I am 70 years old and I find this video heartwarming to find such wisdom in this young couple.
I’m 68 and agree 100%. Most of the YT channels I follow are young people leading similar lifestyles - they give me hope for the future of our world. ❤
Ich schaue auch gerne die Videos von jungen Menschen.
Vanlifer entdecken die Welt, was ich, als Rollifahrerin, schlecht selbst kann.
Bin 69 Jahre alt, somit sind wir ja fast gleich alt.
Viele junge Deutsche wandern im Moment in die nordischen Länder aus, was bestimmt Gründe dafür gibt.
Ditto. 70 here, also! 🥰 It's good to see young people carrying on the traditions that define a culture and a society.
I agree I'm in my 60s and tv is terrible, UA-cam and videos like this also give me joy!
Suomi ... Suomi...Suomi ...
Beautiful (sound) to the loving Finnish name of Finland.

Quite possibly the most natural and authentic Christmas vlog I've watched this season - I absolutely love how close to nature you both are, and how much you enjoy the warmth you find in your community too. So easy to forget that Christmas is really about our fellow men as much as anything else. Wishing you every good thing for the coming New Year!
I love these any ppl doing it in the rough winters. My family are in Norway
Many forces, especially marketing forces, in America try to define the Christmas season from Thanksgiving to the 25th. I try hard to enjoy the Advent season (the 4 weeks prior) and the old season of Christmastide (the 40 days after). Simpler, slower but the meaning, lights, and beauty of Christmas are a balm to the soul in the dark of winter. There is wisdom in many of the old ways. Personally, I adjust my decorations after the 25th. There is a family fun in the excess of decorations but for Christmastide, my wife and I distill it to a peaceful essence. The greenery, some lights, the Nativity, special family remembrances that bring joy and peace during many days when the weather restricts travel. Peace on earth and goodwill to all is still God's desire for us all.
What a simple but awesomely rich life. We love this peace and true life
Merry Christmas and Happy New year Sanna! I love Finland and north of Finland in particular. My family, friends and I spent many wonderful adventures there. I am originally from Russia, but I lived in Michigan USA for 25 years now. Interestingly Michigan is the place in the USA with a large Finnish community and the land itself is reminding me of Finland - many lakes, nature , snow, and the northern lights.
Peace and prosperity to all people. We live in terrible time of wars and people suffering. My sincere wish for this to end and everybody stay warm and safe , surrounded by loved ones.
Can we name a time without wars or rumors of wars? Constant vigilance is the price of peace and sometimes war is the price of continued existence.
It is refreshing to see how you work together. Families get so busy and so many times it mostly falls on one person.
Greetings from Brazil. Everything in your videos is amazing: the landscapes, the soundtracks, your comments on your daily life, your comfy farmhouse... Congratulations for the great work you're doing there. Looking forward for more and more videos. :)
Das ist doch Winter 👍schon 30 j her wo wir so etwas hatten
Leider kann ich kein English
Bin 76 j alt und in der DDR aufgewachsen und hatte nur Russisch in der Schule ! Habe 45 j als Dachdecker gearbeitet
Ich habe Ihnen mal ein Abo gegeben ❤
Ein guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr 2024 und bleiben Sie gesund
Greetings from Brandenburg 🇩🇪 Pozdrawiam Brandenburgii
Gruß aus Brandenburg Amities Brandenbourg Udo
Ein gutes neues Jahr nach Brandenburg. Nur wenige Menschen aus Deutschland schauen Sanaa zu. Hier ist einer, das freut mich!
Lovely video and I agree with you, we need to keep our traditions alive!!! Merry Christmas to you and yours and we wish you a peaceful, gentle New Year!!
