THIS IS FINLAND
Is the anything better than relaxing at your own lakeside sauna?
Well, that’s an easy one.
Because no, there is not.
This summer has been an amazing one and especially weather-wise maybe even the best one I have ever ever experienced in Finland. It’s been steady 25+ degrees and full sunshine all day and night. And I can assure you that I have spent almost all my freetime at our family’s lakeside sauna cottage.
A sauna and a lake, name a more iconic duo I’ll wait.
For me the whole concept of a sauna cottage on the shore of one of the thousands of lakes in Finland represents Finnishness at it’s purest form.
Lakeside sauna cottage or rantasauna, as we call it, is for me a place where I can go to relax and focus. It’s a carefree place. A silent, but yet so alive. There I can really charge my batteries. I can go there alone just to take my mind off everything else or with my family just to be together or hang around there with a bunch of my friends listening to good music and barbecuing .
This is Finland and this is one the reasons why I love it.
