    As a non-native Finnish speaker, I would like to understand what you talk about with other lady while kneading the dough. Also, bear watching seems to be so much fun! I wanna be there soon to watch those bears in peaceful nature. I really enjoyed this Lapland adventure. Thanks!!!

    Greetings from rural Australia. Today my husband and I were going to arrive in Finland for a week, to visit my friend. We started writing as penpals when we were 8 and 9 years of age. She is from Rovaniemi but now is a teacher in Vantaa. Hopefully we can still visit in a year or 2. Thank you for sharing. Your video shows Finland as a truly beautiful place.
