00:00Fars, it's time for another Laquatcha.

00:02We're going to have a heart-to-heart talk.

00:05Local blood, but global life!

00:07Yes!

00:08That's why we have Fars Benson Dulos,

00:11our Fars of the World this morning.

00:13And he is joining us all the way from...

00:16Finland!

00:18Hey, Fars!

00:19Good morning, Fars from Finland.

00:22Kuya Kip, we're just in time.

00:25Kaya! I love it!

00:28Fars Benson, how long have you been in Finland?

00:30I've been in Finland for more than 14 years.

00:33Fars Benson, can you greet us in Finnish?

00:38Let me introduce myself.

00:39I am Kamil, and this is Kuya Kip.

00:42I said, welcome to Finland.

00:44I am Kamil and this is Kuya Kip.

00:45How long did it take you to master Finnish?

00:50It took me about five years to master Finnish.

00:56Until now, of course.

00:58I tried to learn Finnish until I started.

01:01He didn't finish it.

01:03Nice one!

01:06Kuya, I like that!

01:08I like that!

01:09So Fars Benson, you're an international marketer there.

01:13So basically, what do you do there?

01:15We have prototypes here.

01:17For example, packaging cabinets, appliances.

01:19We check the market in certain countries.

01:23For example, for Asian countries,

01:25we need to check if the prototypes are qualified

01:29by the standards of a country.

01:31Okay.

01:32So there are international standards, right?

01:34ISQA, etc.

01:36How did you end up in Finland?

01:37Why did you end up in Finland?

01:40I came here as a student.

01:42My brother asked me if I wanted to study in Finland.

01:46I said, of course, Europe, Finland.

01:48I said yes right away.

01:49At that time, I was working in the Philippines.

01:52I had a good job.

01:54But of course, when he said Europe, wow!

01:57The opportunity was there.

01:58I really grew up there.

01:59You grew up there.

02:00Do you have a family there now?

02:03Yes.

02:03Is your husband Filipino or Finnish?

02:06Finnish.

02:07Finnish!

02:08Wow!

02:10I want to see your children.

02:11Is Fars handsome?

02:13Yes, he's handsome.

02:14Are his children pretty?

02:15Did Fars say anything bad about me?

02:16No, he didn't.

02:17I'm just confirming that, Kuya.

02:19I just want to have fun in Finland.

02:21You'll take us there, Benson.

02:23Okay, let's go to Fars.

02:26Wow!

02:27Yellow, yellow, yellow!

02:28Where is it?

02:29It's beautiful in the city center.

02:30That's the old shopping hall.

02:33It looks like a small market but it's inside.

02:37The flea market is in front of it.

02:38It's where the old people used to sell their goods in Katagalugan.

02:41How cold is it in that place?

02:43Fars is here in the heart of Finland.

02:46The temperature is minus 25 degrees.

02:48Minus 25?

02:49Wow!

02:50It's like a refrigerator.

02:51Yes.

02:52Does it freeze almost all year round?

02:55No, it doesn't.

02:56It starts to freeze from November up to March, sometimes until April.

03:03But after that, it starts to freeze in the spring and summer.

03:11There's nothing to do.

03:12It's all morning.

03:13It's all morning.

03:14The sun doesn't set anymore.

03:16Sir, you know what, Benson?

03:18I feel like you're used to the snow.

03:21It's like the snow is gone.

03:23And it's cold.

03:24It's like we're in the jungle.

03:26Where is this, Benson?

03:27It's one of the rapids in Kiminki, Poitili.

03:32It's a river.

03:35It's frozen.

03:36You're right, Mars Ea.

03:38It's very cold.

03:39I can manage here.

03:40There's a heater inside.

03:45There are radiators inside the house.

03:47So, I can manage.

03:48With my thick skin, I can manage.

03:51Do you remember, Mars?

03:53Do you remember the heat in the Philippines?

03:55Yes.

03:56When did you come back here?

03:57Correct.

03:58When did I come back here?

03:59In 2020, the pandemic started.

04:04Of course, I miss the humidity here.

04:07When I enter the sauna here in Finland, I miss the humidity.

04:12You feel dry.

04:13No.

04:14That's why people get old quickly.

04:17Because of the dryness.

04:18That's why they need to moisturize.

04:20Yes.

04:21They need to moisturize and have a sauna to get rid of the odds.

04:25They need to have a sauna.

04:26Bento invented a sauna in Finland, by the way.

04:28Yes.

04:29I invented cartoons also.

04:31Mars, we can see that there's a huge ice bar.

04:35It's like a beach.

04:36Is that a beach?

04:37Yes, it's a beach.

04:39Beach here, Mars.

04:40Where's the water, Mars?

04:42It's frozen.

04:43Mars, the sand turned into ice.

04:45It's all over the place.

04:46What's this, Mars?

04:47It's snowing.

04:48That's where I used to live in the city center.

04:52It's really beautiful.

04:54Those are birch trees.

04:55Hey, we're here.

04:57It's like a shopping mall.

04:58Mars, we're here.

04:59We're here.

05:00Let's go inside, Bento.

05:01What's that, Mars?

05:02That's the city center.

05:03That's where I used to walk during the pandemic.

05:07It's like a ghost town.

05:09Really?

05:10I thought it was you.

05:11Actually,

05:12there's no lockdown,

05:14but there's a restriction when it comes to this city.

05:17People really follow the regulations.

05:20If they say, stay at home,

05:21no one will go outside.

05:23Mars, look at this.

05:24What is this place?

05:25It's beautiful.

05:26There.

05:27That's where the rabbits used to be.

05:29It's frozen.

05:30It used to be all ice,

05:32but I saw that bridge.

05:34So this is the bridge there.

05:36Wow!

05:38Is there an activity you can do here, Mars?

05:40Can you do anything here?

05:41Is it canoeing?

05:43You can do canoeing,

05:45fishing,

05:46digging,

05:47camping.

05:48You can also have a certain license.

05:51And it's free to go to their park.

05:54What's beautiful about Finland

05:56when it comes to leisure,

05:58family,

06:00theme parks,

06:02it's really here.

06:04Wait, let's eat first, Mars.
