- The main reason I quit my job and moved out into the forest was because I wanted to be in control over my own time. To do what I want, when I want. This adventure is a perfect example of that, Christine and I are leaving our cabin in the middle of a normal week to travel 10 hours north to go on the most adventures experience we have ever been a part of. A happy life is not found, It's created.

This is not only the most epic adventure we've ever been on, but it's also the biggest video project I've ever edited. I took me many many weeks to finalize this video, so if you liked it, I would be so happy if you could share it with someone 😊❤

Your content creation and work ethic comes through Kalle all the hours you put in were worth it!! So thank you!!
This is nearly a movie length, I cannot even imagine the effort it took to film and edit this! It was so beautiful to see. Thank you!
Amazing journey. Thank you for bringing us along.
Kalle, I literally could not wait to grab a drink and see this new video you made. What a great adventure! I remember taking a canoe out on a 3-day trip down the Colorado River here in the states, and I could feel your excitement and understand that "high" you were on the whole time. Thanks for sharing this!
What a journey. So cool to see three of my most favorite Swedisch vloggers in one video 🤩 Thank you for making us part of this adventure.
I am so proud of Christine. What an incredible woman she is.
❤‼️❤️‼️❤️‼️❤️
My favourite moment was definitely seeing you both cuddle the huskies. It was so obvious that the dogs love it. There's been criticism about sledding dogs in competitions but this video really showed me how much these dogs love it and are cared for. Some really beautiful moments between animals and humans, and also you two sharing a challenging experience together! Also loved some of the music choices!
Happy o hear you noticed our care and love for our dogs, Dani! ❤🐾 /Stina & Matti
@@medusaslair I'm not disregarding that competitive dog sledding is awful. I was merely saying it was clear that these dogs (in this video) which are not competitive sledders were enjoying cuddles and having fun. And if you saw at the start of this video the dogs were in a large outdoor pen. I'm sure not all dogs used for tourism live in the same conditions...
I feel like I just watched a Netflix documentary & there should be credits at the end for a whole production & editing team! It’s absolutely amazing that you made this by yourself, at the same time as going on the actual journey. Just phenomenal! 💛
Wow, thank you so much Cheryl ❤️ you have no idea how happy your comment made me! Thank you! 😍❤️
Hi I'm from the USA and I totally agree!!!!💖😍💖⭐⭐
same thoughts :) you could sell it or something Kale ;)
I agree, that is wow how good filmed and edited!
Amazing story. Great drone footage and perfect choice of music to support the mood. I feel like I've been on an incredible journey. Heja Kalle!
That means a lot to hear, thank you ❤ It actually several days to find all the "correct" music tracks! And some of the drone shots have been filmed by Matti as well 😊
yes :) the music is sublime for this video. Perfect choise :)
It was super nice to see this video. Nice to see everything from your point of view. It was also lovely to be out with you on the trail. We had a nice time with very interesting talks out there. I hope we can make it again soon.
...and thanks for recommending our youtube channel.
See you!
/ Matti (and Stina) and the dogs
I'm so happy you guys liked the video 🥰 Yeah, we can't wait to come back again! ❤
Matti is so hilarious! I enjoyed watching your sled adventure a lot. And well done to Kristine - you can be proud of yourself!
Haha yes he's the best 😂❤️
That's was incredible journey! Thank you Kalle for sharing your emotions and feelings with us! And of course amazing views up there! Very appreciated! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
I did not want it to end either. I cried many times while watching, with JOY. The feeling of freedom; miraculous nature; being led by the lovely dogs.... I hope I can be there some day. Thank you so much for sharing this jurney. What a wonderful experience.

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch it Laura 🥰❤
@@KalleFlodinit was a pleasure. I’ve shared it also ⭐️❤️
Masterpiece! Thanks for virtually taking me to my happy place - the snowy Fjäll, many fond memories of ski touring coming to mind ❤
what an amazing video, Kalle 😍❤️ I am deeply touched. Thank you for making such a beautiful video and letting us be part of it. When Christine was just about to start and she said she is so nervous now, I could really feel with her and I got goosebumps all over my body when the dogs started to run. 😮 amazing work, Kalle! You captured it so well and with the perfect music and stuff, so one could really dive into the video and feel all the emotions! 👏🏻 and Matti has such a cool personality! 🙂
What a awesome adventure you two had!!!
Thank you for sharing just gorgeous.
