Kungsleden 2021

Time to head north

I was born in Finland and spent most summers at my grandma’s up north, cherishing the never-setting sun, soft light, colorful lakes, and simple food. This summer, with family business in Finland and Norway, I decided to hike Sweden’s “Kungsleden,” a 480 km trail along the Norway border. Expecting mosquitoes, but the mostly flat trail winds through stunning valleys with expansive views. It’ll take about 15 days, a much-needed escape from a year at my desk.
