Everyone can enjoy camping; all you need to do is discover an opening! 

Join us for a relaxing camping vacation to re-energize your inner self. Certain aspects of any journey will remain the same - you'll need to eat, sleep, and play at all times. Isn't it simple enough? It is, but it can quickly become an intimidating process with a long shopping list and a great deal of unnecessary tension. 

We'd like to take you camping and provide you with a fun and relaxing tenting experience. We'll teach you the fundamentals of camping and offer you hands-on experience with the many types of gear you'll find in your local outdoor store. 

In the evening, once our tents are put up, we'll stop to watch the sunset, have a BBQ, and discuss various camping and sustainability topics while outside. It's time to keep our eyes open for the local fauna (whitetail deer, foxes, moose, & many birds). We'll later build a campfire together (along with some woodworking!). It's a fantastic opportunity to discuss the fire safety and how to build a fire. We'll combine some Canadian camping traditions with marshmallow roasting! After all, why not, right? 

It'll be time to go to bed after we've enjoyed our food and campfire stories. We will start preparing breakfast at 8 a.m. in the morning. We'll gather our belongings, dismantle the tent, and return to civilization after breakfast.

The magnificent Porkkala peninsula will be the setting for this evening cruise. It's a protected coastal region 50 minutes from Helsinki that makes for ideal camping grounds. We will have the opportunity to both explore nature and learn about the basics of camping in this area, which is known for its stunning coastline and animals. 

This overnight trip in the archipelago, surrounded by natural treasures and immensely diverse environments, will leave you eager to rediscover your passion for the outdoors.
