When sauna is a part of life

Finns think of saunas not as a luxury, but as a necessity. There are five million inhabitants and over three million saunas in Finland, an average of one per household. But how many saunas are in the universalism?

The Doomsday Seed Vault on Svalbard has over 21,500 cannabis seeds in it. That means that there are more seeds in there for weed than there are for aspargus, blueberry and raspberry, for example.

I hate saunas. Possibly because in our house the shower is inside the sauna, and it has to be heated up when spending time in there, or it'll be slimy and possibly have centipedes running about.
