We have this saying in Finnish, heittää talviturkki pois, which roughly translates to throw away your winter fur. It means to go swimming for the first time after the winter, and I threw mine away today!
I googled and the water temperature in the lake was about 15 degrees Celsius, air temp hovering around 28 degrees. It was soooo hot today, that I really needed to go swimming, and boy did it feel great! After I whined at the knee deep water for 5 minutes before plunging in.
I got chills just looking at this! haha I hate cold water and usually just jump right in if I need to lol <3
Im always a jump right in guy, cant stand wading in slowly.
Its refreshing just cannonball it bellyflop or whateve!!🤠
I can’t do it, I’m such a pussy!
We have about 2 weeks of winter. It’s a shock when we travel to places with seasons.

Hahaha yeah you don’t get to throw away your winter fur, you don’t have one!
Oh, so the weather seems to be quite nice in Finland at the moment.
