Coming from a country where sunrise and sunset follow almost the same rhythm throughout the year, Finland’s dramatic contrast between day and night was shocking at first but also exceptional. The extremes force you to slow down, to notice time, and to adapt.
I’ve lived abroad and seen the world, but no place feels like home quite like Finland.
Finnishness is not always easy to explain, but it can be felt in everyday moments. In this post, I reflect on what makes Finnish culture special to me.
This is a story of how I was healed by the nature in Finland
Finnishness, the love for beautiful nature, winter sports and sauna.
What does Finnishness mean to me? For me, Finnishness means peace, lots of nature, and sauna.
Living in Finland is a unique and great experience, and a lot of people don’t realise how lucky they are to be there until they move away. The same thing happened to me, and now I fully understand all the advantages I got during my time there, and I can spread them further.
Our unique Finnish nature, culture and four different seasons. These things make Finland important to me.
What makes Finland special? Think endless lakes, deep forests, four different seasons, and a culture that values silence as much as saunas.
The beauties and hardships of moving to Finland.
When people move to Finland, they often describe our culture as unique, peaceful, and deeply rooted in nature. For me, the concept of "Finnishness" is closely linked to the rhythm of the seasons, the connection to the outdoors, and the sense of security that are part of everyday life.
Finnishness is often deeply connected to nature. For many, the forests, lakes, and changing seasons offer a sense of peace and balance. As people grow and experience the contrasts between busy city life and the calm of nature, they begin to understand how important nature is to Finnish identity and culture.
My thoughts on what it means to be a part of Finnish culture... or something of sorts
Because life and cities here in Finland are surrounded by nature, plays nature a big role in Finnish lifestyle and identity.
By keeping the safe distance from everyone, can all find the piece as the naturally built wheel in the ecosystem never stops.
