About Me

CURRENT MISSION
I am not able to accept accommodation requests that are more than two weeks away. I barely know what I'm doing tomorrow let alone in two weeks.

I am a recovering nomad currently in the midst of settling in Rovaniemi the capital of Finnish Lapland. While being pleasantly stuck in Australia during covid I developed a primal longing for crispy snow filled winters and up on my return to Europe I found myself disappointed in Estonian winters and I ended up in Rovaniemi. I absolutely fell in love with the powerful nature and the calm people that such environment produces. I worked in the winter tourism for 2 seasons and noticed that young travellers such as myself could never afford to experience Lapland due to the extreme costs. I would love to facilitate fellow travellers to experience the beauty that got me to move here.

I also love the Finnish culture. I was born in Estonia but grew up in Helsinki and have a peculiar view of the differences of those two.

There is so much more to Lapland than santa, huskies and Northern lights!

ABOUT US