M. From Texas ❤
Wow, what a journey this must have been! This looks just incredible! It was really inspiring to watch Christine master her fears and to also hear Matti's perspective. Kalle, I think this is one of your best videos. Will watch it again on a big screen. And I moved this kind of adventure waaaayyy up on my bucket list. Thank you so much for taking us viewers along on this journey! 🌲💚
Oh wow what amazing footage, you are very talented. What an experience! How beautiful and strong are those huskies, I love all the cuddles and attention you gave them. ❤ Christine you did an amazing job, my heart was in my mouth just watching and goosebumps everywhere. Thank you Kalle for sharing…..epic! 🤍❄️
Hi Kalle ,
I like your videos. You are so caring and loving person. They way you love dogs are so beautiful to see that how gently and lovingly we can connect with all life form 😊.
Wonderful.
Thanks for making such beautiful content with so much love and effort 🙏
So many good vibes and stunning views in this video ! I felt like I was watching a movie. It was challenging, intense, but you did it 💪 . A perfect example of how to get out of your comfort zone. Thank you for sharing this adventure with us !
I aspire to live a life like this.
Hope you get there one day soon ❤
yes me too!!
I was over come with emotion of the journey you took. And the dogs. Super heroes. Thank-you for sharing this amazing experience .
HI Kalle and Christine, THANK YOU for sharing this exciting Arctic trip with the sled dogs! The scenery is unbelievably beautiful!!! WOW! AND The Northern Lights!!! What a fulfilling vacation!
Absolutely amazing and beautiful. Thank you for sharing your adventure!
The northern lights looked like an angel kissing the atmosphere!
The dogs love you. I understand😊💕 Still also for the dogs it's hard work. Years ago I followed my dream of mushing a sledge with dogs...in Sarkimukka Sweden☺. I still today remember the names of my furry team: Tilly, Tweety, Viper, Kasik. There I saw that it is also very hard work for the dogs. Especially for the older ones. And I witnessed how the dogs are opportunists. When they get the chance, they want to be with you under your blanket, warm and safe😉. Beautiful video again!
What a wonderfull film🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I would not want to do this, but watching this is really cool! Thanks so much for sharing this extraordinary experience.
Kalle & Christine....What an amazing trip . Your filming is majestic.
Well done .🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I feel like I've just watched a nice movie! Thank you Kalle!!! 😊😊😊👍👍👍👍
Thank you Krassi 😍❤️
Wow, what a great and wonderful journey. Great filming and editing. Could have watched for hours👍❤️ Than you for evety minute you invested and shared with that film
🙋🏼♀️🇨🇭
That was awesome 👌 what a great video guys 👍thanks for sharing 🙏 Paul 🇬🇧
My dream, and a life goal to live in the forest like you one day. It's like looking at an older version of myself somehow or a big brother that I never had
Great job Kalle - beautiful video and story telling!
Christine- you did it! You are so inspiring to all us ladies 😊
What an amazing adventure, filmed in such a great, cinematic and storytelling way. I felt all the emotions and struggles, and elation! Great video, Kalle! Thanks so much for sharing!
Great video and edit!!!bBeautiful snow landscape!!
Beautiful ... simply beautiful ..
Wow that was incredible and the dogs were so gorgeous. I cant believe you had a Border Collier leading the pack I never thought that breed would be able to thrive there, I thought it would only be huskies. Both of you did amazing and shouldnt ever doubt your abilities from now on. Matti was amazing and the dogs all had such wonderful personalities.
Annie, our border collies is not really leading the teams but running in front of just for fun. She doesn't have the thick, double coated fur as a husky and always sleeps in the tent or in the cabins. Happy you liked the video. Later on we will release Mattis version of the trip on our channel, so keep an eye 😉. /Matti & Stina
Wow! you are really reaching next level with your videos Kalle, such top quality, I feel like I am watching a big budget production. What a journey you made, that must have been an amazing experience, really enjoyed this video, I followed Matti & Stina as well what a great guy to have with you on such a journey. 😀
Hi Kalle and Christine from Northeast Georgia USA, We are followers of your channel and wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed this video. The raw beauty of nature, the excitement and adventure that this video presents was fantastic. The drone footage, the music, the cinematography and those beautiful sled dogs was captivating. The honesty and emotions from you Kalle, Christine and Matti were heartwarming. Thank you for your hard work. We are aware of how difficult it is to create this content, (masterpiece).
Gosh this film is beyond amazing! It should be a film for the Cinema. Thank you so much for taking us on your journey! Realy loved it!
Beautiful video 🥰,, thank you very much 🙏❤
This is such an amazing adventure, incredible and brave, thanks for sharing 🤗
this is one of the most beautiful and inspiring videos ive seen. thank you so much for sharing!
This is a MA-STERPIECE ! I got so many goosebumps. The music choices and assembly...Wow I think it's the best you've offered us so far.
