Friluftsliv

A Practical Guide to Getting Outside Like You're Nordic
Friluftsliv, that famous Nordic concept of getting outside into nature.  Not so easy when you live in a city or town, when you have a life to live.  Am I right??

Nei!

I believe that you can live a Nordic life wherever you are in the world and whoever you are. 
And I am going to show you how starting with friluftsliv, the art of getting outside into nature.
  • Do you want to get outside like they do in the Nordic countries?

  • Do you wish you knew where to start?

  • Do you want a practical guide to keep you motivated and enthusiastic?

  • Would you like some tips and secrets from someone who has learnt it all from scratch?

It can be such a chore to get outside especially when the weather is cold, raining and Netflix and the sofa are calling, but I promise that you are not alone.
I was the one dreading winter and cold and the dreary days that come with it, but fear not, I am here with you and I have a solution.

Have you noticed what a difference to your state of mind just standing outside your front door can make?

Close your eyes for a moment and imagine yourself standing in a quiet forest or on the shores of a sandy beach or at the top of a mountain.  Just you and nature and the wide sky.

Simply imagining it brings you to a new place, brings a level of calm, slows your breathing.  So imagine how it would be if you took those outside into nature everyday (well, let's start with every few days.  This is the gentle approach.  There are no regimental sergeant majors here!)

I want to learn to live more Nordicly for just 199nok.

You don't need to struggle on this alone.  I can help!
I invite you for a peek into my life and the skills, techniques and knowledge I have gained living in Norway that have helped me (and three kids of varying ages) to truly embrace friluftsliv with Nordic authenticity.

"But Fiona, Scandinavians have grown up with friluftsliv.  It's in their blood"

Yes you're right, but that passion and love of the outdoors and nature can be learnt.  I wasn't born in Scandinavia; I am English.  I was born and raised in southern England.  A far cry from the wild forest, fjords and mountains of Norway.  Yet I have learnt to love friluftsliv like I am Nordic. 
I have lived in Norway for 7 years, been back and forth for much longer but what I will always carry with me wherever I chose to live is the Nordic love of friluftsliv.

It's become part of my soul and it will never leave

I want to share that passion with you.  I want to show you how you too can have that rare and precious love of all things outdoors.  How to be ready and excited to get outdoors regardless of what the weather throws at us; how to find friluftsliv in the unexpected places and how to embrace it all like you are Nordic.
