Anticipation
When visiting an unfamiliar destination, that varies greatly from visitors’ own daily environment or comfort zone, it is advisable to anticipate some possible risks proactively before taking off. Not all tourists arriving to Sámi Homeland have the necessary background information or know-how of Arctic conditions and the living cultural landscape of the Sámi. By finding out specific information about destination’s culture, the surrounding environment and its practices as well as natural conditions before arriving in Sámi Homeland, it smoothens visitors’ time spent at the destination and makes it safer both for visitors and local communities alike. While outdoors, applying the precautionary principle is necessary as the impacts of climate change on nature in Sámi Homeland and on traditional Sámi livelihoods are difficult to predict.
