I’ve lived in Finland for most of my 40-odd years but I can never get over how weird the nightless nights feel at the beginning of every summer.

It’s 3am and this is as about as dark as it gets. That just ain’t right, it ain’t natural. Makes a person wish for thicker curtains

    In Lapland, the sun stays above the horizon all the time. In southern parts, it’s still just barely below the horizon. Even in Helsinki, there won’t be a completely dark night, given the weather is clear, for like the next two or three weeks.
