Exploring SANTA CLAUSE VILLAGE in the ARCTIC CIRCLE 🇫🇮 (Finnish Lapland)
got goosebumps just because i felt so happy for you and seeing you having so much passion towards my country
You are so sweet!! Thank you. We loved exploring Finland. Such a beautiful country and such kind people. OF COURSE we appreciate what you guys have. Who wouldn’t?? 😂🥰
Where in Finland are you from??
Okay that is the coolest place to send postcards from. Also your reaction to the northern lights is incredible! One day we will see them!
We definitely recommend going north during the season and trying to see them! It is so beautiful and seems like a dream🤗 also Santa Clause village was a fun magical place as well! Thanks for all your support friends🥰
Thanks for your video. You are genuinely positive. I wish you and everyone from Finland a Merry Christmas.
Daw thank you so much! We're so glad you enjoyed. Where are you from? 🤗
Finland😀@@WyattandReyka
The videos rarely do justice to the northern lights. But we know how they look. It was special to see your reaction to them. 😊
And santa gave Reyka a gift early. I suppose the hubby needs to comply to Santa's mandates and give her a weekly massage. ;)
Totally agree that videos can have a hard time capturing the lights especially iPhones but I am so happy you enjoy our reactions🤗🤗 we love your comments and support and really appreciate it❤️ Also I have been telling Wyatt the same thing! He definitely has to give me massages everyday hahaha 😂
@@WyattandReyka glad to hear it. :) Merry Christmas.
Reyka is the most joyful American I have seen.
That is one of the nicest comments I (Reyka) have gotten personally! Thank you so much for your support and the watch, it means a lot🥰❤️ Take care!
Happy Christmas to You🎄🎄🎄
Merry Christmas!! All your sweet comments and views are quite the Christmas present to us!🥰🎄❤️
what a beautiful place
It truly was magical! Thanks so much watching 🤗🥰
1 shared duvet? Madness, madness I tell you!
You are honestly so right! Ever since we were in Scandinavia we were like “how did we go this long without doing this?!” 😂
Oh it's a lot nicer than two separate ones ;)
Nice video 👍
Thank you!!
I too ❣️christmas and santa
How can you not?! 🤗 Have you been to Santa clause Village?
@@WyattandReyka 🤗❣️i arrived in tampere 2mons ago im planning on visiting rovaniemi and lapland this years fall holiday winter holiday basically
Amazing!! Yes you totally should it is magical 🥰🤗
@@WyattandReyka yea soon🤗❣️
Let us know how it goes 🥰🤗
Nice video 👍 🇫🇮
Thank you so much! We really appreciate the support and the watch! Take care🥰❤️❤️
Fun video 😊 Its good for visitors to know that in winter there is only about 5 hours of daylight 😮
That was so crazy for us to get used to! But then those northern Lights were so beautiful so it was worth it! Thanks for watching!! 🥰❤️
Not really, they were in Rovaniemi obviously in the autumn, you can see the snow melting off the road. In the middle of the winter, in the high season of turists, in the Christmas time there is only 2 and a half an hour daylight and waaaayyyy more snow. Also it is much more cold in the middle of the winter, like -10 to -25 Celsius.
Hahahaha for sure. Yeah. We were there in mid October! Are you from Rovaniemi? 🤔
@@WyattandReyka No but close about 110 kilometers south from it. Lived closer as a child though. You should come back in mid winter next time.
Hahaha sounds cold and dark but we loved the northern lights so maybe we will just do a work-cation somewhere north and edit during the day, and photograph/video the lights at night@@mantailuaa
Happy Xmas and happy new year, I wish all your wish come true🥹♥️
Thank you so much and a happy holidays to you too!🥰🥰🎄
Lindos
Wow tempatnya sangat bagus sekali
It really is 🤗🥰 highly recommend
Nice video! Pssst let's not tell anyone, but I can tell you a secret. That polar circle line in Santa Claus village is fake. The actual polar circle is about 2 kilometers north from there but it's swamp, so the village was built there on the stable ground where it is. The polar circle also moves about 15 meters per year because the axle of the Earth is wobbling. The cycle is about 41000 years and in that time the polar circle moves within 250 kilometers!
Oh really?! That's wild! If we didn't post this video, we wouldn't have learned that so I'm thankful we did. How do you know so much about finland? And thank you very much for watching we're so glad you enjoyed 🥰
@@WyattandReyka I have lived in Finland my whole life :)
We love Finland so much! It’s such a beautiful country🥰
@SirWavy-vq8rh Rovaniemi is 850 kilometers north from where I live and because my kids are adults already, I haven't seen that old white-bearded guy for years 😃
Very magical place, excellent video, Thank you for sharing, with what camera were you able to record the Northern Lights 🤩?
Right?! It was sooo beautiful. And thank you! For recording the lights we just used our iPhone 14 Pro! Worked well although we’d love to go again and find some better lights
As well as use a better camera
Hi, guys, thank you for this video. Can I ask you about shoes . Was it cold in your baskets or you had other kind of shoes for longer walk in snow?
We didn’t have any snow boots and were actually ok. However the snow was not super high yet by that point. If you are worried about getting your feet wet, bringing boots might be a good idea.
Nice video! Blanket had moose on it not raindeer : )
You are right! Lol. Cheers and take care 🤗🥰
Thank you for this video! Can you share the name of this hotel. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed the video! It is called the Santa Clause Village and it’s in Rovaniemi Finland! We loved our time there and definitely recommend take care🤗🤗
Wow, what month is this? I’m going there nov 4th this year 😊
It was in October! November should definitely have snow and Christmas vibes! We loved our stay there and hope you enjoy yours 🥰 let us know if you have any questions🤗
Thank you 🙂
You’re going to have a blast!!
Mbappe is there now
Mbappe the football player?? 🤯
Sadly that is not the real location of the arctic circle. But who cares :)
Hahaha yeah that's what we've read since posting this vlog. Unfortunate but still fun to see in the village 🤗
