Reesi

Reesi is a term that originates from the Finnish language, where it is used to refer to a small, traditional wooden house or cottage. The word "reesi" is derived from the Finnish word "reikäsi," which means "hole" or "cavity," reflecting the original design of these houses, which were often built into the side of a hill or cliff. Reesis are typically small, with a single room and a simple, rustic interior. They are often used as summer cottages or vacation homes, and are known for their cozy and intimate atmosphere. The construction of reesis is typically made from local materials such as wood, stone, and thatch, and they often feature large windows and doors that provide ample natural light and ventilation. Reesis are an important part of Finnish cultural heritage, and are often featured in traditional folk music and literature. Today, reesis can be found throughout Finland, and are popular tourist attractions, offering visitors a glimpse into the country's rural past.
