Hey! Im from Finland. Have u ever visited this northern country? I would like to recommend it to all of you with warmth.

>beatiful nature, lots of lakes and plenty of forest
>cosy cities

>culture is so different compared to U.S.

It's a nice place. Other than the capital there's no city worth visiting. According to a study, Finland has the most promiscous girls. So have fun with the blondes!
>>
>very beautiful blonde girls

>Finns
>not Mongoloid

I'm sure it's a troll post but I'm extremely fond of Finland.

> The women are beautiful...they're like chinkier hot ass white girls.
> Promiscuous
> being North American makes you stand out because Finnish men are so afraid to talk to the women
> They're like humbler Swedes (I love Sweden too, don't get me wrong)
> I think it's the most romantic culture in Northern Europe. Like, people still get married at 23 and shit and the women can be very royal. This is in contrast to Sweden, Norway, and Denmark where feminism has gone overboard
> the women don't talk too much because it's Finland
> they're not as rich as the other Northern European countries so I find them a little more down-to-earth
> honestly some of the most beautiful women I've met travelling have been Finnish

I disagree that it isn't worth seeing anything else but the capital. Rovaniemi is a cool student town up north. Turku has a cool vibe. Tampere is a beautiful city/town. Helsinki has an awesome culture if you're into alternative stuff
>>

Also maybe feminism isn't overboard in Denmark. But the women are still very empowered/independent. A lot less so than Sweden and Norway.

Not really true, Fin, Swe & Den are pretty much the same (the only exception is Norway which is on of the richest countries on earth). Finns just don't floss their money and because of lack of (real) aristocracy in the history of Funland, the €'s are more equally divided (not so much old money).
>>
>>1062283
I partly agree with you. All of those countries have the Jante influence but finns making minimum wage just have less disposable income than the Scandinavian countries. For example, the average finn would be middle class in Canada while the average Swede would be upper-middle class.

>>1061980
They are. Obviously a Swedish finn by the border would look more Swedish than most finns but you could argue that Scandinavians all look really similar and the difference only really starts in Finland. They're mongo-uralic or some shit like that.

wtf you talking about, you didn't even bother to google the average income in these two countries. I hate when some foreign that saw a documentary about santa claus thinks he knows everything about the nordic countries.
>>
>>1062338
Lol do you even know what the average means? It takes into account even the richest finns and the poorest ones also bring it down.

I love how you're assuming I just saw a documentary. I've lived in one of them, dated from each one (I'm a norgeboo) and quit work to take my traveling through each and every one one (including the country ass towns). Am I claiming I know everything about them? No. But my experience is more than just anecdotal and of course I can't speak for every single Nordic person in each country. But I made it a point to immerse myself into each one and learn the differences when I was traveling through all of them. Also, my studies focus is (femalelattraction psychology and specifically the differences between northern Europe and North America.

Google the average income in Canada and the US and ask the average person if they actually score mid-top range. The average person doesn't but the richest people bring the average up.

Going to Finland then Estonia mid Jan for two weeks. Friends in Estonia want me to bring some food from America over there. Have any ideas what snacks and stuff I should bring? I was gonna just bring some everyday things like gummy bears and Starburst since I'm not very creative, do you have any idea on what things would go over well and some that would be terrible? Gotta cover all the bases here.
>>
>>1062412
If they're Finnish-Swedes, bring Swedish fish (the candy). It's funny 'cause it's totally not a thing over there. Other than that, US is so regional that it really depends where you're from.

Fucking love being Canadian 'cause we have no culture. I can only really bring maple syrup in situations like this lol
>>
>>1062818
Unfortunately not, they're actual Estonians. Not Fins who went there. I'm in the south west US right now, Arizona specifically. There's some Mexican candy here. It's a spoon with some sweet, hard candy like substance on it but the outside is covered with pepper and spices to make it spicy until it wears off. Do you think that would go over well?

I heard that other countries don't like our milk chocolates so I'm on the fence about bringing those.

OK, so spicy Mexican candies it is. Anything souvenir wise you think would be cool to bring over? It seems most things there are pretty cheap compared to here except electronics and I doubt I'd want to do that.

Oh, I might be able to bring some Doritos. Apparently those are rare over in that area, not sure about Estonia specifically though. As long as I have one decent, new thing it should be alright though.
>>
>>1062941
Honestly, they're probably just happy to have your company. I can't believe I forgot, but ranch chips are a very American thing. It's pretty rich in flavour so they'd probably like 'em. Estonia is wicked, so enjoy! If they're disappointed in whatever you bring just take them out for drinks. I wouldn't sweat it too much.
>>
>>1062953
Im not too worried about not bringing an entire 40L bag of American stuff. Apparently I'm known as "The dude with food" to one person in that group though and wouldn't want to disappoint.

Anything I should do while I'm there in particular? They were gonna show me around but they're in school in Tartu and I'll much more than likely have time on my own. I imagine Saaremaa isn't going to be much outside of a day trip due to the winter time I'm going. They recommended otepaa for skiing but that might be a day or two at most also got 11 days there and really only have five or six mapped out and wouldn't want to miss anything extravagant off the beaten path.

Nope. Like being said, Finnish grills are very promiscuous and will automatically take your benis (:DDDD) in their banginas if you're foreigner.

yes, very. Helsinki and Finland in general are very expensive. But our hotels are usually worth the money.

