A family of tourists from Norway has been visiting the north of Yakutia for several months already. Despite the small age of the sons, they move between the settlements of the Arctic Circle on bicycles.
A young family with two children in April flew to the village of Sakkyryr Even-Bytantaisky ulus. The main purpose of their trip was to live the life of local reindeer herders. Successfully having implemented the plan, having talked to the northern inhabitants, the spouses from Norway decided to keep their way to the polar Verkhoyane.
Now their task is to get to know the life and life of the horse breeder, to see the Yakut breed of Yakut horses. Even in Yakutsk the family planned a bicycle trip. Bought for themselves and their sons a two-wheeled transport. From Sakkyryr to Batagai, everyone on their bike started off.

Overseas guests in Verkhoyan was sheltered in her apartment by a village teacher Nina Bozhedonova. “The name of the couple is Johan and Kim. Both of them are medical workers. With guests I talk with the help of a “translator” of a cell phone, pens with a sheet (explained by pictures) and gestures. Nothing, understand each other with a half-word. Yes, and Johan rather tolerably speaks Russian, “- says Nina.
Norwegian tourists drove three days on bicycles to Batagaya. Since the children are small, after traveling 10 km, they stopped for the night. They carry the tent, sleeping bags and provisions. Family is accustomed to taiga life. When the small was three years old, they toured the whole of Mongolia by bicycles. Johan was in Argentina, Nepal, Iceland, on Elbrus. Sometimes I took my children and my wife with me. A little rest from the trip to Yakutia, the father of the family is going to leave with friends to conquer the mountain peaks in the next country.
They are not afraid of wild animals, but they have a special gas cylinder ready for self-defense. By the way, on the way they saw a bear.
In the Archy village of Borulakh village, Verkhoyansky district, the public did organize a meeting with the Norwegian family. At the school, International Children’s Day was organized by competitions in national sports. Boys from Norway are very fond of such competitions as kyly, tutum ergiyar and mas-wrestling.
Yesterday the family, having agreed with the escort, went on foot to the “Baahtaah” site, which is located 8 km from Borulakh village. A brigade of horse breeders is based there. Then, after a little stay in Borulakh, the guests from overseas will fly back to Yakutsk and from there – home.
