Ep13 my Indian family meets my extended Finnish family - Life in Finland

[@blairswanson44]

This episode is extra special Johanna. Brings back so many personal feelings for me. It's good that Vinod can experience more of your family's history & that Annika has now become part of your relative's own life experience. Love to you all. ❤️

[@joysonthomas4999]

I was noticing that your uncle was observing Annika quite closely and the resemblance is quite apparent. That's what blood relations are all about. Nice video. God bless all of you.

[@asit1]

Annika does look quite a bit like Jore and the way he loves her, is evident in the video. You are really blessed.

[@chaitrahunnur1022]

Those snowy trees and nature are amazing 😍 truly Finland is a winter wonderland !

Yes amazing to see for 1 hour , but not living forever . India has best weather.

Annika looks so happy in Finland

[@shahbazanwar3214]

I love this baby so much that her little glimpse acts like an antidote to my depression

Hi Johanna and Vinod.... Thanks Johanna sharing your country with us..... Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦

[@MrKartik987]

Love this. Always find it amazing how layers and layers of history undergird and go into the making of families, which otherwise 'feel' so mundane and ordinary.

[@silviemarksilverstein3031]

What a lovely video Johanna. Family is so important. You can definitely see the resemblance between uncle Jore when he was a baby and Annika. Everyone falls in love with Annika when they meet her. The other little girl was so sweet and adorable too. You have a lovely family Johanna. Thank you as always for your wonderful videos.😍👍

[@kunalanand4781]

After seeing your finland series I have decided I will definitely go there in the next 3-4 years.

[@fereshtehamrollahi9980]

Your last sentences brought me into tears.Ive lost my father too,and I can feel your connection to your uncle. God bless you all💗💗

[@girijakannan5608]

Annika does resembles her grand uncle.she is so happy and at home with all these relatives.

[@surobhisaikia7730]

Yes, thats what i have noticed from the time she landed in Finland!! She was so comfortable and at ease with her surroundings and the family members !! Its amazing ..

[@shirleygeorge6351]

I really wish your adorable family could be in India for half the year, Johanna & vice versa..Nina & your lovely cute Mom are really going to feel the void..these beautiful posts will sure keep them cheerful & going....Wonderful to see baby Annika's cousin & elders.Those priceless portraits speak a lot of history! Have memorably precious moments with your beautiful family. Thank you for sharing.

U commented my thoughts

[@sridharsubramanyam1364]

Your videos are really nice and gives a feeling of warmth and genuine family touch which I really appreciate.

[@prashantmore3361]

Amazing. Spending time with family is the most precious thing in life. Superb ! Too good . Annika is very lucky to have so many relatives.

[@elisabetta4478]

Wow! Your dynasty has so much to recall from the 2 dreadful world war. It is a proud moment to know they had been a vital part of Finnish independence. By the way, the other little one(Annika's cousin) too is a real cutie pie 😍Love her hair😍

[@brandispry576]

What a wonderful time with family. I love how sweet Olivia was to Annika. It was so adorable to see her play with her.

[@yinyinchan884]

Hi Johanna and Vinod,thanks for sharing your Finland home trip with us. I feel the warmth and love of your family and relatives. Finland in winter is very beautiful.

[@jameswilder7649]

Nordic countries - Denmark🇩🇰, Finland🇫🇮, Iceland🇮🇸, Norway🇳🇴, Sweden🇸🇪 etc. are all so beautiful. (And the girls too, 😁). Great video.

[@sternschnuppe4668]

Dear Johanna, don't be sad!!! Your family and you had a wonderful and precious time together in Finland. Annika has developed so beautifully during this time and she felt so comfortable. Also your husband was so open and warm with everything New!!! Carry it in your heart and maybe soon your family will come to visit you in India. Who knows maybe soon you will move back to your home country with your little family. Everything is coming as it should. Be all protected!!! 🙏💞

[@JohannaNorth]

Well i still miss them a lot when apart, especially since in Kerala we’re pretty much completely alone without support from either of our families 😟 but of course we’re hoping to get them to visit our indian home soon enough!

[@sternschnuppe4668]

@@JohannaNorth Johanna, I am very happy about your answer!!! 🤗I can understand you very well, because I had with my 3 children also no help from the family. You are on your own in Kerala and that can be very challenging at times. Vinod and you, you are a good team and wonderful parents!!! You will see, you will get back into your daily routine in India and it will fall into place as it is right for your little family. Be happy and look forward to your future, it will hold many more wonderful surprises for you and your family. Best regards from Germany 🙏💞😘

[@bhavanakirana7465]

It is so heartwarming to see your family Johanna. Everything is so naturally shot and your sister is so much into kids, they seem to build bond with her so quickly. And yes, Annika resembles your uncle when he was a kid, the face structure especially in that family portrait is so similar to Annika's. I remember seeing your baby photo in one of your videos, you too have similar facial structure. And not to forget those birch and pine trees, they look so beautiful. Finland is a beautiful land. Thank you for sharing and if you are flying to India soon, happy and safe journey.

