Welcome again to our minimalist Nordic life in Finland! 🏡
In this video, I’ll show you how we prepare for winter! ❄️ From switching to winter tires (it’s the law) to ensuring we stay healthy with vitamin D supplements, I cover the essential steps to get ready for the extreme cold.

I also dive into how we keep our home cozy, layer up in winter clothes, and prepare our cars with special winter fluids and snow tires, even winter tires for our bikes! 🚗🚲 Indoors, it’s all about warmth and light... stocking up on firewood, checking heating systems, and creating a cozy atmosphere with candles and soft lighting.

I'll also share how we embrace the long, dark winters here in Finland, find beauty in the season’s peacefulness, and stay active with winter sports.

Very similar to Canada 😊 We have free flu and COVID shots for anyone over 6 months old, snow tires, wool sweaters and socks, hats and mittens. Short days long night's but a brightly lit fireplace and candles, maybe a hot cup of coco make for cosy evening's 😊

I found this channel this evening. I love Finland and Finnish life, even if the weather is cold in wintertime. I live in Italy but I hate the hot summers. thank you for sharing this video.

From 🇨🇦 here and your list is very familiar. I lost my beloved husband in March and you gave me a good reminder to put the winter windshield fluid in and make sure the ice scraper is in my car. I got the tires dealt with in late September- the law here is from Oct 1.

I got my 9 battery operated flicker candles out last week- it’s so dark now and I am enjoying the cosy warm light in the dark corners of my living/dining/kitchen room (apartment).

My big tip is to stock up on heavy stuff like bags of flour, tinned soups, jars of stuff at the grocery store before the snow hits and ice forms in the parking lot. It’s hard to get the carts out over the ice to the car or pack it out in bags. Fill the pantry before it gets icy.

Living in Canada we share the same winter preparation as my winters can go down to -45c. Winter tires are not mandatory though, although I wish they were as I think they truly help with the ice and snow!

As the other Canadians have noted my part of Canada is much the same, without snow tires being mandatory but encouraged. I love winter but we don't get it much anymore and every year we have less snow which I miss so much. Cats are always the best at adapting to the changing seasons. My cats love to lie on heat pads so I have to ensure the pads are tucked under blankets so the cats don't get burnt. Otherwise I just have little tea lights and drape Christmas tree lights around the house to give a little sparkle to evenings. And yes, I always ensure that basic provisions are in the house in case we do get stuck inside for a few days. Thank you for sharing!

Another lovely video Kuro ❤️❤️❤️ yes your homes are well prepared for winter and all that preparation gets you through it. What a beautiful waterfall with those vibrant autumn trees adding so much colour. That camper van made me smile I once travelled around Europe in an orange one. It was so much fun I was a lot younger then 😂. Moomin shop I am in heaven. Tove Jansson was a talented artist. I believe her father was an excellent sculptor. Yes it’s the way you embrace the darkness and having that mentality helps you through. Who doesn’t love a snowy landscape so crisp and clean. I love the way you always light candles when eating so cosy in the winter. Have a lovely time abroad with your friends ☺️

Dans la région de France où je vis, les hivers peuvent être rude. Fin octobre et début novembre, les garages sont pris d'assaut pour le changement de roue, en effet nous faisons mettre nos pneus hiver mais non clouté, généralement nous avons un jeu de 4 roues complètes c'est plus simple.
Nous remplissons les cuves pour le chauffage en Août ou Septembre parce que c'est moins cher quand octobre et on fait rentrer le bois également. Les celliers sont pleins et on profite de l'automne pour chercher des champignons des noix et des baies. Les bonnets, chapeaux, écharpes et gants ressortent ainsi que les manteaux, doudounes et collants. Nous n'avons pas de pneus hiver pour nos vélos, dommage mais on prend le vélo quand même. Il faut dire que cela fait un moment que nous n'avons pas eu de vrai température négative mais j'ai connu du moins 10.
Il y a 4 ans nous avons eu 40 cm de neige et l'hiver rien du tout. Ce ne fut pas un vrai hiver, c'est à peine envoyé descendu à zéro.

My part of 🇨🇦 is very similar (flu shots, winter tires [not mandatory but encouraged], change of type of clothing in the wardrobe, winter sports, vitamin D). Still not my favourite season (much prefer spring and autumn) but better to adapt and find enjoyment where one can than sitting at home and feeling miserable!☃️

What a beautiful country you live in.
I would like to say thank you for your past videos, they have helped me downsize and to declutter.
One preparation I do every autumn is to check my food cupboards and freezer to make sure I have enough of the essentials items . Also I always make sure that my heating is serviced properly. Plus also to make sure I got enough non food essentials. And I do try and get out every day at the moment it’s mild for October and damp, but today we have got a beautiful sunny day .

Another beautiful video. I always feel at peace when watching them. Hopefully one day I can visit the Nordic countries and experience the culture. Where I live we are currently going into summer.

I love the winter months - mainly because of the fashions. People have to think more carefully about what they wear, rather than slop around in shorts, flip-flops and t-shirts in the warmer weather. In the UK, leaves on the train tracks or snow on the roads usually brings everything to a grinding halt. We never seem prepared for anything and we get the same sort of weather every winter, so there really is no excuse. The infrastructure in Finland seems so ready to tackle anything that comes its way.

I loved this video. I struggle with the short, dark days in the northern USA, so it was very inspiring. Kuro is not worried about the winter. He knows he’s safe and taken care of which is partly why I love you so much!
