy dont eat at each other houses ....
Thats true but it doesnt mean that other countries have it the same. Theres also might be the difference to know there is a problem versus not to acknowledge it at all in some other countries. I too have some personal experience to this. Some decades ago no one even knew you can be depressed, let alone talk about it (so there was no problem in a way) - these days depression and other mental issues are better recognized and they are not a tabu anymore either. So yeah, things rarely are black and white. And what comes to depression, on a personal level, the long nights at winter certainly doesnt make things easier ... but the long days in summer do. Also awareness of things can be a curse.
Obviously there is a depression where there is hard rock music!
The MYTH of Finnish suicide rates! Finland was the 59th place on the "List of countries by suicide rate" WIKI page. The Suicide rates have dropped significantly since the 90's and that's purely a myth nowadays (Finland having high suicide rates)
I like when in these videos they say “study shows that…” 😂 What study? United Nations bla bla bla 😂 It’s like to believe to WEF that climate change it’s my fault. Fuckin clowns 🤡
The reason we are happy is because we have russia as our neighbour. Makes us humble and appreciate peace.

It is true, but there is a problem major in Finlan. It is the increase of consume of drugs, in the nights you can suffer damage of them
Some Americans would rather die then have certain Finnish policies implemented here in the US. Such close minded people are beyond help. In fact, the very same people would like instead what Russia or Hungary is doing in their countries to be done here in the US. Now that is a fate worse than death.
