When a Savonian Speaks, Go on and Give yourself into the Adventure Travel guides may not mention it at all, but the local way of speaking is one of the most striking things travellers can experience in the Kuopio region. The best way to prepare to meet a Savonian person, i.e. someone from the region of Savo, also known as Savonia, is to make sure you have plenty of time, know the right places to go and be there early.
