Finland. Finland, home of more saunas than people,
and the sauna capital of the world. I thought it might be nice for you American
folks to meet a genuine Finnish person. So here I have with me Jussi, and he works
for Harvia here in Finland.
And why dont you say something in Finnish
Jussi? Jussi: *finnish sentence* Rick: See? You can tell hes a real Finnish guy by
the way he speaks Finnish. I also thought it might be nice for you to
hear a few things about sauna experiences in Finland, and so Im gonna interview Jussi
very quickly with a few basic questions. Number one, Jussi, why dont you tell us
how old is the typical Finnish person when they have their first sauna experience? Jussi: Typically, maybe 1 year, even less. Rick: Less than one year.
Jussi: Yep. Rick: So what do they do, sit on mommys
lap? Jussi: Basically, yeah. Rick: Alright. Jussi: Enjoy the soft teats.
Rick: And like Vikings, do you throw them
in the lake afterwards and make them learn to swim? Jussi: Basically, yeah. Rick: Okay, they start them young here. Jussi: Yeah, cold weather here, yes. Rick: Alright.
So now as a genuine Finnish person, about
how many saunas do you personally take a week? Jussi: Approximately 3 saunas. Rick: He takes 3 saunas a week, and of course
there are many types of saunas, theres a steam sauna, theres a wet sauna, dry
sauna, theres smoke sauna, theres the electric saunas, wood saunas: whats your
favorite type of sauna? Jussi: My favorite type is wood-heated cottage
sauna. Rick: Wood-heated cottage sauna, and they
call them cottages over here, we call them cabins, and everybody has one. Theres more cabins than there are people
in Finland.
Okay, lets say last question here, youve
been usinghow old are you? Jussi: Im 36. Rick: Hes 36, just a baby. Okay, in your lifetime youve been taking
saunas your whole life, how does it make you feel, how does it change your life? Jussi: It helps me to relax. Thats the main point about it.
Rick: And look at him! For a Finnish guy, he couldnt look more
relaxed. So, this is Rick Mouw, Almost Heaven Saunas,
thank you Jussi for joining us. Jussi: Thank you Rick. Rick: And you have a lot of good reasons now
where you wanna consider a sauna, and buy it from Almost Heaven Saunas.
Thank you so much..
