Pilgrimage

Why is SUOMI-FINLAND and its Finnic people the happiest?

Suomi can trace the roots of its Finnic people all the way back to a pre-human stage 130,000 years ago in its Northern Wolf Cave location followed by its isolation during the ice age up by the Arctic Sea that was kept habitable by an extension current of the warm Gulf Stream like Greenland today.

The 2017 DNA study in Nature magazine proved that the Finnic are not Europeans at all, but its own species totally, from this long isolation until its end some 18,000 years ago, when the Finnic people that moved south, can truly best be accurately described as kind pilgrims speaking as first a human language with which they conveyed a message of kindness, truth, forbearance, and sisu.

These values resulted from living in perfect eternal harmony with nature and our cosmic universe, which they had observed and brought to others with their symbols of the North Star and other cosmic bodies.

To spend time in the Arctic or Finnic nature in general has prevailed to this day with the ice plunge culture, the sauna rituals, and every year seasonal harvesting of mushrooms and berries, as well as fishing, at the still very common family summer house weekend, and summer holiday tradition.

Why is particularly Kakslauttanen Igloo Arctic Resort important for all who seek happiness to visit once at least in a lifetime in a pilgrimage?

The Kakslauttanen Artic Resort invented the Glass Igloo early in its 50-year-long history.

Its nature-loving founder Jussi EIRAMO then wanted to bring the Northern Lights and the Midnight Sun to the visitor, in a temple-like solitude ritual event, where one could worship in awe the powerful nature that we all should aim to live in perfect harmony with.

He truly was a prophet advocating for living in harmony with nature. In his vision, that would build a whole new Arctic community.

A more recent way to bring Happiness started in 2024, when the FINNIC ARCTIC HAPPINESS COLLOQUIUM (FAHC) was founded to teach visitors about Finnic Happiness.

Kakslauttanen is owned partially already by a Foundation that further intends to support disadvantaged children in the world, as well as local art like already seen in their long art in residency program, and their museum and planetarium.

What about Finnic Happiness Today?

The World Happiness Report in 2024 voted Finnic people the happiest for the 7th year in a row.

WHO of the United Nations also just deemed the air quality of the Finnic Arctic, to be the best in the world, with the lowest level of airborne particle of any individual country. It is truly a unique and exceptional almost nirvana event up in the Arctic, where Kakslauttanen has been located for more than 50 years, to sleep in clean air and see what nature has to offer.

I have been privileged to visit 186 countries in my life but there is only one place on Earth where I have heard THE SOUND of SILENCE and to me, only the Galapagos Islands where Darwin wrote his Origin of Species can compare in its uniqueness to this Arctic paradise where my ancestors lived very long ago.
