Both Finland and Japan seem like magical places.
Except being in an apartment designed to retain heat facing the sun that's up nearly all day with no A/C.
But yeah, other than that.
You gotta go outside and inhale the wild amounts of pollen
I do, as I have no allergies ✨
Maybe the mosquitoes.
Is this the Finnish equivalent to a cockerel crowing in the morning?
braaaaaa-da-da-da-da-da
Don't all countries with a similar climate have countryside like this? I know this could just as easily be the UK, kinda assumed its normal countryside.
The trick is that this picture is taken at 1am or something, I think.
Ah, Northern Finland then.
Bring it on mother fu.. 🔪 Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴
Nordic summers rule tho'
Brb moving to Finland
Free college education if you can speak the language. As I understand it, no citizenship required.
What about the start of midsummer?
I can't argue with that.
I dunno, I feel like I'm boiling alive here

That photo doesn't have a lake in it though!
It was taken FROM a lake.
If you want a 1st hand view of what Finland is like there is a guy who full time rides his bike through different countries (for 7-8 years now) and streams live. He is riding through Finland right now. He is on Kick, Twitch and YouTube. His name is Hitch on the platforms. Been watching the whole trip, it has been wild.
