Sailing – with Shelties

We are Lumi and Saana — and we spend our summers sailing around the Baltic. Typically weeks — sometimes even months in a row.

We come from the same lot which makes as sisters (or twins, if you like).

Lumi means “Snow” in Finnish and Saana refers to a mountain up north. And if you need a rule as how to tell the diffe­rence between us, Lumi has this white collar around her.

Kaho is a Hawaiian word we use referring to the person(s) with whom we sail.

It means “guardian” or “primary caretaker” or “protector” – as both we and our Kahos are of the opinion that dogs are not “owned” but equal compa­nions. The term implies a deep, spiritual connection and respon­si­bility for something or someone precious, rather than simple ownership.

This page is under constuction. Eventually it will lead to other pages featuring our trips and adventures both at sea or while camping.

Presently I am building a short list of stories below this page.
