- Hello, you nature lovers 🥰
In this video, I show a bit of our old, once-forgotten garden that I'm trying to recreate. Our grocery shops are far away so even the thought of being able to harvest from our own yard is amazing 😍
But, since this is North, summer is not summer as how it is supposed to be. But I'm willing to make an extra effort trying to have this garden grow and produce again.
I hope you enjoy this, a part of my world 💚

I'm a nature lover and creative soul living far North of Finland. I live in a remote village, in an old farmhouse, travel in the North, and seek inspiration in the wild nature around me.
I create photographs, videos, and music, inspired by this Nordic nature and its magic.
Welcome to my world 💛

God has truly blessed you!
Such a precious video!! Thank you for sharing your area with us!!❤
Your pure innocent open heartedness and joy are so moving and uplifting! Thank you! 😍💖🌹
I just love your video's and it's so refreshing to see how you take such pleasure and happiness out of the little things in life, it's not often seen in this crazy world we live in. Thank you!
Last summer I found wild mint growing on my land. It has a wonderful taste and is stronger and rather different from the mint we can buy fresh in the supermarkets or the mint seedlings that we can buy, to plant. (NH, USA)
long waiting, ah yet so beautiful that its all worth it, God provides Sanna
i really enjoy how all your video and commentary has a ring of poetry about it. i imagine you would be a delightful conversationalist. fingers crossed for a good summer harvest!
Oh, thank you 🥰 That’s so nice. To be honest, I’m really bad if I’d have to talk without being able to plan anything. I first write everything down that I talk in these videos 😁
@@sannavaara :-) it's really just the way you think and see the world. but, yes, these simple poetic videos would need some real planning - that's what makes them so easily enjoyable. thanks!
My goal is to come to a point where no one will knock my door again, telling me that i owe something or that i have to pay for something. I wish you and yours the best.
Wow, that is a wonderful goal. It's funny since it's not that long ago since that was normal people's lives. Things have changed so fast. I hope you get to your goal soon.
@@sannavaara Thank you.
Your videos are so beautiful… my favorite. Congratulations on your new home. The fireplace is incredible!
Such Stunningly beautiful scenery. I have very similar reactions to yours when I am out in nature; the beautiful feeling of the stillness and the exhilaration of the air, and just the aliveness of it all.
I also love to knit I find it to be very therapeutic, and, like you, I wish I had a wonderful yarn store nearby, so that I didn’t have to order it online, which is not the same as seeing and feeling it in person, when you are making a choice! I love your cozy, living practices, and your adorable little pups!❤
Sanna, your channel is beautiful. I'm in love. I already signed up. Hugs dear.... from Brazil
💜💜💜
Delightful video. Your sheer joy admiring and enjoying 🎉nature is refreshing and inspiring. ❤
Thank you,

I like the pronunciation of you when telling the name of you my name is sanna vaara 🙂people all looking for happiness u are finding in a very simple way 👍🏻🙏
so 🌱nice🌺thanx🌻🌱
No sorry Sanna here we are experiencing a mini heat wave that has so far lasted us 2 weeks without a drop of rainfall. And the thunderstorms forecast to freshen our winds, did not materialise as expected but inland trees gained from the downpours, so hopefully will top up our rivers with run off. Didn't expect to see more snow fall but as your video points out that is Northern Nordic life for you, expect the unexpected and hope it does not last. Cheers for sharing and take care. From Aberdeen in Scotland.
I’m so sorry to hear you have to deal with those kind of heat waves and drought, it is terrible 😕 Nature does what it best can and eventually will survive, one way or the other 💚
Kaunis Suomi.
I love this! Makes me long for Finnish Lapland where I have my roots (I live in Sweden now). Great video!
Are you planning on also making a Q&A - video?
Sweden is the second best place, so you have chosen well 😁 That is a good idea, I could do that in the future. But if you have any questions now, you are free to ask them here or on instagram, I always answer all questions personally ☺
Love your videos.... Sanna❤️
Thank you ☺
Thank you for sharing.
🥰❤️
Potatoes are literally free money. I also live in the North of Sweden and potatoes, lettuce and radishes is my go to for the summer. Plus I don't have as much space to grow as you do. 💚 Good luck with the crops this summer! 🌞
I think so, too! We just have to figure out a place to store them in the meantime when they are growing. All the best to you and your crops in North Sweden, that's also a wonderful place to live ☺
Hei! I just started learning finish and sinä olet kaunis,söpö, ja minä rakastan sinua. Love your videos, keep up the good work
Wow, Finnish isn't an easy language! You're doing well ☺
Hello Sanna I love watching your channel, and the area where you live is also great, we don't have that here in the Netherlands. I can't wait for the next video.
Good luck with the garden, hope it works out
Greetings from the Netherlands
Thank you 🥰 I've once been to the Netherlands and it was very different, I remember. But I sometimes. envy your possibilities to grow and harvest there.
@@sannavaara It is indeed easier to grow vegetables here, I also have a garden here to grow vegetables
Is it your own music that we are hearing in this video?
Maybe looking for a ( second hand) serre… I can imagine you ll need it !!
How wonderful that you have started your garden. Good luck with it and I wish you a nice harvest from your own garden. 😍❤
If I could I would send you some warmth.
I really enjoyed your Vlog 👍
Here in the Netherlands it has been extremely dry for weeks with wind, making it even drier even faster. It is also very hot. We've had temperatures above 30 degrees for a few days now.
And in Limburg we are already experiencing the first heat wave.
Here I hope it rains soon. But it doesn't look like that's going to happen any time soon.
Aww, thank you so much, Monique 🥰I'm sure I will celebrate our harvest, no matter how large or small, warmly and gratefully.
Ugh, that sounds awful. Heat is the worst since there is no way to escape it. I really hope it gets better soon, that is not good for anyone to have it that hot and dry 😥I try to suck some warmth from you up here, maybe it'll get better for both of us, then😁
@@sannavaara It worked Sanna. It's a little less warm. 😀 Also a little bit of rain. Hopefully there will be some more rain here.
I hope it has warmed up a bit for you now 😁
@@MoniquefromTheNetherlands , haha, we must have some kind of powers when we were able to do this 😁 I’m glad it’s better there ❤️
@@sannavaara hahaha yes it looks like we have that 😁❤
Very good video. ❤❤
Aww, thank you so much 🥰
Nice. You guys are making progress with the new place! Do you compost at home? It's easy to do and it would definitely help your veggies to grow. Good luck 👍
That we will definitely do, but for now we only have garden compost. Next year I hope we can purchase compost for all food waste from our kitchen, too, but they are quite expensive since they need to be good and work throughout the winter, too.
Lovely video 😊
Thank you 🥰❤
Who sing that song at the end? Help
Anybody pls!!! ❤ thx in advance
It's a wonderful place you've got. What is the age of the house? It looks like it is a traditional Finnish construction. Do you have a sauna?
Thank you 🥰 Our house is 175 years old and a very traditional old Finnish style log house. I’m planning to make a house-tour video where I tell more about our house ☺️ We do have sauna, it’s an essential part of a Finnish house ☺️
I feel sad u are getting very few like on videos sister
