NORDIC DIARIES
Follow your own path.
Hi, My name is Elina!
I’m a Finnish native, adventure loving storyteller, the face behind Nordic Diaries. Besides traveling and writing, my another passions lie in nature and outdoor sports.
I love an easygoing lifestyle, seabreeze in my hair and long walks in a forest, and I would never say no to a fresh coconut water.

Summer on my mind 🌞 #tb
.
The autumn back in the North was brutal. I was buried with school work and struggled with the darkness after getting used to the warm South American climate for last two winters. But now the sun is back in the sky here in #finland and I'm ready for the upcoming year! Can't wait what all it will bring!
.
Do you have any great plans for the year 2019?

Which one matters more, the journey or the destination?
.
I spent four days to walk to Aguas Calientes to reach Machu Picchu on the 5th. Over the mountains and through the jungle. Machu Picchu is magical but I think the journey made it a memory to treasure for a lifetime.

When the adventure calls.
.
This is me, in Patagonia. Sitting behind a stranger's pickup car, not knowing where I'm going to. All my belongings in a backpack but feeling richer than a king. Look at this, how could one not feel fortuned, with a freedom like this?

Where the old meets new.

World is in constant change. We can't change the rotation of the world or the setting of the sun. But what we can change is where we develop from here and how we preserve this planet of ours 💚🌎🌌

Mongolia on horseback.
.
One of my lifelong travel dreams was to go to Mongolia. It was everything what I expected and even more. We rode the stubborn, fluffy half wild ponies, stayed with a local family and slept in a ger. We experienced such hospitality I will cherish forever. We were invited in and offered horsemilk on every ger we stopped by. We were laughing together without a common language. Different cultures makes our planet so much richer. And in the end, we are all just humans, so let's just act like that towards each other.

Who could say no to cycling through the famous wine region, in Mendoza, western Argentina. From a winery to another, tasting some the best wines the country has to offer.
