    The snow isn't weird, it's just too cold :) There are a lot of words for snow in finnish as there are a lot of different kinds of snow. You can only make snowballs at around 0'C.

      @@kennedymthomas I'd call that a "powder snow", how it snows when it is cold (maybe around -10 and below Celsius) like people said it is "dry" crystalline snow (or ice rather) so it does not stick together as easily. At -20 and beyond snow usually falls as big perfect even cartoony looking ice crystals, I'm always in some sort of awe when I see it myself. It is less powdery because the crystals are like even 0.5 cm big even but it usually reflects light differently to smaller crystals and if there's enough of it on the ground which makes it look "sparkly" or "glittery" everywhere... well at least if there's some light sources.

    All reindeer in Finland are both wild and tame, every reindeer is owned by a farmer but they are free to roam in the wild. Every reindeer is tagged so that you know who's it is.

    11:07 Hi from Finland! The show doesn't stick together because it's so cold. It needs a little water in it to stick so you need temperatures close to freezing point for that to happen. When it becomes too cold all the water is frozen and it doesn't stick anymore.

    Bear in Finnish is karhu, so I was very confused when you kept saying that the airbnb is called ostella which doesn't mean bear but "to shop around" :D but then I realised the name must be Otsola (otso is old word for bear) and you just pronounced it weird :)

    I once set up a tent in Tankavaara village during the summer. In the morning, I was woken up by this weird munching sound. So, I slowly lift the zipper high enough, and the first thing I see is a tongue, a reindeer tongue, then a head. A reindeer was eating moss or lichen right in front of my tent opening. That reindeer wasn't even startled seeing me face to face. I was like - umm, ok, I'll put on some clothes now, so please let me out in a moment. Later I heard, that reindeer was one of the local celebs, he just liked to hang out there.

    11:10 You cannot build a snowman unless the snow is close to 0 °C. When you visited the Santa, the temperature was -9 °C which is way too for snow to stick together.

    7:05 It takes about 60 minutes to properly heat up the sauna and you will have to add some more firewood during that time. 🔥
