8. Lapland – Above Ordinary
Lapland is spiritually, geographically and in its actions above ordinary.
Lapland is a focal point for a good life, where you may be proud of yourself, your community, your own and shared milestones in life, as well as ways of doing things.
Lapland is a safe and healthy living environment for growth and development. You can live and work in the region and be in the heart of nature at the same time. In Lapland the pieces of life fall into place.
Lapland is peaceful, a place you can always breathe in deeply and feel free from daily stress. The world is near, yet suitably far away.
