I am an outdoor enthusiast with a passion for endurance sports and activities. My roots have grown across Western Uusimaa, Lapland, and most recently, Kainuu. I live in the Helsinki metropolitan area, but spend a great deal of time in Vuokatti, where I enjoy the Kainuu region's stunning landscapes, peaceful atmosphere, and outstanding opportunities for outdoor activities.

Maps have always been a passion of mine, and from my base in Vuokatti I explore the most appealing trails, wilderness areas, and destinations across Kainuu. Along the way, I share glimpses of these experiences, inspiring scenery, and route recommendations on my Instagram account, @kainuunpolut.

My basecamp for discovering the best outdoor destinations in southern Kainuu is Vuokatti Basecamp (vuokattibasecamp.fi) – a high-quality accommodation designed for outdoor enthusiasts, located in the heart of Vuokatti and surrounded by the tranquility of a pine forest.