And big congrats to Christine for being such an amazing and strong woman. Also can we notice the added-value of Matti's participation in the filming and talking ?! That is just a stunning piece of work, thanks for taking us into this journey.
Just incredible. All your films are incredible and insightful but this film is truly your best yet. It's amazing. The music the composition. The moments of knowledge , the moments of reality from yourself and Christine. You have a chance to watch a video and have a chance to say this is possible, I want this, I can do that too. I have had this only once before where I ended up on an island in Norway. I know I will visit this location . And evenmore so because of this video. You capture every essence of this 4 day trip in a real and raw way. Incredibly greatful for this content
Wonderful! You did a beautiful job capturing this experience. Loved it 🫶✌️
Haha I think that Christine is sitll such a city girl! Love her! 🥰
What an honor to learn about your adventure and to watch such beautiful footage. Strong work on all of your parts. WITH TREMENDOUS GRATITUDE FOR SHARING THIS.
Proud of Christine she gives all us girly girls. Hope that we can do things we didn’t think we could beautiful journey.
Would love to hear more of Christine's perspective!
This is an amazing video Kalle. 😊 Also cuteness overload. 😄 If you have enough footage of the dogs, you should definitely do some short ASMR video of these cute fluffy paws 💙😄.
So so good Kalle. Thank you for bringing this too us
This adventure was stunning-- epic drone shots and music! I was totally along for the ride and empathically blown away by the beauty of nature and by the irrepressible spirit and energy of the huskies. Everyone's personality shone and the group narrative flow added a great through line. It's really true, adventures and extremes push us to grow beyond our edges, internal and external. What a ride! PS I have a new husky family so will be practicing sledding for the first time this coming winter-- can't wait! We'll see how my video skills progress to be able to craft our experience. Your memorable journey is an inspiration. Thank You.
You guys are just incredible! 🤗
"A happy life is not found, It's created" Well said. I absolutely agree with your statement. Thank you for your effort, and dedication to creating this video. I trust you both had a magical and unforgettable experience. :) Btw, these dogs are adorable.
wow amazing!!! perfect wild adventure ! and dogs are so cutte
WOW!! What an amazing video (editing, music, etc.) of an epic journey. Thank you so much for taking us along,
Thank you so much for watching it 🥰
Hei Kalle! Thanks for a really nice video. 50min (!) of wonderful footage in harsh conditions. It was fun to join you on this different kind of journey throught highs and lows. Take care! from Norway.
It's the most beautiful video I've ever seen on TH-cam. ❤ Congrats !! This trip is magical, I would love to make it one day too... thank's for sharing this adventure with us.
Love from France
OMG, I just cried in the middle of the video! At that moment I felt like I was there and I reeeeeeally didn`t want to go back.
Last autumn I had an unforgettable experience of almost being lost in the woods. I was in the mountain forest with my friends, it wasn`t high in the mountains, and it`s generally much warmer here, so there was no snow and relatively warm. So I went for a walk alone, I didn`t plan it to be long, so there was no flashlight with me, no matches, nothing. So I walked up to the mountain, and then to the higher mountain, and from there I saw a really nice looking little mountain in the direction about 45 degrees from where my camp was. So I decided to go there and from the top of that mountain straight across the wood towards my camp. Not the smartest decision when the evening is coming, but there I was. On my way I saw roedeers and realized that it`s much wilder part of the forest. So when I finally entered the forest it started to getting dark, but I obviously had no other choice, going back the same way would take me most of the night. I`m good with the directions, and everything was quite well until I stumbled upon the creek that I thought was the creek running near my camp, but that was actually the other one. So that creek took me off the way. So when I found out, that at some point I started walking the opposite direction I`m supposed to, then I realized that something went wrong:) And it was already dark! So I checked my location at my phone, realized that I fucked up, and continued. The phone was discharging really quickly by flashlights, middle of the forest, no matches, no people around, wild animals may appear... I started thinking that I might really spend the night in the woods if I will not be able to find the way back until the phone shuts down. I wasn`t afraid of the actual idea, but perspective of being cold and therefore no sleeping, as well as wild animals around - this really made me nervous.
So everything ended well eventually - I crossed a stream, saw a rare species of blue slims, climbed a very steep hill (I was shocked when I saw it in a daylight, I would never think somebody actually could climb at that angle, but I was already in total panic at that point) and came to my camp with 1% phone charge (real miracle).
