Sure winter can be boring and bad, but instead of looking at the bad side of it try to look at the brighter side and be contented. In my four years stay in Finland I would be lying if I say I always love winter because I don’t. I came from a tropical country and I am not used into this kind of weather. I suffered from having sinusitis on my first year here in Finland. But I didn’t regret winter. Why? Well, just look at the view outside every time it’s full of snow. I always tried ways on how I will be enjoying the winter in Finland. Just embrace it because there’s nothing you can do about it. Winter is part of Finnish lives. Just accept it!

Have fun while enjoying the winter. Not everyone is lucky enough to experience snow. Take your camera outside and capture those moments and beautiful landscapes around you. Take your kids with you for a walk and let them play and enjoy the snow. You would be surprise how kids love being outside, breathe fresh air while playing in the snow. My child always amazes me every time we are out in the cold. She loves snow and she loves playing with it. Her shoes may be covered with snow, she may be fall down, etc, but i can see how much she loved it. She loves snow sledding and doesn’t really care about the cold.

It’s not difficult to find ways enjoying the winter. Just make sure you wear enough warm clothes before you go out. Walking through the cold is one of the best exercise and stress therapy. Have fun and enjoy winter while you can because then few more weeks later and spring will come. And then few more weeks to go we will welcome summer. But right now just be happy and enjoy winter, okay?
