Welcome!!!

 

is located far above the Arctic Circle in Norwegian Lapland in the small municipality of Kåfjord (Gaivuona).  Originally moving from Alaska in 1975 to Finland, we moved to Norway in 2002.

 

 

We live in an old house near the village of Olderdalen 

and are looking for a place nearby to keep a few sheep

and ducks to train herding with our aussies.

 

Olderdalen is 2 hours from Tromsø, a city known as ”Paris of the North”

and 120 kilometers from the Finnish border at Kilpisjärvi.

Our home looks out over Lyngen Fjord and its magnificent “Lyngen Alps”.

 

 

Thousands of sheep roam the area freely in the summertime.

 

 

Many of the people living in Kåfjord are of Sámi background.

 

The Sámi, earlier known as Lapps, are Europe’s Indigenous People.

 

Each July a large international indigenous people’s festival is held

 

nearby  in Manndalen. (For information:  www.riddu.com )

                                                  

                                                                            

We keep a boat in the harbour and spend many happy days just fishing and enjoying the sea.  We look forward to many years of exploring the region’s many breathtakingly beautiful places.

 

As far as we are concerned, we have come to paradise, both for ourselves and for our aussies.
