OUR PHILOSOPHY

We have more than 20 years of experience as an outdoor journalist, photographer, and guide.  We have always spent a lot of time in the nature being part of the nature and having a big respect for the nature. We live from the nature and do the work by nature’s terms.

We are responsible and reliable. We are passionate about arctic nature, huskies, adventures, and wellness.

We are a family of four, and we have done together with our children wilderness hiking trips since when they were babies. We know how to look after the little ones so that the trip is an unforgettable experience for them.

We live in a lovely old country house by a lake Sierijärvi and we get to experience nature’s presence every single day. We haven’t build things for the companies need but renovated the old buildings with traditional style.

Our yard is part of the biodiversity with nature style garden with all the insects with their own hotels. We have built bird houses to our yard but also to the forest – and we are so happy having Willow Tilt groups visiting us. We have bought forest to protect it from cutting down and there we have mires that we want to renovate to natural shape. We work together with our lake community to clean up the lake. We have been together getting out of it ten thousands of kilos small rough fish and we can see how it has changed the quality of the water. We do waste sorting and waste minimization and we have sorting and recycling points in our home.

With us you will hear stories about our real life about the love and respect of the nature and the our dear huskies. We have been in different medias telling stories about our life style – you can find us for example Apple- Tv Reluctant Travel part 1.

Before we have travelled around the world, and on our own trips it has always been important to create genuine connections with people. During every trip nature and its uniqueness has been essential. We also want to share this experience with you.

We love the quietness of moving by your own feet when we go for the hikes or with the dog sleds. We avoid unnecessary use of motor vehicles.

Being and moving in nature; spending time with friendly huskies; as well as yoga, meditation, and breathing exercises; provide a framework for a great life. To top it all off you can enjoy the sauna, swimming, and nourishing food. We want to offer these things to you, our guest.

Ou our yoga retreats and hiking yoga trips we are moving in the protected areas like national parks and wilderness areas. Which is why we have an agreement with Metsähallitus’ nature services on the possible use of routes and rest areas. We don’t leave no trace behind and we pick up all the trashes on our way – also the others. We also instruct our guests to act responsibly in the nature. We tell about reindeers, wild life and sami life.

Our home is in Sierijärvi and we co-operate with other family travel companies in the region.
