  • Proud to be a half Karelian <3

  • This is just what I was searching for!  Niilo Kopenen speaks the Karelian dialect of Finnish, and served in Karelia during reconstruction after the second world war. He received a PhD from Harvard, has been a leader in education, Alaska government, and founded the Chena Ridge Monthly Meeting of Friends. I would like to find a way to share it with him in the Pioneers Home, Fairbanks Alaska. Jim Baldridge

  • Isn't that puppy really a doll?!

  • Isn`t Pauliina Lerche (her second name wasn't Lerche those days) the one, who holds a puppy in her hand which has the word "Pauliina" on her forehead, written on a band of rubber?

  • Isn't the young lady on the left of the washboard player, the same one who is in the Seelenikoi,

    Aijo, and Oi Dai videos? On the right side? Many years later? Love this band, I know maybe 10 words in Finnish. Wonder if washboard playing started in Finland. Cajun bands and Jug bands here in America sometimes use them.

  • Ihan vitun mahtavaa.......

    Missä nykyään samoiset porukat, Värttinän tietää kait kaikki, mut ne muut ?

  • I wonder what that says the doll banned?

  • This trad. song has been sung also with lyrics "raastejuustoa, raastejuustoa, isäntä se raapii persettään".

  • Ja heter Risto, and proud of Karelians

  • @MinerWalt

    I believe she is rather board of her job.

  • nice :)

  • @MinerWalt Yes you might be right about Pauliina also - I just can't tell who that might be, if anyone. BTW I just noticed that at the very begin and end of the vid you see a guy sitting in a chair with a bozouki like instrument - that could/would/should be Janne. But why is he sitting - some injury?
