Details about life in Finland and why you can fall in love with this country Bashny.Net

People of Finland They can boast that they live in one of the most prosperous and happy countries in the world. It seems that here is not the most favorable natural conditions. However, the Finns themselves try to find advantages, rather than looking for excuses and excuses.

It is quite interesting to see how Finland manages to creatively solve even the most difficult problems. After all, in winter it is very comfortable to live here. Although, for example, for residents of any Russian city, winter turns into a rather problematic time.

Moreover, cunning officials only frown on all claims, scold the “severe Russian winter” and ask to endure until spring. In neighboring Finland, the climate is the same, but problems are solved much better. And the arrival of snow with frost here is not a surprise. How do Finns enjoy each winter?



It is unlikely that any reader can be surprised in winter by uncleared streets, icicles hanging over their heads and slippery sidewalks. And the ubiquitous salt, with the help of which they try to overcome the ice, everyone is tired of it. It seems that she only spoils shoes and gives little.

Once wintertimeYou may doubt that it is January. The central streets are absolutely clean and dry, there is no snow, no snowdrifts, no salt, not even granite crumbs.

The fact is that there is a controlled street heating system that allows you to quickly melt snow and remove water. As a result, in any weather (and in any winter), these streets are clean and dry.



No icicles on the roofs. So you don't have to look up and worry about a piece of ice falling on your head. How does that happen? Again, the problem is solved by heating. Water pipes and roofs of buildings are heated. As a result, neither snowdrifts nor icicles are simply formed.

Of course, all the streets are not heated, so you have to use it. granite. It has proven to be much better than any reagents, it is safe for both humans and animals. And it can be used again. And at the end of winter, this crumb is collected, cleaned and sent for storage. Unsuitable crumbs are taken to enterprises that process it.



It is also interesting how responsibility is distributed in Finland. For example, the maintenance of the main streets rests on the shoulders of the city authorities. But for the cleanliness of small streets, sidewalks and courtyards are the people who live here. Residents are either engaged in improvement themselves, or private companies are involved in this.

Interesting to see and in Finnish-style. Both old and new homes are built on the same principles. For example, all doors are the same, the owners can not just take and replace the door at their discretion. Also on each door is not only the apartment number, but also the name of the tenant.



In addition, in the entrance you can easily find a list of all tenants and their apartment numbers. So it's hard to get lost here. Even the elevator doors are transparent. This allows you to add a space of openness and, accordingly, security. After all, everyone who rides in the elevator, involuntarily watching everything that happens on all floors. This is how it works. passive social control.

The Finnish keys are also interesting. They are distinguished by enviable versatility, because such a key fits both the gate, and the door to the entrance, and the front door to the apartment. Therefore, a person does not need to carry a whole bunch of keys - just one "complex" key is enough. Comfortable!



Of course, interesting moments and striking differences can be seen a lot. And the Finns themselves are not in the clouds and note that much remains to be done. They talk about ambitious plans that are yet to be implemented.

However, even the available impressive, makes you admire. It is noticeable that the life of each person is valued here, much is done for the convenience of ordinary citizens. Hence, high places in the rankings of the most prosperous and happiest countries.



We offer to watch the winter trip to Finland journalist Ilya Varlamov (he traveled just before the beginning of the war between Russia and Ukraine). Here, a well-known public figure tried to show what a comfortable country Russia could become and what path it would lead to.

Unfortunately, the current Russian political leadership has chosen a different path. Military invasion Tens of thousands of casualties, sanctions and isolation from the entire civilized world, the absence of any prospects, the escalating economic crisis.

It is unlikely that shocked citizens will long believe the tales that “everything goes according to plan.” I don't think they'll be able to take it long. But how many years will it take to turn the country towards development? Will it be possible to return at least that low pre-war standard of living?
