There is an Easter Craftalong and a Halloween Craftalong Halloween - to - Easter is basically the period in the NL when the weather is gloomy. Well, in a bad year like 2024, it’s bad weather all year long, but normally you can see some sun in summer!
It’s of course a lot less dark in the NL than it is in Sweden (I’ve visited Sweden and studied in Finland) but what I like about the nordic countries is that it can get cold or snowy, but it feels less grey and gloomy. We mostly get a lot of rain and fog and occasionally icy roads, lots of wind and rain which means you feel colder than it actually is. We used to have more real winter, now we just seem to have 9 months of autumn and a few months of heat. In December it was just so cloudy and foggy I didn’t see the sun for weeks. But I’ve not spent that much time in the nordic countries, maybe I was lucky and always had really nice weather, even if the days are a bit short.