My apologies for bringing this up again, but the font is too small to read... Merry Christmas🎄
I am new to your channel and I am loving your videos, your home, and life and your wonderful heart! I am 62, and I was telling my family how the old traditions are going to die if we do not teach them to the younger generations. We have Norwegian ancestry and remember the beautiful traditional foods that were lovingly prepared. Lefse, rosettes, krumkage, Norwegian rice, and others were such a part of holiday tables. I'm so thankful for you just speaking this and living and sharing in your community. I am blessed by you. I pray that the true joy of Christ's birth will fill your heart and even though Christmas is over, we will savor that joy and bring it wherever we go. Sending you love and light.
I believe respecting the Natural world is of the utmost importance…we take so much for granted…. Wishing you a Healthy, Peaceful and Prosperous 2024……Many Blessings ❤
Thank you ☺❤ All the best to you, too 💛✨
Thank you Sanna for your love ❤
Wonderful video Sanna! I agree by keeping our old traditions, once we lose them, they are gone. I have always been attracted to as they say, "the olden days", 1800's-1930's. I joke I was born too late (1961) in this world, but I keep my "inside world" as "olden" as I can. Thank you for such a wonderful video, stay healthy, enjoy a very peace filled New Year!
Greetings, Terveiset! I am Finnish Canadian, both parents are Finnish and my father's family came from Finland. I have grown up with many of these traditions and it's wonderful to see it's alive and well! I have the traditional Christmas Eve sauna too :) My mother makes the ginger cookies and various delicious baking every year. All the best to you both for a great new year 2024 and beyond! You have a new follower here :)
Wow, hello there, far-away relative ☺ Welcome to join my Finnish life, I'm glad you are enjoying your Finnish roots and traditions ☺

Kyllä, traditiot täytyy pitää elävinä ja hienoa, jos nuoret ihmiset ymmärtävät tehdä niin. Pohjoisessa elävillä ihmisillä on omat tapansa elää ja olla talvikuukausina. On outoa, että kaikkea on kaupan ympäri vuoden! Siinä olen samaa mieltä kanssasi. Itse voi elää toisin. Hyvää uutta vuotta!
Hyvää joulua ja onnellista uuttavuotta! so beautiful video...
Hyvää joulua ja Onnellista Uutta Vuotta. From Pacific Northwest, USA.
Beautiful tree and lovely food for the gathering! Thank you for the reminder that we all have such abundance, yet we may forget to recognize that. It's an important practice to offer gratitude and honor Mother Earth for what she provides.
Happy New Year from New Mexico, USA. You videos are so beautiful. Be well.
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦,
Just found your channel recently and I absolutely love your videos. I love the scenery and the music and they are so peaceful to watch. You are such a ray of sunshine and Bapu is the cutest. Thank you for being you. Have a wonderful rest of your week. 🙂💕
I am so glad I came across your channel. It is so nice to see a smaller channel grow so much. And you seem like such a sweet person. ❤️❤️❤️
The positive size of UA-cam, is exactly this type of videos. From all over the world we are able to see how other people lives. That is nothing but a HUGE MIRACLE!!❤. Thank you. Keep doing a great job.👍🏻👍🏻🫶🏻🥰
Kaunis! I love your videos and your words. I lived in Finland for two years, when I was 19, and I miss it so much. Coming from the west coast of Canada to northern Finland was incredible, and I miss the landscapes, nature, and people daily. I hope to return there one day and spend more time in saunas and nature there. Suomi (Finland) is such a special place, and I think your mindset towards nature and how we should honour it is beautiful. I noticed that a lot with other Finns when I lived there, and it's incredibly refreshing to hear. I was told that Finns are the indigenous peoples of Europe, and your mindset towards nature reminds me of the mindset of Native Americans here, which is so much about being part of nature and not taking more than you need. It's so nice to see snippets of Finland again through your beautiful videos, and your knitting is just gorgeous! Thank you for sharing with us, and I hope you had a lovely Christmas. Kiitos paljon! Hali hali!
Finnish men are so lucky...it's no wonder why Finland is rated happiest country in the world...I miss and think about it everyday...🤍
Sanna Sanna ! ... thanks for ALL videos , love ! ... HAPPY 2024 to yours from Uruguay !!!.
