"Visit Kotka
The Finnish sea coast town called "eagle" Kotka in South-East Finland, is very impressive, at least at first glance. See https://www.visitkotkahamina.fi/en/places/park-tour-in-kotka/

An old song A rose of Kotka, tells of darkening August evenings, still on the more light summer side of the year.
" A rose of Kotka (town called Eagle)
It's evening,
stars get lighted to shine,
dark water splashes as waves to the wharfs.
Once again song waits in the harbour for the wanderer, night time's joys wait, and a boy waits for someone who would take him.
Come along, the stars start to glimmer.
Come along, the played music wakes to thunder loud. Once again singing is heard loudly, wine glasses full of bubbles. Once again a rose of Kotka waits for someobe to pick her.
Who would come with me to dance? I guess a moment's comfort for sorrow from a glass is allowed? If I decide I want to give you my love, you can own the rose of Kotka for a while.
Tonight, luck will favour the brave ones, tonight love will give it's glow, tonight charm lips, give their hottest. He/she, Kotka's rose will start to flower.
One cannot avoid one's fate, not even the bravest ones. You are my fate, you boy of the distant lands. Come along, there is a dance in the bar! Come along, boy, to the harbour of Kotka!"

This does not connect especially with Kotka, but if someone would like this kinds of charm, but does not have much life of her/his own, would they like to try
* white water canoeing (it is dangerous)?
* Or a, maybe quite short, if so it is nice and wished for beforehand, walk in the forest and sit on a fire in a fireplace with trees around and salmon food getting fried by the fire?
* A milder, less dangerous than white water canoeing, version would be to paddle a canoe along the rocky shores with trees, grasses and other nature, too, and just watch the scenery, enjoy the experience, for example on a lake. See https://learntalents.blogspot.com/2023/12/skiing-in-forest.html
* " 30th of May 2024 Come to think of it, my father had a nice way of skiing in the forests in the winter, resembling some Eino Leino's poems, but I guess such is some traditional wisdom and he had good skills of recreation outdoors in the winter.
"I ski the snow covers leisurely slowly, (just a few steps, then stopping for a moment to look at the landscape, the snowy beauty of trees etc, gliding down a slight hill, a few steps and looking around, maybe changing route,...)
Wind tosses snow.
Mostly it is as if travelling against the wind and not so much like being carried along the wind.

* And my books in my blog https://miraclelikenature.blogspot.com/2024/04/magnifient-views.html
* Music, sports hobby and (maybe buying) clothes fitted to free time
* Maybe studying on some free time courses some languages that make interesting charming foreign cultures possible in your life.