And the point of this whole story is - I felt SO alive! So strong and powerful, my friend in the camp said that she never saw me so vigorous and excited (and she knows me for a long time). It`s amazing when you feel you can do something really important, you can manage yourself in the woods alone, you can climb that impossible hill, then you can PHYSICALLY feel you`re capable of overcoming this challenge. And this video made me feel the same feeling. Beaty, and struggles, and overcoming challenges, and feeling alive. I miss it.
This was so great to watch! Thank you so much, Kalle! And Christine is my Shero! So brave to push herself through all of this!
Incredible footage, courage and environment. Christine is a true champion!!! Kudos to all of you.
That was unbelievable…. Thank you so so much for sharing that experience with us.😮
Amazing adventure Kalle and Christine. Thank you for sharing your fantastic experience out in the wild with those wonderful dogs.
Epic. Phenomenal. And so proud of you, Christine! 💜💪🙌💜🌸

Epic journey! Superb video! Bravo, grand trio and the adorable dogs!
Wow!!! What an amazing video! Trip of a lifetime! You and Christine are such an inspiration! Thanks for sharing such an incredibly beautiful video!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
WOW what a journey. An incredible experience for you both and thank you for sharing. Incredible footage that made me quite emotional. I visited Norway last year and tried husky sledding, in the summer. Since then i have been talking non stop about doing this and its on my manifest board. xx
That was absolutely stunning footage just wow 😊❤
Thank you Kimberley 🥰❤
Wow, fantastic!
What an incredible experience! Thank you for sharing. This brough me to tears.
A beautiful film!! 🌲
This has got to be my favourite yet and have watched it 3 times as there's just something incredibly soothing about the snow and animals.I live in Australia but was truly blessed and will never forget our Arctic experience sledding with the huskies in Tromso and Kirkenes.I do remember the headaches though one day even whist wearing sunglasses from the snow and know you can experience snowblindness in the Arctic due to the reflection of the sun onto the snow.x
Thank you for sharing your journey! I love Christine when she is so tired, she just giggles and eats chocolate. Haha! Way to go to both of you!
Haha yes she has figured out what life is really about 😉❤️
I can see how happy you are and it makes me smile…makes me happy too. I actually had tears of joy for you. Thank you for sharing…I hope to one day be able to experience joy like this.
Wow ❤ stunning 🤩!And how nice are those dogs, it’s impressive how much they love the snow ❄️ and to cuddle!
What a wonderful, lifetime experience!!! I so enjoyed ALL!! Thank you for sharing this experience!! I am sure your dogs were happy to see you too.
Finished watching this incredible journey so beautiful, salute to sheddogs👏amazing❤ thanks Kalle and Tine❤❤❤
Outstanding
Mind blowing
Peace 🎉🎉🎉
Fantastic.
Brilliant filmmaking and storytelling! Thank you!
Very special installment! Thank you for sharing it.
What an inspiring and spectacular adventure! And so beautifully captured! 😊 Greetings from Värmland, Sweden.
Thank you so much Maria 🥰❤
Absolute beautifully captured, I could really feel the rollercoaster of being loaded with this scenery, the physical activity, the gratitude to the dogs and all that crazy logistic with food, clothing, camping gear... WOW! Tack for this high quality documentary, the effort must have been insane!
Absolutely amazing…fantastic photography of unbelievable scenery!!!
An experience of a lifetime,for sure!!
Well done!!😊
Thank you so much for showing us this extraordinary experience!
Captured well, you being almost in chock of awe in the Sarek-valley and probably no words or emotions to describe that moment,
to have the northern-light as well... magic! Remember that you are immortal and there is no fear after such experience
I know this feeling to a degree, walking across the north of England a few times. You meet yourself in an elemental way, face every emotion, every physical obstacle. Well done you two! .
Beautiful landscape, beautiful adventure. I'm so glad you Kalle and Christine got to go on an wonderful adventure. Everything looks soooo breathtaking.
Amazing, just amazing. Much love
What a thrill. Thank you for taking us along. Gorgeous video footage.
That was an amazing journey and such a privilege to take part in it from my safe little cabin - while it’s spring and easy living here right now seeing this actually made me long for those harsh Nordic winters again 🌬❄️. I think you did such a good job of telling the story as well, really took us with you and I felt so immersed into your trip - definitely something I would like to see more, although I sympathise that behind these fifty minutes of video are weeks of not months of planning and probably the same putting it all together afterwards! So thank you again, and well done to you both ! 😁👍✨
Like travelling myself... Thanks....
Wow this was really special Kalle & Cristine! The production was excellent Kalle, a beautiful documentary showcasing your skills as a videographer 🤍 Such breathtaking views you shared with us of your incredible journey! Xx
OMG! That was incredible! What an adventure!
