【Staying Alone in the Forest Nearby the City Center】獨自探索位於市中心旁的森林｜University of Lapland｜芬蘭拉普蘭

Описание: The population is sparse in Lapland, which allows me to stay alone and enjoy the spaciousness space in the wilderness. In Lapland, you can plan a long trip and try to survive in the wild, or you can just have a nice cup of coffee in the forest nearby the city center and then go back. After acquiring the knowledge of sustainability from the Laplander, I often take a short trip alone in my leisure time. It takes about 10 minutes from my student apartment to Ounasvaara by bicycle. The weather is nice, and I travel to the mountain and look for a place to stay with nature. I see a place where is suited to take a rest, and there are no people around. Due to snow are everywhere, I make a rest area with my snow shovel. Then, I was looking for a dead tree and took its branches as fuel. The Sami people traditionally use a Finnish Lapland leuku, suited for light chopping tasks such as cutting small trees and bush clearing. After collecting the fuels, I start to assemble the Happy Stove, produced by a Finnish brand, Savotta, which is safer to make a small fire for cooking food and keeping warm in the forest. The personal stove is lightweight, handy to carry. This is an interesting product to me because the personal stove somehow reflects the general hobby of Finnish people. The boiled snow can drink here, which can not be seen in other places where the environment is not well protected, which shows the relationship between humans and nature is mutual. Staying with nature and snow, enjoy the prepared food, and have a cup of herb tea is my favorite activity during the studying. Staying alone in the forest makes me feel free and safe.

芬蘭的拉普蘭人口稀少，這使我能獨處並享受寬敞的戶外空間。在拉普蘭，您可以計劃一次長途旅行並嘗試在野外生存，又或者只是在市中心附近的森林裡喝杯咖啡然後返回。從拉普蘭人那裡獲得了可持續發展的知識後，我經常在閒暇時間獨自進行短途旅行。從我的學生宿舍騎自行車到 Ounasvaara 大約需要 10 分鐘。當天氣晴朗，就到山上找個地方感受自然。我看到一個適合休息的地方，周圍沒有人。由於到處都被雪覆蓋，我用雪鏟挖出一個休息區。然後，尋找一棵枯樹，並以它的樹枝為燃料。薩米人傳統上使用芬蘭拉普蘭 leuku，適用於輕型砍伐任務，例如砍伐小樹、清除灌木叢。收集完燃料後，我開始組裝”快樂柴爐”，這種個人柴爐是由芬蘭品牌Savotta生產，能安全的在森林裡生小火做飯取暖。個人爐子重量輕，攜帶方便。這對我來說是一個有趣的產品，因為個人爐子在某種程度上反映了芬蘭人的休閒嗜好。煮沸的雪可以在這裡喝，這在其他環境沒有很好被保護的地區是看不到的，由此可見人與自然的關係是相互的。親近自然，親近雪，享受準備好的食物然後喝杯花草茶，是我在拉普蘭學習期間最喜歡的活動。一個人呆在森林裡使我感到自由和安全。
