HUSKY SLEDDING AT THE NORTH POLE?? Exploring the Arctic Circle, are you kidding me? What even is this life??
This Finland vlog was unlike anything else we have done so far. Throughout the whole beginning of this journey, Alaytra had NO IDEA what our destination or activities were going to be. She sure was in for a shock when we touched down in Finland, setting off for the maximum wintertime experience.
We started things off in Helsinki where we attempted to see what we could of the city life. We then took a late-night sleeper car train all the way up to Rovaniemi. And that is where we made our home for the rest of the weekend. After checking in to the Apukka Resort, we had the opportunity to try out as many of their experiences as we had time for! We went Husky Sledding, sat in a sleigh pulled by a Reindeer, took a Snowmobile tour, and enjoyed a relaxing Sauna. The fun and surprises didn't stop there. In addition to their priced activities, we also had a good time racing down their giant sledding hill and taking in the gorgeous views... the Northern Lights!
Lastly, the room. Oh my gosh, our hotel room was worth going for all by itself. Tucked away in our own little nook of the resort, we had everything we could want for a cozy little cottage. Hot tea, stunning decor, and a skylight roof above the bed with a view of the stars.
Tell us, where, in Europe, we should try and go to next! What would you like us to share? What did you think of the video? Leave a comment, like, and subscribe for more!!

It doesn't matter if it's wooden or electric sauna. You MUST throw some water to the stones, because that makes the steam/moisture in the sauna and that feels more comfortable. Dry 50 C is not a sauna!

Watering the walls of an electric sauna before you go in helps a lot, and a decent sauna temperature is about 80 degrees celsius.

Fun fact: Rovaniemi is the largest city by area in Europe. Also normally Finnish people heat up the sauna to about 80-95 degrees Celsius and even up to 105, and 50-60 degrees is considered a rather cold sauna. Traditionally people have given birth, dried up hemp, sweetened malts and even smoked ham in a sauna. And there are more saunas than cars in Finland, around 3 million saunas in a country of 5.5 million people.

Wow! This has to be the best video yet. I was engrossed watching it. I actually felt cold as well watching you guys. I can’t believe you’ve still got over another 30 countries to go before you reach your goal 😂. How are you going to fit them all in? 😂. Have you done the lowland countries like Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg? What about further south as in Bulgaria? Egypt is another option and not that long a flight either.

Jordan here! Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the video 😁. We have lots of exciting things planned for this year, including some of the lowland countries you mentioned. Egypt is high on my list, but we are starting to exit the optimal season to visit (way too hot for me). I definitely want to go soon, so stay tuned 😊

Also, if you have too MUCH on, you wlll be more cold than warm. Usually if you get those thermal jumpsuits, you should just have something light inside. 'Cause if the layers don't have any air between them, the amout of layers doesn't matter. Air between layers is an isolator.

Very nice video. Planning to go this year. Can I just ask what type is your accommodation in Apukka, is it the Kammi or Komsio suite? And one more thing what type of camera recorder did you use for your vlog? Many thanks!

50 degrees? Otherwise good video but that....that is not a Finnish sauna experience. I needed to go back and listen again that you actually said 50. When I was little (like 4 years old) my father told me that sauna needs to be atleast 60 degrees before you can enter it. 75 to 85 is the perfect temperature.

i think the thermometer was broken..... you can't blame these guys for thinking it was 50 degrees Celsius... that is what it read. Water freezes at zero and doesn't turn to steam until 100 and a hot sauna would be 80 degrees ideally

Were there any travel restrictions in place for you as non-EU citizens? I'm trying to verifiy whether travel to Finland is only available for countries on the green list. Thanks.

When you go to an actual Finnish sauna, you'll have to 'breath through your tongue'. That is, in the heat one is supposed to open their mouth only a little bit, stick a bit of the tongue in that opening with air around and thus run all the air into the lungs through the moist of the tongue and the mouth. Breathing full on will hurt you like hell. It is not recommended. We learn this as children in Finland. Nobody says this out loud. So you are welcome. The same goes for inhaling cold air in these resorts. You'll soon understand why. And then you'll be fine both in sauna and the rides. It's really natural. as in survival instinc.
