This project was a culmination of ideas, and something of a multi-media ambition. It began as an editorial pitch to online magazine Mpora. The idea was to further our interest in bushcraft to encompass the ancient joys of canoeing in a country perfectly suited to woodland skills and slow travel.
With both Mpora and Visit Sweden on board, it was a natural step to approach Fjällräven; Scandinavia's premier exponent of immersion in nature.
The final element of the project was Gokotta Film. Long-time friend and some-time collaborator Benn Berkeley joined the project in order to shoot the film elements, and the content circle was completed. Words, film and photography now published at Mpora.