It must smell so wonderful in there while the tree thaws.
Thank you, nice reflections on the traditions of Christmas and the importance of appreciating the blessings we have. It's interesting how Nordic traditions surrounding Christmas are practiced around the world. Peace, light, warmth and all things good to you and yours! Happy New Year.
Viele Grüße aus Bayern Deutschland. Ich wünsche dir einen schönen Winter.
Lovely video as usual in severe conditions. Thanks Sanna for sharing and Happy New Year to you and yours including Bobo.
С Рождеством из России!
Дякую !! : ))
Як гарно і кухня біла мені нравиться
I'm from Brazil, I really like Finland.
I always wondered if I would find a UA-cam channel from someone from Finland, where he shows life in Finland in winter.
But it happened because I managed to find your UA-cam channel.
Sanna Vaara, I really like watching this type of film, because that way I can learn more and more about Finnish culture and that's fantastic for me.
I wish you and everyone who reads this comment all the best in this new year.
Thank you 💛✨
It is a big pleasure for me watching your videos. Thank you so much for showing us how you live and being so kind to us all. Merry christmas and a happy new year for you and your family! Lots of love ❤❤❤
Thank you for the Christmas wishes. While watching this I wondered what it would be like to live in such a cold environment with so much snow. Today we celebrated our son’s 49th birthday eating gumbo, hot rolls, rice and cake. We played corn hole outside and watched the grandchildren play football. The weather was beautiful as we enjoyed the outdoors. Our grandchildren dream of having snow at least once this winter. As a family we pray together and thank our Lord for all His many blessings. Our main Christmas tradition is going to church on Christmas eve, singing and worshipping our Lord Jesus as we celebrate His birth. Blessings to you and your family.
Fav channel for Nordic view .
Merci pour ces merveilleux paysages enneigés bonne fête de france
Dear Sanna, Thank you very much for this beautiful and lovely video. Very nice. And also thank you for your good wishes. It touches my heart a lot. ❤️🙏🏻 Best wishes from Germany 💫✨
I cooked Finnish casseroles one year, so yum for Christmas. Your house looked great for the party. Enjoy the peace at winter, different world ❄
Happy Christmas-season, Sanna! Thank you for showing us some of your traditions, and for your very wise words. I am loving watching your videos. Happy 2024 to you both, from me in the UK!
I love this and the peacefulness of simplicity you show . Here in Australia we have what is a strange time because we are surrounded by Christmas paraphenalia as well as the idea that in 30 or 40 degreesC of heat we eat turkey, and roast vegetables while the ice cream melts and what is left has to be thrown out the next day? Crazy! My season will be of simple food and honoring being in a beautiful country while ignoring all the imported ideas that just don't work here.
Greetings from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Here in the Kuperisaari we have many Finns and Saami. I went to school with people who had Finnish as their first language at home. We can easily relate to your videos.
I'm actually glad how many Finns and people from Nordic countries comes back to their roots. Even if pagan religions are not your thing, coming close to nature and peace is something I find natural and beautiful. Our ancestors were in harmony with forests and lakes, that is something we should cherish and keep at our hearts.
What a lovely video. Thank you so much for sharing some of your Nordic traditions. I hope that you had a very wonderful and warm Christmas time.
I think it is your beautiful soul that warmed the sauna as much as the fire. Thank you for this wonderful piece. Wishing you the joy, peace and ease of the season.🙏🏻❄️🎄⛄️
Thank you so much for this video. I grew up with a more Nordic flavored Christmas. Unfortunately so much of that has been lost to life. A an incredible New Year.
