  • Hello, you all beautiful people 💙
    Winter is full on. We've had cold and snowy days for this month, and the nights, oh, they are long and dark.
    In this video I share our typical days of cold winter here in the North.
    Welcome to my world 💛

    Sanna, I just came across your beautiful channel this evening. Three sets of my grandparents emigrated from Finland to the United States in the late 1890s and my grandfather left Finland at 5 years old, in 1914. He was born in Virrat and still has family in Finland. My mother's side of the family came from up near the Arctic Circle, a town called Pudasjarvi. They settled in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where the climate, terrain, and vegetation is very similar to Finland. We usually get winter in the middle of November and it lasts until the end of April or beginning of May. The hours of light are short in November, December, and January. It is a time to settle in and do handiwork and work on hobbies. I was close to my grandparents and they lived long lives, so I learned a lot about Finnish customs, foods, and rag rug weaving...I have an old loom. I enjoyed seeing the old tools displayed on your wall...recognized an old kantele as well. I am interested in my Finnish heritage and would like to visit one day. For now, I will have to live vicariously through you and your videos. I love your dogs. Pupa, the old girl, is just like a Sheltie I had years ago. Thank you for sharing your life. I'll be waiting for more of your videos.

      My mother’s parents came from Pudasjarvi and Taivalkoski Finland and also settled in the UP of Michigan. Her parents never really spoke much English because there were so many other Finn’s in their community. I was fortunate to travel to Finland with my mother. So wild and free, really felt as if one could touch the hand of God there. Their last nam was Waara which was the name given when they can to USA. It was originally Vaara.

    I love this mindset of accepting the darkness of winter and letting yourself live differently than you would during the summer. I work at a horse ranch and sometimes I feel like I have to be just as productive and busy outdoors as during the warmer seasons. Of course, some work has to continue but I like this idea of accepting the change and being productive in different ways.

    What an exquisite scene- as you walked along- your blue eyes, your blue parka and the blues in the shadows of the snow all around you, playing off each other, all in harmony; monochromatic without being monotonous. These momentary glimpses bring me joy and inspiration. As a (sometimes) painter/artist I am very sensitive to colors in this way.

    I started to get to know the north of Europe thanks to Jonna Jinton a long time ago, but this place on earth has begun to fascinate me once again. Everything seems to be on the borderline between the real world and fairy tales. Wading in the snow on a cold winter's day, a small cottage with a smouldering fire, forests that grow green every summer. Surrounding oneself with simplicity and delighting in nature. I feel like dropping everything, packing up and setting off on a journey, even though I know it's no fairytale ;) But I do miss the snow in winter. I don't live in the country where I was born, the winters are mild, gloomy and rainy (which also has it's charm, but you have to look for it well sometimes:)), but I would love to lie down on the snow and listen to the silence. And wear warm socks even all year round :)

    My bucket list includes a trip to Finland to the towns where my grandparents were from.
    My Dad (RIP) was born and raised in a Finnish community on the north shore of Lake Superior. He only spoke Finnish until he went to school, they lived in a way very similar to yours.
    While they weren't as far north as you, they embraced the winter months. They would have night ski trips, someone would have a tarp, fire, coffee and food set up halfway on the trail then they would ski back home under the aurora.

    Hi I live in Canada, and now am 55. It gives me joy to see that there are still people in Western countries who understand that even though it takes hard work, effort and sacrifice, that there is some younger generations that truly are not held to what is expected as the norm in today's life and how to live.
    Today's world is getting faster and faster and we are programed in Western society to be lifetime consumers and to be controlled by material things.
    I have traveled the world, I have seen things I wish I could forget. But I was the happiest in all my life when I realized to take the time and see the beauty in God's creativity and all his creations. To be so lucky to be given the chance and realize and blessed to witness my grandson at the age of 3 see a butterfly for the first time and watch his face and see his reaction, even though I when as a young father was too busy and missed so many first-time things like that, what I see when I watched this video not only reminded me that life is beautiful and better when we take the time to really see the beauty when you can turn off all the world's noise and not only see or feel life but takenthe time to understand and really feel and be connected to life.
    Thank you for sharing, keep being yourself and do not anything or anyone take or break your spirit of life.
    Even though I am 55 and my body is weak and my strength is leaving me, I do not need much other than blue skies, the sun, a smile from my wife and a hug from my children and grandchildren, I am happy.

