  • We are still far away from spring. It seems like winter is tightening its grip while elsewhere in the world spring is already starting.

    Hello, you all 💙 I''ve been reading your comments all morning, and I'm dazzled of all of your kindness not only towards me but also towards of each others ❤ I'm thankful that you take the time to write here, and share your love out to the world. Let's continue that, it is what this world needs ❤
    And as a side note, there're many comments on why I use the word "Scandinavian" though Finland is not a part of Scandinavia. Finland is not geographically a part of Scandinavia but I have personally always thought that our culture here in the North is very similar to our neighbour countries. For many centuries people have moved across Finland, Sweden and Norway, especially here in the North, and shared similar culture. That is why I use this word but I do understand it is confusing.
    Thank you for all of you who share your corner of the world and your life stories here. I'm sending you all the warmth and love I can to your different situations in life ❤❤

    There is nothing better than an "uneventful" but meaningful life. Many people find every-day-life more interesting than busy vacations, talking a mile-a-minute videos and watching a "set stage". In your life, there is beauty like no other...who tires of a beautiful flower in their garden year after year? Last but not least, "snow washing", how INTERESTING! Thank you!

I often long for the days of less pain, the days filled with family and friends. My life is quiet now. I am grateful for people like Sanna who share the beauty of their lives through videos . That helps make my life more interesting and beautiful too. ❤

      Lucky you! I want to retire so bad but because of unfortunate happenings I can't. I've paid for my house for 30 yrs and still owe almost as much as I paid for it. After a split in 2001 with my x bf, I had to buy him out and start over. Then my mom got dementia 15 years into the 2nd time I had to modify the loan as I took care of her and she went under hospice in my house so I couldn't work and had to collect social security at 63. Well...didn't know they were going to knock a little over $200. Off the payment and add 30 more years to my loan
      Ugh. I'm 70. If it wasn't for my animals, which is my life( horses mainly) I guess I could live in a van

I have always loved winter. I’m from Chicago, Illinois in the US. I appreciate your beautiful video of winter, your home, your activities with awe and wonder. Seems very romantic to me, if you will allow me to use this word in this way. Winter where I’m from back home reminds me that although so many things die God brings them to life again in the spring bc He is the Resurrection and the Life.

When I was completing my teaching degree I was blessed to spend 6 months living in Vaxjo, Sweden, so I am drawn to the simplicity, the familiarity and the heart of your videos. They bring back wonderful memories, including a brief trip to Finland with such generous people. I admit that I am amazed at your knitting skills! Your sweaters which you snow wash are some of the most beautiful I've ever seen! I wish at your age I had been gifted with your wisdom. Your words have struck a chord within me. Thank you ❤

It was such a flawless, beautiful, and enchanting excursion in so many different ways, so unlike what we’re accustomed to, that in some ways the experience almost deserves to dissipate. I say almost, almost because parts of that experience have settled into our bones reminding us of the timelessness that brackets our lives.

Spring arrived a couple of weeks ago. My crocuses and dwarf irises are out. It’s bizarre. In the past we’ve had ice storms in mid-April and blizzards at the end of April. Also your northern lights! They fill me with awe. A couple of times I’ve sat on a dock in Northern Ontario until 2 a.m. waiting for them because the news predicted they would be out and … nothing.

    The snow is beautiful. But it really brings a lot of inconvenience. Here where I live we don't have snow. We are delighted to see these beautiful white landscapes. But we have no idea how much harder it is to spend long weeks with so much snow. It's good that spring is now near. Thank you for sharing.

    I love your knitting skills they are amazing! The sweaters are so beautiful and the socks are beautiful too! I love winter time it’s my favorite time of the year! Everything slows down and I find myself reading in the Bible and drawing closer to YHWH and Yeshua. It’s a time of reflection and a daily repentance. Thank you for sharing your story!

    Que hermoso tu vídeo! Me llama mucho la atención la vida en el norte con tanta nieve. En mi país, Uruguay, no nieva y no conozco la nieve, aunque sí tenemos las 4 estaciones bien marcadas. Pero en invierno no baja el termómetro por debajo de cero. Admiro mucho los paisajes hermosos invernales de tu país , y las bellísimas auroras boreales. Gracias por acercarnos esos paisajes y la cultura de tu gente a través de tus costumbres cotidianas!

    Dear Sanna, you are amazing! Thank you for such beautiful video. I live in the middle of Europe (the Czech Republic), during my childhood we also had a lot of snow - not as much as you have, but enought to ski and enjoy the winter time. In the last couple of years we hardly have a little snow in Dezember/January.
    I am really grateful that I could have seen the amazing nature aroung your place. Take care. 😘💖🧶

    Many thanks for your absolutely wholesome and very beautiful video. A simple, wholesome life is a real life worth living. I live in a medium size village in the deep South of Spain's Andalucia. I am not from this place. It is a bit of a Desert really... No issues. I make the best of it until I find where I really want to live. last Summer the heat index went up to 52 deg C. I visited Helsinki for a month. It was awesome, clean, cool, and very green. Folks were happy and nice. I did not have the opportunity to visit Lapland or head out North. Maybe some other time. Many folks from Finland visit Spain. Specially Malaga. I have met a number a wonderful folks from Finland in Malaga. They like to spend a portion of their heavy Winter there. Again, thank you for your beautiful video. I really enjoyed it. My life is also very simple, and serene. God blesses you very richly indeed.

I live on an island in the northeast of the US, though it is slower than most US cities, I wish for even more quiet at times, but at least the winter months there are less distractions from people. Your sweaters are gorgeous, that is my weakness, nothing else but sweaters matter in my wardrobe. Thank you for sharing what you do, I think for many it gives them a slice of peace and tranquility as it does me. Enjoy the rest of your gorgeous winter.

      ​@@SanctityofLife there's a difference between being similar to something and being a copycat or rip off.
