Hi there!

I’m Finnish native, adventure-loving storyteller, the face behind Nordic Diaries. Besides travelling and writing, my passions lie in nature and outdoor sports.

I love an easygoing lifestyle, sea breeze in my hair and long walks in a forest, and I would never say no to an açai bowl.

Trust is only built by time. . . Reindeers and local culture go hand in hand here in the North, as their history is inseparable. We visited local reindeer herders to learn more about these beautiful animals and the culture of Sami people. @jaakkolareindeerfarm provided us an insight to their lives and some tricks for handling reindeers. I will leave lassoing the reindeers for the pros though and just happily enjoy a sleigh ride once the snow comes. . Have you ever met reindeers?

Let the autumn come, I'm ready ♥️🍁 . . What is your favorite thing about autum?

And into the forest I go, to seek answers and nurture my soul. . . If you know anything about me by now, you must know how much I love nature. This place is dear to me and I've walked among these trees since I was a child. Being here fills my heart with peace as this stream fills the lake, where our countryside cottage is by. This year the water runs low and the wild blueberry harvest was poor, but the forest seems well. I almost stepped on a bear poo on the way, maybe he ate all the berries... . . What is your childhood happy place? . . ________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com ________________________

Let's steal another day together 🌬️ ☀️ . Does anyone else feel like the summer has gone? I could have used some more sun into my August, but current mood is more like tea, candles and woolen socks! How's the weather in your part of the world? . . ________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com ________________________

Forest therapy 🌲🎒 . Trying to make the best out of these two weeks before the semester starts. How has your August begun? . . ________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com ________________________ . . #girlswhohike #momentsofmine #mountaingirl #sheisthewild #foresttherapy #nordiclandscape #exploretocreate #artofvisuals #folktravel #100syytä #nordicdiaries #trekremedy #trekkinglife #naturephotography #naturaleza #roamtheplanet #momentsofmine

Escape to the sea 🌊 . With views like these, and the waves gently rocking the kayak, I feel my batteries charging fast. I need more sunny days like these, when I completely loose the track of time, and simply enjoy the present 💙 Not long anymore, before the new semester starts! . . What is the highlight of your week? . . ________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com ________________________

In the rainforest 🌿 . Summer is on but I'm dreaming of a tropical escape. It's been too long since the last time in South America. We moved to Europe last year for studying, but I can't help to find myself yearning for another long adventure. You know that feeling of freedom when world is full of possibilities ✨ . Where would you want to travel next? . . Check out the latest post from a beautiful old colonial town of Tiradentes in Brazil.

Going to a forest is like going home 🌿✨ . . I'm starting my week as you should not, by escaping my responsibilities and pushing my deadlines 🙄 How do you deal with days when you're lacking motivation? Share me your best tips! 😘 . . . _________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com _________________________ . . #stayandwander #wanderlust #theoutbound #mountaingirl #goneoutdoors #folktravel #travelwithme #sheisthewild #100syytä #lifeofadventure #moodygrams #forest #goplayoutside #nationalpark #trek #trekking

Looking for my spirit animal 🐾 . . What animal you would like to see in the wild?🦁🐬🦄? . . Seeing wildlife ranks always high on my favorite travel memories. Unfortunately this time we didn't bump into the locals 🐻. . If I could decide, next animal I would like to see in the nature 🌿, wild n free 🌪️ , would be some of the local predators here, a bear, wolf, lynx or a wolverine. Which one you would pick? 🐺 . . _________________________ www.nordic-diaries.com _________________________
