Lola Akinmade Åkerström

How does a culture exist for thousands of years while simultaneously conserving the environment? Lola Akinmade Åkerström heads to northern Sweden to find out.

“You need warmer clothes,” Nils tells me at our very first meeting.

I’ve just landed roughly 150 kilometers inside the Arctic Circle during the darkest time of winter. My destination is the small village of Jukkasjärvi, roughly 20 kilometers east of Kiruna, Sweden’s northernmost town.

Nils Torbjörn Nutti is one of over 100,000 indigenous Sámi (over a quarter of which live in Sweden) who live in northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Kola peninsula of Russia in a region collectively known as Sápmi.

He’s a reindeer herder in Saarivuoma sameby. Sameby means ‘Sámi village’ and denotes a reindeer-herding community. Nils also runs Nutti Sámi Siida, a company which organizes experiences that bring travelers closer to his reindeer and culture on their own terms.

I head towards his storage facility to pick up thick overalls, boots, caps and gloves. Compared to this new get-up, my own winter gear seemed more like beachwear. I press on towards the reindeer lodge, which is walking distance from the banks of frozen River Torne.

RELATED: Husky sledding … in Australia?

Before veering towards the lodge, three teams of huskies pulling one-man sleds race by in front of me. The low sun is toying with the landscape, splashing crisp, densely-packed snow with golden light. Snow-covered pine trees shimmer and bask in the sun’s warm glow. But it remains bitingly cold.

This is Swedish Lapland at its most beautiful.

The curious animals are inching closer to me. Each has its own personality, and sports uniquely shaped antlers. Every part of the animal is used—meat for food, fur for clothes, antlers for tools and craft. But when it comes to herding, the reindeer actually herd the Nutti family, not the other way around.

Over an Arctic dinner of chanterelle mushroom soup, reindeer steak marinated in wild blueberries, and root vegetables roasted in reindeer fat, I learn that herders follow the natural migration paths of the reindeer because the herd has a much closer instinctual relationship with nature than man.

The next day, I meet up with Nils and his brother Per Anders Nutti, and we head over to the reindeer corral where Jakob is lassoing and catching a few bulls—male reindeer—to work our sleds that morning. We each pick a wrangled bull, which are typically stronger than their female counterparts, making them perfect sled partners.

Henrik Nutti, Nils and Pers’ father, had used reindeer sleds for transportation long before snowmobiles were introduced to the region. So the brothers had repaired his old harnesses, learned the skills themselves, and trained their reindeer to pull sleds.

Per Anders briefs me on how to respect and work with the reindeer. “Don’t linger too much taking photos of their antlers, otherwise they can charge,” he warns me. “Don’t stand behind them because they can kick, and especially avoid their right back legs.”

Once briefed, the Nuttis show me how to harness them up, attach the sleds, and drive one. To man the sled, one hand should hold the wooden structure for support while your other hand holds the rope attached to the reindeer’s harness for navigation. To start the sled, you give it a manual kick-start with your leg, and you pull the rope slightly to kick-start your reindeer.

“While we don’t believe reindeer are gods, the white reindeer is considered holy because they’re very rare,” Nils explains. “About one in every 1,000 reindeer—maybe more—is white, and we usually save them, and don’t use them for meat or materials.”

The Sámi respect for nature runs deep. Over centuries, because of their nomadic lifestyles, they looked for different signs in nature to help them forecast the weather and help them navigate migration paths.

While today, it’s easy to check the weather forecast on their phones, sometimes they head into deep regions with little to no cell coverage and have to depend on their knowledge of reading signs in nature. “Just by looking at how auroras are dancing, we know what type of weather is coming so we don’t take the risk and head into the tundra or mountains because it is dangerous,” Nils adds. “For example, we can see in the northern lights if strong winds are coming tomorrow based on if they are dancing a lot across the sky with lots of shifting patterns. Sometimes you read weather signs in our reindeer as well.”

If it’s roughly minus 5-10 degrees below with cloudy overcast skies, the reindeer may not be in the mood to run or pull as hard on their sleighs—they can detect colder weather coming over the following days and want to prepare for it by conserving their energy.

“They depend on nature, so they don’t expend energy unnecessarily,” Nils notes. “It takes a lot of energy to dig up and find lichen to eat under snow in the forest.” He proceeds to explain the ecosystem of sustainability. The more male reindeer you have in a herd, the easier it is for the group. Male reindeer do most of the digging for food, so calves and their mothers can come and eat.

When we arrive back to the property, it’s to a traditional tentipi (lávvu) where Per-Anders starts roasting reindeer meat in a fat called souvas. Smoke from the fire turns blue as it rises through the tent, hitting freezing temperatures on its way out.

One of the most unappealing museums in the world has just opened in Malmö, Sweden — for members of the public who are brave enough to visit, that is.

The Disgusting Food Museum features such delicacies as bull penis (pictured above), spicy rabbit heads, mouse wine, and tomato juice with a pickled sheep’s eye.

You might remember the museum’s curator, Samuel West, from the ironically popular Museum of Failure, which is also located in Sweden.

“When I opened the Museum of Failure I was amazed at the impact it had. If a simple fun exhibit could change peoples’ attitude towards failure, what other assumptions could an exhibit change?” West wrote in a statement sent to INSIDER.

“Our current meat production is terribly environmentally unsustainable, and we urgently need to start considering alternatives. But many people are disgusted by the idea of eating insects and sceptical about lab-grown meat. … If we can change our notions of what food is disgusting or not, it could potentially help us transition to more sustainable protein sources.”

