Who is the girl behind the blog?

Hi, I’m Saana, adventurous traveller and dream hunter from Finland!

Adventurous travel blogger Saana hiking on a glacier in Swedish Lapland Running after dreams has been throwing me from one place to another for years. It has made me leave the things and people I love behind and move abroad – three times. It has pushed me into troubles, but also into amazing adventures. It has made me consider giving up, but time after time lifted me back on my feet. Why all this effort? Because I have been looking for an answer to the eternal question: what do I want to do with my life?

One dream is following another, but there is always one dream that takes precedence over all the others. My biggest dream has just recently come true. In September 2015, I started my own business, Sandria, and I am now working as a travel and content writer full-time.

Live now – dream later travel blog was born in 2014 when I was pursuing my dreams, this time in Germany, where I was working within PR for trivago for six months. This travel blog is a perfect place for all fellow dreamers, nature lovers and travel enthusiasts to share their hopes, experiences, travel stories and tips from all over the world.

I’m a curious and spontaneous traveller who hates big planning and enjoys nature, even in a city. When I’m not abroad, I’m showing you the best of beautiful Finland. My heart lies in the archipelago of Satakunta and Rauma area on the South-West Coast of Finland.

The main purpose of this travel blog is to encourage other dreamers to give it a shot, to reach their dreams and goals in life instead of being satisfied with dreaming only. You’re never too old to make your dreams come true!

Are you looking for a Finnish content writer or are you interested in blog co-operation? In that case, this is the page you are looking for!

Hi Saana, I like your blog and your lifestyle. I see that you did some kiteboarding! I am a windsurfer and love stand-up paddling! I didn’t start these until age 50! Look forward to reading more!

  Hi Terri, thanks for your lovely comment. I’m glad to hear you like my blog! 🙂 I haven’t yet tried stand-up paddling but I definitely will, one day. And will definitely tell about it here once I do! 😉 Thanks for following.

I followed a link over here from Body Transformations and am glad I did. I love the idea of the blog and am a fellow adventure seeker who agrees that we need to seize the day and live the dream where ever possible. My adventures are on a smaller scale these days as I went and had 4 kids which is an adventure all on its own! I’m currently training for an adventurethon and am trying to make the most of all the adventures on my backdoor. Will enjoy following your blog!

  Thanks for following my blog, especially because it helped me to find yours! 🙂 And thanks your lovely comment. The great thing is, you don’t always need to travel far to find an adventure. Sometimes it really is waiting for you on your backdoor, right? 😀 I’m very curious to know what is adventurethon… sounds amazing. I will have a good look on your blog!

I’ve always felt there has to be more than life than what we hear growing up. I was raised being told – you go to school, work, get married, have kids. That never felt right. They are good values but they don’t fit everyone. Keep on dreaming and I will keep dreaming with you. One day they will come true and don’t be disappointed if they don’t. Maybe it means a secret dream that you didn’t think of yet will come true 🙂

  Thanks for your comment, especially cause it helped me to find your blog! 🙂 I love spooky stuff, and at least one of my trips this year will include a night in a haunted hotel! But back to your comment, I couldn’t agree more. If something doesn’t feel right, you shouldn’t do it only cause you’re expected to do it. It’s about our lives, and we’re in charge! 🙂

    Haunted hotel! That’s sounds fun. We’d like to try that too. I can’t wait to see your post when you go. I wanna hear all about it.

    I saw your post about Paris Catacombs. I can’t believe you actually went there! That would be so cool. I’ve just heard so many curious people never came out… So good that you are safe! 😉
