These are the parenting goals we all should learn from this couple. Thank you for doing this. We learn a lot from your videos. You also show us where we might have to do better in raising our children.

Anyways, my kids want to do a trip on Lapland express to Rovaniemi next winter. We hope to make the trip and vlog it. Your videos are helping me prepare for my upcoming possible business trips (Visa approvals pending) to Vantaa, FI. Looking forward to visiting the NORDICS next year for sure. Keep sharing your adventure it is fun to watch your little bundle of joy, grow.

[@JohannaNorth]

In June there are usually no fresh blueberries in the forests, the season only starts in July. The pie was made from frozen blueberries that were picked last year! 😊 some coldest parts of lapland (northernmost Finland) have already received the first snow, in southern Finland where our home is the first snow can come any time in Oct-Dec. Usually later, but last year the first snow already came in October!

[@shantanushekharsjunerft9783]

I thought “sauna” was an English word but the way Johanna was pronouncing it I figured it could be a Finnish word. It has very interesting origin: “ The word sauna comes from the Finnish language, and its origins date back to ancient times. It is believed to be one of the oldest words in the Finnish language, possibly dating back thousands of years. In its traditional sense, a sauna refers to a small, heated room or building used for bathing, where steam and heat are generated by throwing water onto hot stones. The practice of sauna bathing has deep roots in Finnish culture, where it has been a central part of daily life for relaxation, cleanliness, and health.”

[@JohannaNorth]

Yes, it is a Finnish word and a big part of our culture! 😊

Love watching your videos sweetheart. I'm 67 years old, and have to say that GOD IS REAL, SWEETHEART! Every where we look we see Him. DARWINISM and BIG BANG THEORY, was the BIGGEST LIE, perpetrated on mankind. If there is so much EVIL in the world, there has to be GOOD, and a God that absolutely loves us. It's WRITTEN ON OUR HEARTS, what is RIGHT and what is WRONG. Where do you think these feelings comes from, globally?? Love you sweetheart. Please think about these things. We have been LIED TO ABOUT EVERY THING BY AN EVIL CABAL. All the CONSPIRACY THEORIES ARE PROVING TO BE TRUE. God bless you always. Watch the Fibonacci series that PROVE THAT GOD IS REAL. We cannot grow if we don't want to learn new things.
