Where Gastronomy meets Adventure: Meet Helene

Unconventional yet deeply rooted in Norwegian traditions, I have built a life around food, travel, and adventure. As a trained sommelier with experience running my own restaurant and launching different food concepts, my expertise in gastronomy is unmatched.

A true adventurer at heart, I have backpacked solo around the world, immersing myself in new cultures, languages, and perspectives. With an intimate knowledge of Norway—growing up in both Oslo and Rondane National Park and skiing through all of Norway´s national parks as a child—I curate tailored travel experiences beyond the ordinary.

My itineraries highlight destinations untouched by social media, offering an authentic take on Norway’s rich heritage, dramatic landscapes, and culinary traditions.

From stargazing under the Northern Lights to sleeping under the midnight sun on Unstad Beach in Lofoten, one of my favorite ways to explore Norway is by placing a mattress in the back of my car, sleeping under the open sky, and waking up to stunning landscapes. I am a true sunseeker.
