SHOCKING THINGS IN FINLAND PART 2!!

FINNISH DIFFERENCES 2

Here we are one week more, writting about more shocking things for me in Suomi!!!

1) Doorbell: Last Friday I came to my friend´s house,to celebrate Halloween, the party started at seven o´clock but i was not able to be at that time because of work so I arrived around half past ten, When I was at the door of her bulding I realised that the doorbell didn't work I was like WHAT THE HELL!!! Luckily there was one of her neightbours coming inside too so he opened the door and explained to me that after ten pm the doorbell doesn´t work. Why it can´t work after ten? what´s the point? what if you can´t be earlier?. I seriously can´t find any reasonable argument of why it doesn´t work after ten it seems stupid to me.

2) Windows: Most of the windows in my apartment can´t be fully open, or i can´t even open it at all, how am I supposed to get some fresh air? the amazing thing is that it doesn´t smell bad, what I mean with this is that in my house in Spain if I don´t open the window often the room have a awful smell, but not in Finland, It might have some kind of automatic ventilation somewhere.
Another thing that I miss in the window is the blinds why they don´t use.. is true that in winter time there is not too much sun light so you can perfectly sleep without it, but what about the summer? The sun is sunshine nearly all day long. I had to buy a mask because it was impossible for me to sleep with so much light.

3) Bathroom: When I went to the bathroom for first time I was a bit surprise to see this kind of extra  hose or faucet, I am not sure how to call it. My Finnish friend explained me that you can use it to wash your naugh bits . I am surprise how hygienic Finnish can be.




4) Pantti: I am totally agree with this idea, most of the countries should do the same as Finland, because respect the enivonment and forced you to recicle. When you buy a can or bottle you can get some money back called Pantti, you just have to go to the closest supermarket and insert the can or bottle in a kind of machine that collect all the cans and bottles that you are not using anymore, depends on how many cans do you have you will get more or less money. You get 15 cents for each can, 20 cents for medium size bottles and 40 cents for big bottles. SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? START TO COLLECT PANTTI!!!
