It is believed that Santa Claus' home is located in the Ear Mountains in Finland. In 1927, a Finnish radio program claimed that Santa Claus lived with 20,000 reindeer on the "Ear Mountain" in Lapland, the border between Finland and the Soviet Union, and that it was because of the "ears" that Santa Claus could hear the voices of the world's children at the North Pole. It is because of the "ears" that Santa Claus can hear all the children in the world from the North Pole. Since then, the "Ear Mountain" in the story has become Santa's hometown. Every year on Christmas Eve, children hang their stockings by the fireplace before going to bed, and then go to sleep with eager anticipation that Santa Claus will ride in a reindeer-drawn sleigh at night and distribute Christmas gifts from the fireplace chimney to the children's stockings.

Finnish people enter the door to take off their shoes, do not ask other people's privacy, don't take a bath after 8.9 pm, or make a big sound affecting other people, don't try to go to the bar, no matter where, so late to go home, open and close the door to make people hate. The first time you go to someone's home to bring a gift, the Finnish people do not pay attention to how much the gift money, you can buy some black tea from the country (black tea is more universal), and then do not bring from the country, from the local supermarket to buy a bottle of wine or coffee can be. Others will give to see their habits, meals can not be leftover, how much to eat, eat how much (water is also), and then do not taste good things, if put on their own plate, are also given to eat. It's a very polite thing to do. Independence Day: December 6 (1917)
