  • Hello, you ❤️
    In this video I take you into the wilderness of northern Finland. Welcome along ❤️
    *
    I'm a nature lover and creative soul living far North of Finland. I live in a remote village, in an old farmhouse, travel in the North, and seek inspiration in the wild nature around me.
    I create photographs, videos, and music, inspired by this Nordic nature and its magic.
    Welcome to my world 💛

    Your part of Finland is soooo beautiful. Your videos have this calming effect on me as it is speaks solitude with nature which I long to have in life. I am a grandmom of three active kids to a son who all live in our compound. I would have wanted peace and quiet in my home but I also love to listen to the boisterous giggles and laughter of the three. Guess I just can't have both worlds in reality but I can see your vids and tag along with your solitude. Thank you so much.

    This was so peaceful and relaxing 😌🤍. I’m a huge introvert, and I 💯 get why you need alone time. What a beautiful place to take that time.. Finland is amazing 🤩 (even in the rain 🙂).
    Two things always worry me when hiking in my little corner of Canada: Bears (and other predators) and ticks (yuck 😫). Do you ever pack things like bear spray? And do you have to protect yourself from parasites? Maybe these are more problematic in Canada 🤷‍♀️. If so, I’m moving to Finland 🤣.
    Thanks for sharing, Sanna 🤍

    • @sannavaara
      @sannavaara  Рік тому +5

      Another introvert and a highly sensitive person here, too, so this is absolutely necessary for me to do every once in a while. I've about Canadian bears, but for some reason ours are more timid and always walk away from humans. You are lucky if you ever get a glance at them so no worries for them at all. And for ticks or other parasites, we don't have any of them this far north 😘

    Beautiful, Sanna, thank you so much for taking us with you into the beautiful Finish wilderness. Sometimes we need to feel the elements all by ourselves to feel alive and to feel ourselves again. I can really relate to that and I've been longing to camp out somewhere all by myself for a long time, but my disabled husband needs me, so I can only stay away for half a day at a time. But a small hike up the moorlands can also help. Lots of love from England xx
