Fun fact: The Porvoo old town hall was featured in the 1997 Bruce Willis movie The Jackal.

The chocolate You bought in Porvoo are from the brand Brunberg, a chocolate and candy factory in Porvoo, over 150 yrs. old. Great times visiting the factory as a kid😊

So nice that you had a good time! Such familiar scenes 😊We live near Porvoo and visit the city almost every week. Tuorilan kotileipomo (Tuorila's Home Bakery) is by the route and we often stop there to buy fresh bread and pastries.

I've born in Porvoo 36 years ago, but had never visited there since then, although i live in Helsinki now. Maybe is time for daytrip in this summer.

I again saw that you had a very good time. That was a good choice for a daytrip because Porvoo is so lovely. Unfortunately I haven't been there for years, I usually just pass it by the highway when I drive to eastern Finland to see my relatives.

That Andrews Bakery waitress explained it so well, it's really hard to translate things like that when we are in a homely restaurant or other service-like setting we (or girls especially) don't even seem to say bye, just thanks but with different intonation, even I as a native had not realized it until she spelled it out, I'm half flabbergasted from this realization.

Fun fact #1. 0:54 Porvoo is officilaly bi-lingual, that's why to sign has two names for the town, Porvoo and Borgå (Swedish). Actually it's the same with Helsinki/Helsingfors. Fun fact#2: To be precise, 3:07 you didn't have a blueberry pie but a bilberry pie :) Bilberries are wild "blueberries", very common in Finland. Smaller, darker and stronger taste.

@JourneywithJenandDrew 10 ай бұрын

Super interesting :) Yeah we made the bilberry/blueberry error in another video as well and a viewer got quite offended 😅. However we had recorded all of these videos before we realized the difference! So interesting. We honestly just thought it was the word for blueberry in Finnish :) Either way, it was DELICIOUS THanks for sharing :)

@@JourneywithJenandDrew Yes some take blueberries very seriously 😁

@jattikuukunen 8 ай бұрын

Most Finns probably don't know that the berries that grow here in every forest (mustikka) are not in fact blueberries in English. I'm still a bit mad since I found out recently. We call American blueberries 'pensasmustikka' (pensas means a shrub or a bench), but most of the time I would just forget that they even exist.

@House_of_Caine 7 ай бұрын

Finnish blueberries taste as amazing as they do, because they're gathered from the forest, rather than grown on a farm.

Vanha Rauma in western Finland (Old Rauma) has similar wooden buildings than Old Porvoo. Old Rauma is much bigger and its also Unesco´s World heritage site unlike old Porvoo. However old Porvoo is more popular because finnish media is so Helsinki concentrated. Thats sad.

We have similar part of city in Kokkola too and in Raahe that is about 120 km north from Kokkola. Those areas are beautifull and nice places to visit at summertime. Day trips in small cities are nice hobby even for finnish people. Such relaxing from the busy bigger cities like Helsinki, Tampere, Turku and Oulu. Of course it´s some times nice to travel any city big or small and spend lovely day exploring around.
