For hundreds of years,looking after reindeer was
a way of life for the Sami.They used the reindeer's
meat for food,their bones for tools,and their skin fo
making clothes and tents.Since reindeer were always
on the move,the Sami would pick up their tents and

villages near Sarek and live a modern life just like their
neighbours.But every spring.a small number of Sami
still follow their reindeer into the valleys of Sarek,living
in tents or old cottages and enjoying their traditions.I am not a Sami,but in Sarek I've adopted
some of their habits.For example this moing my breaktast is fat bread warmed over afire,dried
reindeer meat,and some sweet and sour that Ifound growing near my tent
After breakfast,I pack my bag and set out again.Since I must carry all of my food and supplies
with me,my bag weighs about 30 kilograms.If today is anything like yesterday,it will be full of
sweat and hard work as I hike over this difficult land to my destination on the other side of the
valley.However,I cannot complain.Being in such a beautiful and wild place makes me feel blessed
to be alive.Here I am,alone under this broad sky,breathing the fresh air,and enjoying this great
adventure.What could be better?