Guests who visit the exhibition can see, smell, and taste 80 different foods, which are considered a luxury in some locales and absolutely vile in others.

At least four people have been hospitalized with gunshot and stabbing wounds in the Swedish town of Helsingborg following an alleged ‘attempted murder’ which police are, for now, hesitant to definitively link to organized crime.

The incident unfolded at about 8pm just steps away from the Gustav Adolf Church in the center of the city. When police arrived at the scene they discovered four people injured.

“They had shot injuries as well as a stabbing injury,” police spokesman Fredrik Bratt told local news outlets. “They were taken to hospital in ambulance, police cars and private transport.”

Three of the males, all in their 20s, suffered serious injuries, while the fourth was slightly injured, in an incident that is, for now, being classified as an attempted murder.

The circumstances are currently being investigated. So far police have failed to detain any suspects in the case, as they continue to seek witnesses and any relevant information related to the violence that occurred.

While an increase in gang-related violence has been witnessed in recent years in Helsingborg, the police say that it is “too early” to reach conclusions about the latest case. Records released by Swedish Police in December 2017 reveal there were a total of 306 shooting incidents last year, resulting in 41 deaths. The majority of the fatal incidents occurred in the capital, Stockholm.

  • South Korea’s World Cup team responded to a Swedish spy for Sweden’s team by swapping their jerseys so it would be harder to tell them apart. 
  • Taeguk Warriors coach Shin Tae-yong told reporters Sunday “it is very difficult for Westerners to distinguish between Asians.”
  • The Swedish spy, who is a member of Sweden’s coaching staff, said he later set up a telescope and spied on the team from a local couple’s home.
  • Sweden apologized for the incident, but South Korea said it was “perfectly natural” for teams to gather information on one another.

South Korea’s World Cup team responded to spying by the Swedish team by swapping their jerseys so that Sweden couldn’t tell them apart. 

Taeguk Warriors coach Shin Tae-yong told reporters Sunday that his team swapped around their numbers after a member of Sweden’s coaching staff was caught trying to spy on their closed training session in Austria earlier this month.

  • Picking up litter while jogging in groups – known as ‘plogging’ – has become a popular pastime in Sweden.
  • One among many lifestyle fads to come out of the Nordics, plogging is now catching on in other countries across the world.
  • According to a fitness app, plogging is a more effective form of exercise than jogging.

Forget lagom or hygge, there is a new Scandinavian word to add to your vocabulary: Plogging.

Plogging essentially combines jogging with picking up trash, while turning it all into a social event. The phenomenon was born in Sweden in 2016, when groups started to form around the activity.

  • The comment comes after Trump announced new tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to the US.
  • The US is the second-largest destination for Swedish steel.

Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Löfven took issue with President Donald Trump’s new tariffs on steel and aluminum during a press conference with the US president standing just a few feet away.

“Swedish prosperity is based on corporation competitiveness and free trade and I’m convinced that increased tariffs will hurt us all in the long run,” Löfven said. “As a Swede, I of course support the efforts of the European Union to achieve trade with fewer obstacles and as few as possible.”

Don’t let the name fool you — Samuel West’s “Museum of Failure” is an act of celebration.

On June 7, West, a collector and self-described innovation researcher, debuted 51 failed products in a museum exhibition in the Swedish city of Helsingborg, all in the name of honoring the creative process.

Visitors will get reacquainted with familiar names like Betamax and Blockbuster, and perhaps meet lesser-known flops — Twitter Peek, anyone? — all of which West has been collecting for the past year.

“Even the biggest baddest most competent companies fail,” West tells Business Insider. “The trick is to create an organizational culture that accepts failure so that you can fail small … rather than failing big.”

Here’s a taste of the products that are getting a second life on display.

West says it’s been difficult trying to secure the items in his collection, given they’re all discontinued. The project is a labor of love.

Samuel West

Many of the products lasted only a few years. The smartphone and gaming device Nokia N-Gage, for instance, was on sale from 2003 to 2005.

Samuel West

Nokia released the device as a challenger to the Nintendo Game Boy, but critics quickly took issue with its odd design and button layout.

Nokia tried to upgrade with the redesigned N-Gage QD in 2004, but ultimately sold only a few million units before discontinuing the device altogether.

Even further back was the Apple Newton, which ran for a bit longer between 1993 and 1998. The poor handwriting software and high cost contributed to its demise.

Samuel West

The Newton first retailed for $ 699. Adjusting for inflation, the device would cost $ 1,178 today.

Hospitals made brief use of it in the mid-1990s, but ultimately Apple struggled to capture market share from the Palm Pilot — another digital assistant of the time.

The one saving grace: Steve Jobs later retooled Apple’s approach to personal computing to create the iPhone and iPad.

Swedes have much to feel sunny about. Real economic growth, at a heady 3.2% in 2016, has averaged 2.8% annually since 2009, compared with the euro area’s 1.1% per year. In April, Swedish inflation was close to the target of 2% aimed at by the Riksbank, Sweden’s central bank. Yet it decided not only to maintain the main policy rate at -0.50%, where it has been since February 2016, but to increase the amount of asset purchases under quantitative easing (QE) by a further SKr15bn ($ 1.7bn) during the second half of 2017.


One explanation for keeping policy so loose is that the inflation figure is deceptive. Johan Javeus of SEB, a bank, points out that some of the increase was driven by one-off factors, such as rises in air fares and energy prices. After raising rates prematurely in 2010 and 2011, the Riksbank is loth to do so again.

But also, it is hemmed in by the European Central Bank (ECB)….
