 Today we had first presentation. Jurij and I made a presentation of saunas. We had stage fright, so we were making mistakes at pronunciation, but we did all tasks before presentation (Quiz, links,…). Now I'll tell you something about saunas. Sauna is a small room or hut heated to around 80 degrees Celsius. Sauna room is very hot, so you start sweating, if you are in sauna. If you go to sauna you'll come out relaxed and stronger.  We know minimum 4 Types of saunas: Smoke sauna, Wood stove sauna, Electric sauna and Infrared sauna. Sweating is good because it helps to body clean. Here is picture of finish wood stove sauna. Every second or third Finn have own sauna.
