Simone
Simone (1970) came to Eräkeskus in 2003 to live a dream, a life in nature, working with dogs and being self-employed. What started with 35 dogs long ago, is now a well running company with around 85 dogs, a team of 6 - 9 workers and happy clients in winter as well as in summer. She got infected by the Scandinavia-virus in 1978 and had her first contact with sleddogs in 1992.
Simone was working for many years in the tourism industry and studied animal psychology besides.
Today she is taking care of the administration, loves to work in the kennels, helps wherever help is needed and is out on tour with guests during several weeks in both seasons.
Anne

Hello, I'm Anne (1999) from Northern Saxony, Germany.
I'm a trained pastry chef, but it was time for me to swap the bakery for work in the fresh air. That's why I came to Eräkeskus with my fiancé Julian.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city and into the Finnish forests, our time here will be both a break and an adventure.
I'm really looking forward to the educational work with the dogs and a great team.
Julian

Hello, I'm Julian (born 1996) and I'm from Lower Franconia. I came here to Eräkeskus with Anne, my future wife.
Since it's always been a dream of mine to travel to Finland and I've loved dogs since I was a child, I thought it was time to combine the two.
I love spending time in nature hiking or simply relaxing around a campfire and enjoying good company.
I'm looking forward to spending an unforgettable time with the team, dogs, and guests.
Lena

Hi, I'm Lena (born 1988) and I've lived near Cologne for the past few years. After a long trip around the world a few years ago, I never fully returned to my old office job. Instead, I completed some further training in wilderness education and the outdoor field and love being outdoors (and in Scandinavia).
I spent the last winter season working at another Finnish husky farm, which I enjoyed so much that I've now signed up with Eräkeskus for the summer. I'm looking forward to spending lots of time outdoors with great dogs and people.
