Feel the free

There’s a saying ‘the best things in life a free’ – well, not always, but we also believe there’s a small truth behind the phrase. Therefore, we also encourage our guests to explore freely and do little things that bring joy or surprise. Small things might be super impactful – what do you think, would your day get better if you tried some of the following?

• Walk up to Ounasvaara and focus on your breathing.

• Tune into the soundscape – whether it’s the hush of the forest or the city’s subtle rhythm.

• Give a stranger a genuine compliment.

• Take the stairs or enter your hotel room backward – it’s good for your brain!

• Discover local street art and let it inspire you.

• Visit Rovaniemi’s library, an architectural gem filled with books and Aalto’s design.

• Hug a tree in the forest – the effect might surprise you!

• Go for a run or a bike ride. It’s a great way to discover Rovaniemi from new angles!

• Follow the movements of birds or small animals – nature’s biggest wonders often come in small sizes.

• Start a conversation with a local. Finns are considered silent, but you might just bust a myth!
