Towards Self-Sufficient Life | NORDIC LIFE #20
Hello, you nature lovers 🥰
In this video, I show a bit of our old, once-forgotten garden that I'm trying to recreate. Our grocery shops are far away so even the thought of being able to harvest from our own yard is amazing 😍
But, since this is North, summer is not summer as how it is supposed to be. But I'm willing to make an extra effort trying to have this garden grow and produce again.
I hope you enjoy this, a part of my world 💚

I'm a nature lover and creative soul living far North of Finland. I live in a remote village, in an old farmhouse, travel in the North, and seek inspiration in the wild nature around me.
I create photographs, videos, and music, inspired by this Nordic nature and its magic.
Welcome to my world 💛

I just love your video's and it's so refreshing to see how you take such pleasure and happiness out of the little things in life, it's not often seen in this crazy world we live in. Thank you!
My goal is to come to a point where no one will knock my door again, telling me that i owe something or that i have to pay for something. I wish you and yours the best.

Wow, that is a wonderful goal. It's funny since it's not that long ago since that was normal people's lives. Things have changed so fast. I hope you get to your goal soon.

Such a precious video!! Thank you for sharing your area with us!!❤
Last summer I found wild mint growing on my land. It has a wonderful taste and is stronger and rather different from the mint we can buy fresh in the supermarkets or the mint seedlings that we can buy, to plant. (NH, USA)
long waiting, ah yet so beautiful that its all worth it, God provides Sanna
💜💜💜
i really enjoy how all your video and commentary has a ring of poetry about it. i imagine you would be a delightful conversationalist. fingers crossed for a good summer harvest!

Delightful video. Your sheer joy admiring and enjoying 🎉nature is refreshing and inspiring. ❤
so 🌱nice🌺thanx🌻🌱
Such Stunningly beautiful scenery. I have very similar reactions to yours when I am out in nature; the beautiful feeling of the stillness and the exhilaration of the air, and just the aliveness of it all. I also love to knit I find it to be very therapeutic, and, like you, I wish I had a wonderful yarn store nearby, so that I didn’t have to order it online, which is not the same as seeing and feeling it in person, when you are making a choice! I love your cozy, living practices, and your adorable little pups!❤
No sorry Sanna here we are experiencing a mini heat wave that has so far lasted us 2 weeks without a drop of rainfall. And the thunderstorms forecast to freshen our winds, did not materialise as expected but inland trees gained from the downpours, so hopefully will top up our rivers with run off. Didn't expect to see more snow fall but as your video points out that is Northern Nordic life for you, expect the unexpected and hope it does not last. Cheers for sharing and take care. From Aberdeen in Scotland.

I’m so sorry to hear you have to deal with those kind of heat waves and drought, it is terrible 😕 Nature does what it best can and eventually will survive, one way or the other 💚

Potatoes are literally free money. I also live in the North of Sweden and potatoes, lettuce and radishes is my go to for the summer. Plus I don't have as much space to grow as you do. 💚 Good luck with the crops this summer! 🌞

I think so, too! We just have to figure out a place to store them in the meantime when they are growing. All the best to you and your crops in North Sweden, that's also a wonderful place to live ☺

Hello Sanna I love watching your channel, and the area where you live is also great, we don't have that here in the Netherlands. I can't wait for the next video. Good luck with the garden, hope it works out Greetings from the Netherlands

How wonderful that you have started your garden. Good luck with it and I wish you a nice harvest from your own garden. 😍❤ If I could I would send you some warmth. I really enjoyed your Vlog 👍 Here in the Netherlands it has been extremely dry for weeks with wind, making it even drier even faster. It is also very hot. We've had temperatures above 30 degrees for a few days now. And in Limburg we are already experiencing the first heat wave. Here I hope it rains soon. But it doesn't look like that's going to happen any time soon.

Aww, thank you so much, Monique 🥰I'm sure I will celebrate our harvest, no matter how large or small, warmly and gratefully. Ugh, that sounds awful. Heat is the worst since there is no way to escape it. I really hope it gets better soon, that is not good for anyone to have it that hot and dry 😥I try to suck some warmth from you up here, maybe it'll get better for both of us, then😁

Nice. You guys are making progress with the new place! Do you compost at home? It's easy to do and it would definitely help your veggies to grow. Good luck 👍

That we will definitely do, but for now we only have garden compost. Next year I hope we can purchase compost for all food waste from our kitchen, too, but they are quite expensive since they need to be good and work throughout the winter, too.
Maybe looking for a ( second hand) serre… I can imagine you ll need it !!
Is it your own music that we are hearing in this video?
It's a wonderful place you've got. What is the age of the house? It looks like it is a traditional Finnish construction. Do you have a sauna?
