点评:Our time with Arctic Stories was one of the absolute highlights of our trip.
By chance, we met Juhán earlier in the day at Stoorstålka, the shop he runs with his father (also highly recommended). Later that evening, we were lucky enough to join him around the fire for this unforgettable experience.
Juhán welcomed us with such warmth and friendliness. He’s a gifted storyteller and was fantastic with the kids: kind, engaging, and clearly passionate about sharing his culture. Sitting around the fire, listening to him joiking, telling stories and playing “guess the joik,” felt like an incredible privilege.
We left feeling like we’d been given a real glimpse into Sámi life, its deep traditions, connection to the land and the ongoing challenges the community faces today. Sharing coffee and reindeer meat by the fire, and simply being welcomed so openly, was moving and memorable.
Every time we see glittering mountains now, we’ll think of Ramsu’s bank and smile.
Highly, highly recommended!
翻译:在北极故事的时光绝对是我们旅程中最精彩的部分之一。
那天早些时候,我们偶然在Stoorstålka遇到了Juhán,那是他和父亲一起经营的商店(强烈推荐)。那天晚上晚些时候,我们很幸运地和他一起围坐在篝火旁,度过了一段难忘的时光。
Juhán热情友好地欢迎了我们。他是一位天才的故事讲述者,对孩子们也特别好:善良、热情,而且显然对分享他的文化充满热情。围坐在篝火旁,听他讲故事、玩“猜笑话”游戏,感觉是一种莫大的荣幸。
离开时,我们感觉自己仿佛真正地了解了萨米人的生活,了解了他们深厚的传统、与土地的联系以及这个群体如今面临的持续挑战。在篝火旁分享咖啡和驯鹿肉,仅仅是受到如此热情的欢迎,就令人感动不已,难以忘怀。
现在,每当我们看到闪闪发光的山峰,我们都会想起Ramsu的银行,脸上露出了笑容。
强烈推荐!