  • @Julia_USMidwest

    I used to dislike and put off weaving the ends, but now here is how I handle it: (1) I make the end-weaving a celebration of completing of the item. (2) I've learned that it takes less than 2 minutes and I feel good to have it done, not havging over my head. (3) try not to start a new item until the previous one is completed. (4) I keep yarn needle or crochet hook with my knitting so that equipment is immediately at hand. (5) I have learned to weave ends with a crochet hook, which I enjoy working more than the needle.
    I appreciate seeing how you made your pile of end-waving a celebration of sorts. That would have been daunting to me, but you are challenging me to rethink my outlook. 😊

Now that it's January, even though its cold, the days are getting longer. Soon it will be spring and life will return to your land. Best wishes and a Happy New Year to you.

    Beautiful cinematography, Sanna! And a beautiful way to begin my day in South Central Pennsylvania. It’s Sunday Dec. 10th, 2023, 8am. It’s drizzling, gray, and 40 degrees f. No snow, of course. I’m tapping out this message to you on my iPad while sitting by a fire in my fireplace fueled by propane and made to look “realistic” with low flames curling around ceramic logs. A different (and totally lazy) technology, but similar in feeling and atmosphere and very much enhanced by your lovely video.

I love this kind of content and for the first time I actually find someone in Finland, that is amazing

    Hello. I just found your channel, it's my first time watching. It was so relaxing to watch, I loved your 200 yr old fireplace. I can understand how much work it is to keep your home warm, I live in a forest in northern Italy, it's full of snow here and long dark nights, but beautiful. Thanks for the video, enjoyed the music too.😊

    I am new to your channel and like it so much. Your northern land is so beautiful and refreshing. You are so blessed to live there and totally enjoy and embrace the winter.
    I would like to see you cook and bake and share Nordic recipes with us. I love to bake and I make bread here in Arizona, United States. Please consider it.
    I knit too, but not the complicated Nordic patterns. I enjoy seeing your work. I too do not enjoy sewing in the ends after a knitting project. 😊
    Do you have to drive far to buy your household food and supplies?
    I viewed the video when you had a sore throat and was drinking hot black currant juice. I make a tea from Elderberries that is very medicinal too. Many of us are trying to get back to nature in our foods and such using natural means.
    Thank you for your beautiful uplifting channel. Bless you and Esa/Isa, and the pups.

    Dear Sanna, I‘ve just recently found your channel - and I‘ve been binge watching aaall your video since 😊 I love Scandinavia, I love being in nature, I love the winter and I am a passionate knitter, so I guess it was only a matter of time until I was supposed to find your channel 🥰 I love the polar nights, the coziness, having time for knitting. I would have very much enjoyed to see you weaving in all the ends of your gorgeous mittens and socks (that‘s what I have been doing throughout the whole video (and many videos before) on my allover colourwork sweater). I think it‘s a very meditative thing to do and I enjoy after having finished a piece to properly finish it off with weaving in the ends. It‘s like a step I need before I can let a beloved knit go and start a new one - if that makes sense. Your knitted sweaters and garments are wonderful. Have you knitted them after patterns or do you also design them yourself?
    I love your videos and the beautiful nature you are showing us 🧡 looking forward to see more of you! Kiitos🧡

    What beautiful scenery! I am watching this from Australia in 34 deg C heat! Finland is so beautiful, lots of lakes and forests. I was lucky enough to travel there in the summer of 2019 and enjoyed it so much, travelling from Helsinki all the way north and across the Arctic Circle then into Norway. It was trip of a life time. I love that your life in the winter time seems so relaxing and calm. Also live your knitting! Thank you for sharing! ❤
