Well, yes - every day I think how lucky I'm about the location and surroundings of my home. I mean, although in Finland everything is rather close to nature. But then, that also means that a lot of houses in the countryside might also be next to industry, next to a busy highway, next to a quarry, next to big open fields and only small patches of forest.

My house is on the edge of local countryside neighbourhood, so where my yard ends the woodland begins (to the other direction it is a belt of village fields and houses scattered next to the village roads). I'm especially happy about living near a lake which has small uninhabitated islands (most of the islands are privately owned and have summer cottages, which means that they aren't good for casual camping).