[@madhavkopalle]

Oh my God...Jorge is an adorable uncle grandfather. Such kind gentleman. I think you should stay back for some more days as Jorge is quite aged and would love to see Annika often.

[@mr.jajabara0405]

Proud heritage,make the most of the happiest holidays,such a beautiful legacy

[@Alfablue227]

❤️seeing your uncle and all the family. He looks so sweet, and Olivia is a sweetheart and so delicate with Annika. What a lovely family and country you have Johanna. I am sure Vinod understands how much you love him, for the sacrifice you made is great and I wud be tearing up at the prospect of having to leave soon, especially when Annika us just so loving your family. Thank you for letting us into your beautiful family and trip. As for 🇫🇮, it is now in a must see for me. Enjoy the rest of your holiday Johanna, and to make leaving less painful, start preparing either your next trip home, or your family's visit to India. Much love going your way. 🙏💟

[@JohannaNorth]

We’re already seeking visas, leaves and such for future trips! We’re already back in India and missing Finland and of course most of all family a lot 💙

[@Alfablue227]

[@JohannaNorth]

@@Alfablue227 well by next year at least you can count on it! 😊

[@RDnAC]

So sweet. Isn’t Olivia also your uncle’s granddaughter or only by marriage? She’s also adorable. We have a saying “Home is where the heart is “ so I understand your sentiment.

[@JohannaNorth]

Well technically she is my uncle’s granddaughter and i also count olivia’s mom Essi as my dearest cousin ❤️ however jore isn’t essi’s father - but a father figure nonetheless having been in a relationship with essi’s mother for over 30 years. By blood and name, me and my sister are the only ones to continue my father’s side if the family tree

[@sophianaqvi3697]

Wow the way ur uncle looks at annika with pure love is beautiful

[@brilliantbutblue]

-9 practically a heat wave for Finland 😆❄. Oh my goodness l do see the resemblance to Uncle Jore, that was a suprise. You should have just taken Nina home with you, she is the best Auntie, hearing the Girls playing and giggling was wonderful, Olivia's hair is gorgeous. Thinking of you Johanna at this time of readjustment 💞

[@JohannaNorth]

When the temperature rises to zero we put our t-shirts on and go bask in the warm sun 😎 Annika has of course lot of resemblance with vinod and his mom also, but many people wouldnt have realised before that she can get some of the ”indian features” even from my side! Like both my mom and Jore had naturally black hair, so it’s not just dark indian features 😄 though Annika’s pretty curls are definitely from vinod! Maybe we’ll kidnap Nina next time 🥰

[@travelindiatreasures]

Annika so cute.. feeling grumpy while mummy fits her into her layered clothes 🤩. Again the glimpses of scenic winter wonderland on the way to meeting up with grandparent Jore n fam 🌟 Very warm n lovely catch up. Indeed they will all be part of a treasure trove of sweet memories Johanna. Understable if ur feeling emotional at this point. You r a strong person. Look back at what u hv achieved together with Vinod. Many more wonderful things to achieve. Stay Blessed n Stay safe everyone 💝

I think Vinod was joking when he said -9°C was not so cold. 😂😅

[@jwyoutube24]

I feel for you about having to go back to India, you will miss all your family a lot and Annika will miss them too, although she's still so little. I guess with with the technology we have now such as video calls the world feels less far away... I hope you can go back to Finland in summer time, I would love to see all these gougers places you just showed us with the snow during the warm months. lots of love xxx

I think Annika has her own exotic look being the perfect mix between you and Vinod! I don't agree she looks like Uncle Jore. Maybe she got his baby cheeks😀Annika will be very beautiful and very intelligent as she quickly grows up.

[@sreepillaizzz]

Nina's description of "Finland during summer" made me wonder how different it could be! I feel guilty that I feel curious to know more when I watch your videos.. I feel curious to know how your dad looked like... It would be great if you made a video on your old photo albums..... But I realise that would be too much to ask for.. But a photo of your dad would be great.. Sorry if I said something wrong 🙏🏻 welcome back to India ❤️❤️❤️

[@JohannaNorth]

I’ve shared my dad’s photo on my Instagram sometimes 😊 i dont feel comfortable sharing very much about him or my childhood photos on video, as i get very emotional about it as i’m still in the grieving process over his death

[@sreepillaizzz]

@@JohannaNorth ok I really did feel so.. I respect your feelings.. 🙏 and yes, I too was very close to my daddy. It's now 10 years since he passed away but I still miss him a lot.. I too never felt like sharing my dad's picture online even on any special day, that way I want to keep him and his memories close to my heart... Take care Jo ❤️❤️❤️

[@jaganpandurangan8121]

[@nicolepilgrim3142]

I would organize it that every 2 years I spend at least 4 months in Finland, a friend of our family does that here… every year she goes up to USA colorado and spends 6 months there at her daughters home with her grand children, and the the other 6mths she lives here in the Caribbean at her home. This way she gets the best of both worlds the only downside it that it might be expensive to do annually

[@JohannaNorth]

Our dream is to split the year between our two countries one day, but unfortunately it is not an option in many years 😟
