I think you understand David Attenborough, and there is something beyond voice itself that is magical: Attenborough's inquisitiveness and yours, ... I haven't found a word for it, but I am going to find out. I am wondering, what if you use the same trick in a political debate? That's a crazy idea for sure.

[@junehitchcock170]

Thank you. I have planning to go there with grandkids. Very useful info.

What an excellent Promo Video for a Finnish Winter Holiday !

[@mjohn3205]

You made me add another place to my bucket list!!!

[@MemorySeekers]

Glad we did 😊

[@LaureninGermany]

This was absolutely wonderful. I have to admit, I actually called out to my husband and teared up when you showed that you had seen the lights! And for some reason, sending a postcard stamped from the Artic circle is just magical. Merry Christmas and thank you for all the inspiring videos this year. They have really made me want to see more of the world.

[@april7_]

I think also it is a rarety. I live in middle of Finland and here it may be seen couple of times in winter, but not as bright as in north. We have been in rental cabins north about 4 times now one week period a time and never seen Aurora borealis and the reason is cloudy or snowy weather, so if you head here to Lapland it is a rare to see it!

[@JodysJourney]

The aurora borealis AND reindeer. How fun! 😃❤️

@@MemorySeekers Your video is informative and well done. Stands out from the videos of many tourists. The dark time in Lapland lasts a few weeks at most, and in southern Finland only days. There is snow in Lapland for 4-6 months and in March-April the sun shines full of the sky. Winter is a great time. Finnish summers are warm and the sun shines 24 hours a day in midsummer.

I'll never forget being in guard duty in the middle of the night, seeing the black silhouettes of our artillery pieces against the Aurora Borealis. It was such a contrast, machines of death with such a beautiful back drop.

[@mikrokupu]

Great to see my childhood Lapland through visitors eyes, thanks! The British visitors typically visit Lapland around Christmas, while Finns like to travel to north later in spring, often around Eastern. There are much more day light available then, it's less cold usually and still plenty of snow left around March-April.

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you for sharing we would like to come back around the times you mention and maybe even try a summer trip. So beautiful as you head north.

[@wopmf4345FxFDxdGaa20]

Yeah, there's actually a lot more snow in March-April. Snow accumulates whole winter and peaks at around April in Lapland and a bit earlier around March elsewhere.
