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

    I’m Norwegian and I love the fact it doesn’t get properly dark, it can be so beautiful outside during the constant twilight. Also the fact the sun is up until 22:41 (as of 16.06.2023, I check the weather pages that list this.) This is one reason I don’t want to change the daylight savings. Then we could rather stay on summer time, so we don’t have to adjust all the clocks. But that’s another discussion. If we were on winter time the sun would go down as early as 21.41 today :(
