So it's not exactly true what I've heard from various people that "Italian winter feels colder than Finnish one because is humid, while in Finland it's dry"
No, definitely not true at all. But considering that our winter highs hover around freezing, it's just foggy and damp. But IMO the occational wind from the sea is the worst, not humidity.

Doesn't make a big difference to be honest. Jokioinen observatory is inland, has no bodies of water nearby and also averages 89%. Lahti is on a ice-age ridge, averages 87%. Sodankylä in Lapland averages 84.6%.

Pretty uniform humid in Finland.
So it is really humid like here you feel it in your bones! I LOVE it!!!
Please don 't insult me but I really like your photos hahaha! Depressing but romantic winter view!
It's beautiful when there's snow. That I don't like. It drags on for too long. No snow pictures from this winter obviously, as we didn't have any and my camera's recharger is broken.

Middle of the day, and you can see from the traffic signs and reflectors that I used the flash.

This is nicer:
Yes the last pictures are nice. Of course snow is great in winter but I love fog too.
Ioannina in winter. Fog, rain, clouds, frost and sometimes but rarely snow. Photos are not mine. They are from two of my friends
Why don't you just leave the windows open for an hour or two during the day?
I do usually have the windows open during the day in winter (unless it's cold) but it has little effect as homes in Malta are built with a single layer of limestone blocks, which absorb water. Every wall has a ventilation grill at the top too...