Amazing video. I felt so good watching this preparation and a fire 🔥 in sauna was so peaceful. Greetings and all the best for you 😊🌲 your videos are so good and I am happy that you share your Nordic life more often ❤️
Thank you ☺❤
Merry Christmas , it’s very lovely video i hope to come and visit finland in the future ❤😊
Season greetings for you and your family. Here in Chile we're in summer. So our Christmas is warm and in some places hot as Chile is a very long country with desert up in the north and cold regions in the South near Antartica. Thank you for sharing your traditions. Happy New Year.🌻
Hoping you are warm and cozy in your farmhouse during this recent northern Scandinavian cold wave. Please stay safe as minus 40 is Cold!
people took the time to write comments. That is a reflection of a good video. I gave an upvote. Remember to remind people to do that, to help the channel grow.
Thank you for such a beautifully put together video. I love the peace and tranquility your videos instil. Blessings for both of you at this time.
Sanna,
I have only very recently found your videos. Thank you for sharing these very peaceful pieces of your life. I am enjoying the videos so much!
Hyvää uuta vuotta!
Thank you for sharing your traditions. I agree with you we have so much it's time to be more grateful and appreciate everything in life. Have a wonderful winter ❤😊

Your home and community are beautiful. The slow life is so much better.
Thank you forthe video once again made so calm and beautiful.
About Finnish traditions I use to follow Taivaannaula, which explains all about traditions for specail days like Christmas eve, Boxing Day
Merry Christmas to you too Sanna!
Fantastic winter so far this year here in Oulu, and I can see it's even better up there where you live. Hyvää joulua ja onnellista uuttavuotta!
Thank you for your beautiful reflections on the world Sanna. Hyvää uutta vuotta!
In this place life is like an adventure....But really i would like to live this place....From India..
This is so beautiful. I am from the USA and I have had such a better experience with winter since I started using more Nordic winter traditions during winter.
I resonate with you so incredibly much🤍 I live in estonia, I just came back from my travels in Australia and Thailand and I’ve really grown to appreciate the local rhythm of nature, wherever you are. And sometimes I find it so hard to live the natural lifestyle because the world that’s been built is so far from it and I don’t always know how to survive in it 🥲
I love seeing your life and hope to see and hear more of it. You are creating something beautiful💚
Merry Christmas Sanna, what a beautiful video, your videos are always very pleasant to watch.
I'm also a sourdough home baker and love to see your bakes and traditions. love from UK
Happy New Year from Atlanta Georgia ❤

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2024 for you and your family❤ from Greece
Wonderfully made video! Thank you for sharing! You got soooo much snow, I'm a bit envious! I wish you merry Christmas and a happy new year as well!
God Jul to you Sanna Vaara!!! Though this is late in coming. I have always loved and been fascinated with Scandinavian culture since I was a little girl, love the simplicity & traditions. Your sweet winters night gathering in hosting those in your village, how lovely and cozy ❤. I have always involved a sauna during winter months as well, a good cleanse, a treat for my soul & body. Another beautiful video, I look forward to another soon enough, keep making your sourdough, it is beautiful bread ❤. It's a couple days away from the New Year, wishing you a new and wonderful peaceful year 🕯️🌲🕊️🍲❄️
So nice video, as always...! Watching you from Spain. Wishing you a healthy and happy new year! Hugs!!
Hallo Sanna
Ich wünsche einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr 2024 sowie Gesundheit, Glück 🍀 und Wohlergehen dir und deinen Lieben! Mach bitte auch im neuen Jahr weiter mit deinen schönen Videos ❤Grüße aus Wien 🤗🐞🐖🎩🎉🥂
A beautiful video with a beautiful and important message! ❤
Hello Sanna & thank you for putting me in such a calm, warm place sharing your nordic Christmas traditions. I played your vlog on a dark winter evening. It is beautiful to see how you & your husband embrace this time of year. Also appreciating your comment on how blessed we are to have the basics in life. There are so many people in need. Praying for a peaceful 2024. Thank you. I'm a new subscriber & look forward to more of your beautiful content.
I appreciate your videos so much Sanna 💛 Happy New Year to both you and your partner and of course to Robert and Papu.
