    I have a friend who lived here for years and was from Australia. The one thing I learned from her was that as Australian you are accommodated to have a lot more sun than we are and even us have problems to get our vitamin D. The big difference is that your body is use to have a lot of it. So you are going to need to supplement it in bigger dose than what the locals do. And you probably should do that no matter if it winter or summer. They don't talk about that in here because most don't understand the difference. That was one of the thing she was taught by the company she worked so I would trust to that information. And that will be super important for your health in so many ways especially now when we are heading towards the dark months. Please take care of that aspect.

    Hello William, first of all, very well edited video! Second, you dug into the main part of Finland right from the start, which is nature. Nature is the CORE of every Finnish person, we are connected to it in a way that few can understand it. The Peace it can give to you. Even the natives in the America embraced us because of our connection to the nature. There is literally people called Finndians in the America LOL (look it up). Anyways, great video and I hope you'll find your place among us. I will certainly welcome you here with such a great and broad perspective of it all!

    I love this video! I am a 19 year old from Norway, and have stayed in Finland for 1 month now. I will stay for about another month in Mikkeli. Where i am staying there are multiple Australian people who have moved here permanently. You are more than welcome to come visit us, and even stay here for a while!

    11:00 this is very important, I feel most people don't see this about their own country. Sometimes you need to leave it or get another prospective from another person to see it.

      I couldn't agree more, even moving to Finland helped me see my home country in a new way and appreciate it so much more for what it does.

    The editing, music, and vibe of this video went absolutely crazy tbh.
    I'm an american from the east coast who also plans to move to a nordic country soon, but in my case it'll be Sweden! I'd love to experience the cold and more free lifestyle that the nordics offer.
