How seasons change our adventures; adapting gear and routines
It feels like only yesterday we had endless light...
#Tongue Out Tuesday (28)
Hello friends! I hope you're all well and enjoying your summer. Any dogs getting doggy ice cream? We're mostly cooling down by jumping in the lake- well, Oona and Mogwai do. It has never been hot enough for Lizzie to seek anything else but a short snooze...
We’re finally ready for summer!
The weather report promises rain and barely 17*C, but summer is a feeling, right? Despite hot days and bright light, that summer feeling didn't land here for the last few weeks. Instead, we went through all the worries and stress that come with an unexpected rollercoaster...
Midsommar greetings
Happy Midsommar/Midsummer! Will you be celebrating the summer equinox today? Eating strawberries and making flower crowns? My favorite things to do on Midsummer's Eve are: taking photos of the dogs + lupines, going out with kayaks and paddleboards to explore the lakes, and then having some tasty...
Lego printmaking
I had a fun summer side quest in mind, but as Mogwai was recovering from thyroid surgery and it was raining again, I sat down at the kitchen table and started experimenting with Lego printmaking. The plan: Create a design with Lego dots or tiles on...

Mud-ventures
Spring arrives late here up north. For a while, the changing seasons are just winter with more light, but slowly, as the snow disappears, the earth comes back to life. We’ll spot the first snowdrops and colorful crocuses, but in the next few weeks, there is...
In between winter and spring
We're longing for warmer days, for feeling the sunlight and eating ice cream. But at the same time, this is such an incredible time for long hikes and exploring. The cold days between winter and the start of a real spring, we love them! The snow on...
#TongueOutTuesday (14)
Some cold air is still floating around, and the wind can still bite our noses, but the snow is definitely melting fast! We've been hanging out in the sun and shoveling fresh snow in the same week. Well,...
No one left behind!
Some dogs don’t care about rainy weather or even love going for a mud bath. Some jump in puddles and roll around in wet grass. Lizzie isn’t one of them. On the contrary. Lizzie is a 100% sun-adoring creature with a strong opinion about cold, wet, and gloomy...
