Hi I live in Canada, and now am 55. It gives me joy to see that there are still people in Western countries who understand that even though it takes hard work, effort and sacrifice, that there is some younger generations that truly are not held to what is expected as the norm in today's life and how to live. Today's world is getting faster and faster and we are programed in Western society to be lifetime consumers and to be controlled by material things. I have traveled the world, I have seen things I wish I could forget. But I was the happiest in all my life when I realized to take the time and see the beauty in God's creativity and all his creations. To be so lucky to be given the chance and realize and blessed to witness my grandson at the age of 3 see a butterfly for the first time and watch his face and see his reaction, even though I when as a young father was too busy and missed so many first-time things like that, what I see when I watched this video not only reminded me that life is beautiful and better when we take the time to really see the beauty when you can turn off all the world's noise and not only see or feel life but takenthe time to understand and really feel and be connected to life. Thank you for sharing, keep being yourself and do not anything or anyone take or break your spirit of life. Even though I am 55 and my body is weak and my strength is leaving me, I do not need much other than blue skies, the sun, a smile from my wife and a hug from my children and grandchildren, I am happy. ❤

Brilliant socks and mittens! Finland is a beautiful land and so are the people. Bless.

Sanna, I just came across your beautiful channel this evening. Three sets of my grandparents emigrated from Finland to the United States in the late 1890s and my grandfather left Finland at 5 years old, in 1914. He was born in Virrat and still has family in Finland. My mother's side of the family came from up near the Arctic Circle, a town called Pudasjarvi. They settled in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where the climate, terrain, and vegetation is very similar to Finland. We usually get winter in the middle of November and it lasts until the end of April or beginning of May. The hours of light are short in November, December, and January. It is a time to settle in and do handiwork and work on hobbies. I was close to my grandparents and they lived long lives, so I learned a lot about Finnish customs, foods, and rag rug weaving...I have an old loom. I enjoyed seeing the old tools displayed on your wall...recognized an old kantele as well. I am interested in my Finnish heritage and would like to visit one day. For now, I will have to live vicariously through you and your videos. I love your dogs. Pupa, the old girl, is just like a Sheltie I had years ago. Thank you for sharing your life. I'll be waiting for more of your videos.

My mother’s parents came from Pudasjarvi and Taivalkoski Finland and also settled in the UP of Michigan. Her parents never really spoke much English because there were so many other Finn’s in their community. I was fortunate to travel to Finland with my mother. So wild and free, really felt as if one could touch the hand of God there. Their last nam was Waara which was the name given when they can to USA. It was originally Vaara.

I love this mindset of accepting the darkness of winter and letting yourself live differently than you would during the summer. I work at a horse ranch and sometimes I feel like I have to be just as productive and busy outdoors as during the warmer seasons. Of course, some work has to continue but I like this idea of accepting the change and being productive in different ways. Greetings from Colorado! 😊

Yes, it is the nature that hibernates and ''forces'' us to hibernate as well.

What an exquisite scene- as you walked along- your blue eyes, your blue parka and the blues in the shadows of the snow all around you, playing off each other, all in harmony; monochromatic without being monotonous. These momentary glimpses bring me joy and inspiration. As a (sometimes) painter/artist I am very sensitive to colors in this way.

I started to get to know the north of Europe thanks to Jonna Jinton a long time ago, but this place on earth has begun to fascinate me once again. Everything seems to be on the borderline between the real world and fairy tales. Wading in the snow on a cold winter's day, a small cottage with a smouldering fire, forests that grow green every summer. Surrounding oneself with simplicity and delighting in nature. I feel like dropping everything, packing up and setting off on a journey, even though I know it's no fairytale ;) But I do miss the snow in winter. I don't live in the country where I was born, the winters are mild, gloomy and rainy (which also has it's charm, but you have to look for it well sometimes:)), but I would love to lie down on the snow and listen to the silence. And wear warm socks even all year round :)

How do people make a living in these areas? Do they have regular 9-to-5 jobs in that part of the world?

My bucket list includes a trip to Finland to the towns where my grandparents were from. My Dad (RIP) was born and raised in a Finnish community on the north shore of Lake Superior. He only spoke Finnish until he went to school, they lived in a way very similar to yours. While they weren't as far north as you, they embraced the winter months. They would have night ski trips, someone would have a tarp, fire, coffee and food set up halfway on the trail then they would ski back home under the aurora. Kiitos for this video!

I used to dislike and put off weaving the ends, but now here is how I handle it: (1) I make the end-weaving a celebration of completing of the item. (2) I've learned that it takes less than 2 minutes and I feel good to have it done, not havging over my head. (3) try not to start a new item until the previous one is completed. (4) I keep yarn needle or crochet hook with my knitting so that equipment is immediately at hand. (5) I have learned to weave ends with a crochet hook, which I enjoy working more than the needle. I appreciate seeing how you made your pile of end-waving a celebration of sorts. That would have been daunting to me, but you are challenging me to rethink my outlook. 😊

It's important to find joy and bliss in the moments...even in the simplest tasks. You do that well, and inspire us to do so. Wishing you and yours a blissfully blessed New Year! Thank you for sharing your world with us! ~from a new subscriber in the Adirondacks in NY, USA

Kiitos ☺ Welcome to visit our country, there's plenty of space for everyone 🥰

I LOVE your channel! Your photography and videography are so beautiful! I love this particular video. So cozy. Thank you for sharing your "little frozen world" with us.

I just found your channel. Such beautiful countryside and lovely house. Your knitting is so pretty! Thanks for sharing.

I have just discovered your youtube channel and found this video style very similar to Jonna jiniton's videos. A very calm, cozy and heartwarming vlog. I'll be watching your videos regularly now.

Same, here...good stuff!

That is a beautiful place in winter. You knit some great designs on your socks and mittens. I saw some of your beautiful sweaters in a past video. It must not be an easy life there at certain times of the year, but it seems peaceful and rewarding.

Hello, neighbour! 😁

I visited Helsinki from the U.S. Last summer. My favorite memory is when I jumped off the pier into the Gulf of Finland after using the sauna. It was shockingly cold and I was almost screaming with surprise. But after I got out, I was tingling all over and felt wonderfully alive. I've never experienced anything so profound and amazing! Thank you, Finland, and thank you, Sanna, for making this wonderful video!

Amazing, thank you for sharing! I like that we get to see both the beauty and challenges of living there.

Beautifully filmed and edited - you are very creative.

Thank you so much, that's sweet 🥰💙

Your socks and mittens are beautiful.. I come from the UK but love Scandinavian knitting patterns.. I have knitted a few pairs of mittens but have always worried that socks would be too tight with the stranded work so only make plain ones. Thank you for your wonderful video.. it warms my heart ❤️

Thank you 🥰 I think the stranded work makes the socks even better because they last longer with double yarn. But of course, it's a question of opinion ☺

Gorgeous snowy scenery and pink skies. Dreamy.

Pretty knitted socks and mittens. Nordic color way patterns are amazing 💙 looking forward to other podcasts
