    I have a friend who lived here for years and was from Australia. The one thing I learned from her was that as Australian you are accommodated to have a lot more sun than we are and even us have problems to get our vitamin D. The big difference is that your body is use to have a lot of it. So you are going to need to supplement it in bigger dose than what the locals do. And you probably should do that no matter if it winter or summer. They don't talk about that in here because most don't understand the difference. That was one of the thing she was taught by the company she worked so I would trust to that information. And that will be super important for your health in so many ways especially now when we are heading towards the dark months. Please take care of that aspect.

Nature is the CORE of every Finnish person, we are connected to it in a way that few can understand it. The Peace it can give to you. Even the natives in the America embraced us because of our connection to the nature. There is literally people called Finndians in the America LOL (look it up). Anyways, great video and I hope you'll find your place among us. I will certainly welcome you here with such a great and broad perspective of it all!

    You are so brave to move to Finland, especially with the distance to Australia. As a finn you just made me appreciate my homeland so much more. Thank you for that! The editing, cinematography and music on this video was so sick and beautifully delivered! Overall this has to be one of the best quality videos that I've seen in a while. You just earned yourself a new subscriber! :) Good luck with your future adventures!

    The editing, music, and vibe of this video went absolutely crazy tbh.
    I'm an american from the east coast who also plans to move to a nordic country soon, but in my case it'll be Sweden! I'd love to experience the cold and more free lifestyle that the nordics offer.

    Good luck surviving the winter, mate.
    It's a beautiful country, especially for nature lovers, the summer months are definitely the best, but if you're okay with the cold, there's no shortage of winter hobbies.
    Really well made video!

    I’m in Helsinki now and walked around Katajanokka to see the icebreakers and prison hotel. Nice quiet area so close to the centre. I can’t wait to explore the countryside especially the north. It looks breathtaking

    Your channel will definitely grow and support you. Really fresh and inspiring story telling and editing 💙 You will definitely find work in e.g. teams of other (yet bigger) youtubers in Finland or production companies 👍🏼 I myself left Finland for Australia when I was young, so interesting and inspiring to follow your journey. I immediately got a new idea for making my own RUclips from this video, thank you! You have a vision, trust it!
