My Finnish experience - sports in nature

Picture from Finnish Lapland, Levi

I’m proud Finnish. We own lot of “sisu”. We are proud of it. My experience in Finland is with sports and nature.

Finnish nature is unique, and it offers lot of beautiful landscapes and opportunities to do sports and be somewhere in peace. We are the land of thousands of lakes. In Summer you can enjoy hiking in woods and swimming in clean lake. In Winter you can ski and snowboard. Specially Northen lights are my favorite thing. They are so pretty.

Finnish sportculture is stong and it have roots in our history. Ice Hockey is famous and I have watched many games. Also cross country skiing is on of our biggest winter sports. Finnish are passioned when we support our team and the feeling in competition is amazing. We have saying that it doesn’t matter if we don’t win, if Sweden won’t either. And always when we win something big, we go to celebrate it to the “torille” marketplace.

And you can combine these two. You can do sports in nature, like skiing, jogging and gym, skating, swimming and etc.. Our woods offer a lot. I love that!