I remember watching a movie when I was younger called “The Cuckoo” about the World War II, where a Russian and a Finish soldiers being both wounded by the enemy on the Finnish territory and a local Sami woman comes to their rescue by taking them to her house in the bush and taking care of them the whole winter with her knowledge and the resources she had available to her locally. That movie shows some of old traditions, food and wisdom of the Sami peoples in Lapland and their respect for Mother Nature.
Love this video! Greetings from Munich ❤
Merry Christmass and best wishes for a New Year.
Sending love back to you and yours Sanna. I really agree with your words. Connecting with the land, the nature spirits and our ancestors is something we should all value much more in our lives than we do. I’ve come to appreciate it all so much more these last few years. Wishing you a blessed Yuletide xx
Merry Christmas and happy New Year from South Africa
As a person who loves Christmas, this really created great, warm feeling after Christmas on January. Thank you for that🙏 have a happy new year and looking forward to see more of these beautiful and even meditative videos with peacuful rhytm😊
I like seeing a realistic used kitchen full of past and future meals being made
Love and light ireland ❤
Light in a dark night is like fire on a cold day.Thanks,enjoyed.
Inderdaad, hartverwarmend dat jonge mensen ook nadruk leggen op de belangrijke dingen in het leven.
Hei Sanna ! Aivan ihana kuvaus. Tällainen vanha mörkökin herkistyi sinun sauna jutuistasi. Myös pirtin kuvista ja kuviesi tunnelmasta.
Meidän perheellemme kuvat ovat tuttuja yli kolmenkymmenen talven ajalta Rukalla. Lapsemme saivat ulkoilu kipinänsä sieltä
Kuusamon kairoilta ja nyt voimme vaimoni kanssa onnellisina iloita lastemme luonnon tajusta ja sen arvostuksesta. Vielä on toivoa
kun huomaa, että teitä nuoria kiinnostaa jokin muukin kuin mammonan perässä juoksu. Kaikkea Hyvää Sinulle ja Läheisillesi.
Toivoo pappa joka nyt seuraa Sannan töitä täällä netissä.
Voi, kiitos kauniista sanoistasi ❤ Oikein ihanaa alkanutta vuotta mörkölle ☺
Sanna your videos are so beautiful ❤ Over the Christmas period we found you and we've watched every single one 🥰 We were waiting for your new one and this one was so lovely too. Thank you for sharing your Nordic life. We love your gorgeous pups too 🐶🐕 Papu makes us smile in the deep snow ☃
Happy New Year to you all from us here in the south of England 🤗
True! so much ancient wisdom we need to remember in this modern world... beautiful video
sanna seni dünyanin uc noktası yani turkiyeden izliyorum yasam tarziniza hayran kaldım size noel gununuzde huzur ve mutluluk dleklerimi sunarım
Merry Christmas to you and your husband from India.
May all your wishes be fulfilled in the coming year; wishes of having your own home and living close to nature.
Love how Christmas is not all commercialized here, it is for real.
Your Christmas message of enjoying peace and togetherness and , above all , gratitude for the things we already have has brought me to tears because of its simple humanity at this special time. Thank you.
Thank you 💛✨
Lovely video, it is always interesting to see different traditions❤
Your vlogs are so full of friendship and warmth. Thank you for sharing.
Good morning Mrs Sanna, it's interesting to learn more about your traditions in this part of your country. Do you have more interesting traditional stories please 🙏 Thanks Greetings from Luxemburg 🇱🇺
Merry Christmas, I have a Finnish friend and remember her making those same sweets.🎄
Kiitos paljon ihanasta Videosta,tuli ikävä 😂Suomeen,olen Kajaanista mutta asun ja olen naimisissa Saksalaisen Kanssa . Paljon terveisiä Kirsti ❤💕👍🤗
You are so wise, and your voice is so soothing. Thank you for your holiday message. Even though it came to us later, it is good to have it throughout the year.