>>1061666

It's not that finnish men are afraid to talk to women, it's that most of us has realized it's not worth it. Finns have an unwritten social contract of being cold to each other while at the same time appearing to be the friendliest creature on earth to tourists

>>1063848
Don't bring any candy. Finland probably has the biggest variety of candy in the world and the quality is vastly superior to your basic shit. People will taste one, kinda politely nod and say it's good, but in reality they don't like it, especially not pop rocks. Also American chocolate will not compare to the European counterpart.
Bring some obscure Bourbon / other kind of alcohol if you want to make friends.

I get that, maybe it's even true

I'm just wondering...why? What made them be like this? And more importantly, why aren't grills from other countries in Europe like that?
>>
>>1063859
so...you're afraid to talk to women? Lol...just kidding.

>>1063961
Actually, with all the finns I've slept with, none of them were picked up at bars. If I didn't respect the women I'd post pics (I still keep in touch wit ha couple of them)

>>1063975
Drinking is in the culture. It's funny because everyone's actually so cold and then once they start drinking people are hooking up left, right, and centre like they're rolling. Sweden, Norway, and Denmark are also very promiscuous, but they also have bigger populations/get more tourists. So any foreigner will generally be more exotic in Finland.

I also noticed that it was the most romantic out of all the Northern European countries - despite all the hooking up, it seemed like a lot of the women I talked to still genuinely believe in the traditional view of love. I mean people are still getting married in their early 20s and shit and I think because feminism is less "rampant", there's less shame in their partner being part of their identity (ie they'll talk about their partners in their CS profile whereas Swedes are less likely). So if you couple that with the fact that they get so little chances to interact/fall in love, you get a weird love-fuelled promiscuity. Of course, that isn't the case for everyone and some just want to get laid. But I think a lot of it is subconscious.

Nobody likes pop rocks, not even children. That isn't the point. It is just funny to give them to unsuspecting noobs, especially with a drink of Coke.

I agree alcohol makes a good gift if you are staying at someone's house. But carrying around bottles is really heavy, so don't take more than one.

So Germans don't like foods with strong flavors? I'm visiting family in Germany this summer and my one cousin wants me to bring her some American candy. For laughs I was going to bring some atomic fireballs and sour warheads. How badly would they react to this?
>>
>>1064769
It's not only Germans, but the northern/central European palate in general is not used to such extremes. The completely artificial coloring and flavoring agents found in such candy are also generally frowned upon by EU food regulatory bodies.

But even southern European, cuisines are not really that 'spicy' on the whole as say Latin American or Asian. (You might find more peppers and such in southern Italian, southern Spanish or some Balkan cuisines, but overall they are not really that hot.)

As for atomic fireballs, well, they average American would also find it extreme and unbearable... your German cousins even more so, I guess.

I've been living in Germany for 5 years. My girlfriend always complains I make things a little too spicy (whereas I think it's near flavourless). In certain ethnic restaurants, I tell waiters "yes, make it spicy!" and it comes back with all the heat of ketchup...
>>
>>1064782
Ok then fireballs and wareheads are a must. Did you used to live in America? If so could you maybe tell me what American candy they have there so I know what not to bring? I'm guessing things like milky way, snickers, twix, etc are common there.
>>
Jesus Christ dude stop making a mountain out of a molehill lmao
>>
>>1064794
I am American, so yes.

All your standard Mars, Kraft or Cadbury owned candy or chocolate is common enough here. In addition to superior European brands. Peanut butter cups or other peanut butter containing candy is pretty rare, but I also think they don't like it tooooo much.

Hershey's is pretty shit let's be honest, and it is inferior to everything here. So I wouldn't bother bringing it unless you want to make people pity you, lol.

I dunno, swing by Colorado and bring some weed lollipops?

What could also be quite different are Mexican candies, if you're in an area with lots of Mexicans. You know, those mango or tamarind things with a bit of chilli. I think they're nasty, but it's certainly a novelty.

If there is any small local candy companies near you still making their own stuff, that would also be great. Germans will appreciate that a lot more.

Seems pretty good. Bring a few weird things like warheads and pop rocks, which they will hate but are fun. Then also bring some high quality stuff to show, at least some, americans understand that is crap.

Oh, they will probably hate the fireballs even before the heat, also anything root beer flavor. I think it tastes like some horrid medicine they get as kids.

But for fuck sake, don't take marijuana over an international border on a damn commercial flight.
>>
>>1065260
It's weird they don't take to root beer much, as they certainly have a lot of herbal liqueurs and stuff that are up the exact same alley. I've lived in Germany for a while, and I do like root beer now and then. Getting Germans to try it is always fun. Yes it's soda so it's sweet and syrupy (and foamy!), but apart from that, they say it tastes like medicine. And then you get the hurr durr "But vhy iz eet called beer, vhen zer is no alcohol in zis? Verrückte Amis!"

The weed lollipops was a joke, obvs.

Like I said, some local small-scale candy company's offerings will go over a lot better. It's unique as well. Europeans already view Americans as fat sugar-guzzling capitalist slaves to the biggest sugariest fattest companies. An armful of big name internationally available junkfood will only confirm that.
