Summer is still here. We Finns are lucky to be able to pick up berries and mushrooms freely. This year has been so far great with blueberries and .

This high five helps you to remember all that is important to stay and keep others healthy in the nature too!

👉 Keep distance from others at all places. In nature there is space for everyone but remember to keep two meters distance also by a fireplace or in a bird watch tower.

👉 Make sure you don’t need a fireplace! Pack a ready-made meal in your backpack. You can then enjoy it whenever you spot a beautiful place to sit down - at a distance from others.

👉 Avoid places that are popular even at normal times; now they are packed. Instead, explore the nature close to you or visit a place more unknown. There is plenty of choice!

👉 Mind the hand hygiene.

👉 During a fire warning it is forbidden to lit up an open fire. Check the actual warnings at Finnish meteorological institute: https://en.ilmatieteenlaitos.fi/warnings

City center of Helsinki is quiet and empty because of Coronavirus COVID-19. 😷🤧😷🤧We are working and studying at homes. All leisure time places are closed, almost.

Nature and forests are still open and this has been a problem lately. Routes at nationalpark areas in Southern Finland are crowdy.👨‍👨‍👧‍👦👨‍👨‍👦‍👦👨‍👨‍👧‍👧👨‍👧‍👦👨‍👧👩‍👧‍👧👩‍👦‍👦👨‍👧‍👧👩‍👩‍👧‍👧👨‍👩‍👧

We Finns go to forest while having difficulties, it gives us peace and hope. At these times with Coronavirus its complicated while we should keep distance to each others.

This situation tells a lot of our state of mind. Our connection to nature and especially to forest isn't broken yet.

That's great. The athmosphere in the forest give to us the peace of mind. Daily routines are so confused that visiting the forest clear our thoughts.🌲🌲🌲
