    Its the little things in life that really make a difference. Fishing is a great example of it; Started fishing with my work mates during the summer and we also go ice fishing during the winter. Doesnt matter if you dont catch anything, its just relaxing and fun thing to do. Sauna and sauna at a peaceful lake summer cottage is perfection. Take ice cold Lonkero with you and youve basically hit the peak of life. Also the best thing about being a Finn and living in Finland is that you can actually go about in your day without having to small talk your way each moment you see a neighbor or whatever. If you dont actually care about my day, dont pretend to.
  • Finnish ppl are so lovely, if i ever move from sweden its either finland or norway for me😊❤
  • My Finnish happiness recipe is: 1) Stop worrying about things you can't influence and 2) enjoy all the things you have in your possession and stop envying and pursuing after things that are not realistically achievable. Some may call it a lack of ambition, but that ambition of getting better in everything leads to numerous disappointments and through that into depression. But that's only my logic, maybe my happiness is still because of coffee, sauna and nature.

    Nordic happiness is probably being grateful for what you already have and not chasing something else all the time.
  • @SinaFarhat
    Nice! Seeing that snowy winter weather however makes me happy that its spring in Sweden and things are getting green and nice warm sunlight!
  • @bjornbear6856
    Fantastic video Natasha! You always deliver high quality and entertaining videos. I think the nordic countries are very similar to each other regarding weather and lifestyles. As you said, the access to nature (and coffee 😆😂) is important. The "downside" to living here is the long, dark winter. If you're not used to the darkness it can weigh heavily on your mind and depression is a factor to be aware of. That's why it is so important to us to celebrate the light, the sun. There's nothing like having a fika in the sun... Be safe my friend

    Thank you Natasha! You are so wise🧘‍♀ in your words: And beautiful from the inside out!
  • @michael7054
    Great video! I enjoyed watching! I think Finland and also Sweden and Norway have a lot of things going for them that makes them happy countries. Nice nature, pretty countries, a lot of fun things to do i think, nice museums, ect.. A lot of atheletes do cold baths so it seems to me like it goes with that. I know the wingsuiter Jeb Corliss does cold baths from his videos on youtube. The cold in Finland would definitely be something Id have to get used to.
