Here's a few snaps from Aavasaksa, where I climbed with my mum and even did some blueberry picking, though it was only early season and there weren't that many. (Fun fact; Aavasaksa translated is "open Germany" which is a bit strange! And I don't know if that was that much fun, haha.) I had actually been to Aavasaksa before, but it was lovely to be back and the view down is always spectacular, no matter which way you look. It was around +30°C and I genuinely felt like melting. And obviously I was very appropriately dressed for roaming in the forest in my maxi dress, haha! It was all good fun, though:-)

Oh what a beautiful place remind me a bit of the PNW here in The States but not as many mountains. So glad you had a good time.

What a beautiful place! And I love your maxi! Where's it from? x
Wow what a stunning place!
Very beautiful place!
Oi, ihana Suomi! :) I've only been to Lapland during kevättalvi, so it was snow-covered and sparkling and not at all like these summery photos. It's interesting how the landscape looks familiar but also so different from what I'm used to in Keski-Suomi and Helsinki. The North is so exotic :)
You captured beautiful details, like the tiny bell-shaped flowers. I love that you wore a maxi dress to go blueberry picking, that's totally something I would do :)

Isabella - it's so different in every season! i've always travelled/been more around the north, but it's true about what you said about it being both very different and familiar to the south&keski-suomi. thank you very much, doll! haha, i did actually wear more appropriate clothes once we went blueberry picking later in the summer, but this was so like me as well:-) and it's still so strange to me when you speak finnish occasionally haha! xx

Winnie - haha, it was too hot for the air to be fresh on that day, but usually i'd say it is:-) and it is definitely a place to go for relaxing (or hiking if that's what you're into), gal! x
