There are some 200k inhabitants in the county of Finnish Lapland. The amount of Sami people has proven to be very disputable. Obviously, there're only some thousands of them. And they live mostly far up in the north. I see more relevant to mention, that there live puople and they have the homes of their own in Lapland. Tourists should respect the locals. They shouldn't e.g. enter into home yards and look in to homes through the windows. Air B&B is a problem in Rovaniemi, too.
They are the native people of the land however (maybe not Rovaniemi, but I was talking about the whole region in this video) so I do feel it's important to mention 🙂 I agree with your second point though and should have mentioned that as well. Airbnb causes so many problems all over the world, has it raised house prices a lot in Rovaniemi? Is it an issue in other parts of Finnish Lapland?
@@ClairesFootsteps AirB&B brings to some extent the same issuss in Rovaniemi as anywhere else. Rovaniemi is seemingly in the focus in the Finnish context, but is still in the very early stages of mass tourism. However, it's not Barcelona, Venice, Kyoto... In the other parts of 🇫🇮 Lapland there are smaller or larger ski resorts (Levi, Ylläs, Pyhä etc.) when we don't typically speak about people's homes.
Thank you for sharing happy new year seasons greetings
2:12 Denmark?
Ah sorry, slip of the tongue that I didn't even catch when editing 😬 I meant Finland of course 🙂
Danish people speak like they were drunk. In Finland we are actually drunk. Know the difference 😂
Bearing in mind the slips you had I thought you were going to say boots with good soles.

Nice video, but the area is called Sápmi and not Sampi.
