Hi, I’m Sindre! I thought I’d do a little introduction for those who don’t know me yet. If you sum up my first slide, you’ll see that I’m a Norwegian, drone-flying tennis player who loves to travel. I started my Instagram journey 10 years ago. At the time, I was living in 🇺🇸, but home in 🇳🇴 for the summer. During a tennis match, I broke my foot — and suddenly needed a new hobby. My mom introduced me to photography and Instagram, and the rest is history. Let’s just say Instagram has changed a lot over the years — and so has my photography and videography. I’ve improved a lot, but still have a long way to go. One of the best parts is getting inspired by so many of you talented people out there. Finding my niche has been one of my biggest struggles. I love landscapes. I love drone footage. I love traveling. I even love sharing travel tips and Instagram hacks. Sometimes I feel like I don’t fit into just one genre. Anyone else feel the same? If you made it this far, I’m seriously impressed! My goal here is simple: connect with as many awesome people as possible. I’m so happy you’re here. Let me know — how long have we been following each other, or are you new here? ❤️

⁣ Located in East Finland, 3.5 hours from their capital Helsinki, you will find the stunning Hotel & Spa Resort Järvisydän in the middle of the Finnish woods. In a very secluded environment you can enjoy a weekend relaxing at the hotel itself, at one of their scenery suites or in one of the very cool looking houseboats. What is so interesting about the spa area is is that it is filled with fresh water from Lake Saimaa, and it is heated by geothermal and solar energy. All the wood and stonework around are made of logs that they find at the bottom of the lake combined with natural stone. No doubt that the spa area was my favorite! Let me know in the comments section which one was your favorite🤩⁣ ⁣ 1: The spa area⁣ 2: Houseboats at night⁣ 3: Relaxing in front of the fireplace in our scenery suite⁣ 4: Tour through the scenery suite where we lived ⁣ 5: Beautiful rustic decor at the hotel⁣ 6: Outside the restaurant/lobby area at night ⁣ 7: Infinity pool right outside the spa area⁣ 8: Drone view of the spa, lake, and the cute little heart-shaped island⁣ 9: Love the rustic charm at this place ⁣ 10: Breakfast buffet ⁣ ⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ ⁣ #järvisydän #jarvisydan #saimaamoments #glorioushotels - @glorioushotels #boss_hotels - @boss_hotels #living_hotels - @living_hotels #tasteinhotels - @tasteinhotels #UncommonHotels - @uncommonhotels #SuperHotels - @super.hotels #discover_hotels - @discover.hotels #ExquisiteHotels - @exquisite_hotels @beautifulhotels #ig_hotels - @ig_hotels - @bestresortsintheworld - @hotel.temptations @luxuryworldtraveler @alldreamhotels @elegant.stays

Bled has been sitting on my bucket list for years, and Bled and its surrounding area certainly did not disappoint. These are some of my first moments from the trip 👇 1. Jamnik Church - one of the most iconic viewpoints in Slovenia, perfectly placed on a hill with the Julian Alps in the background. Unreal at sunrise or sunset. 2. Vršič Pass - Slovenia’s highest mountain pass, packed with dramatic hairpin turns and insane views all the way through Triglav National Park. 3. Hiking back from Vintgar Gorge - we didn’t plan this part, but the light cutting through the trees made it one of those unexpected moments you don’t forget. 4. Ojstrica Viewpoint - the classic view of Lake Bled and the famous Bled Island. Short hike, but 100% worth it. 5. Lake Bohinj - just 30 minutes from Bled, less crowded and just as beautiful. 6. In the middle of the woods - end of April is the perfect time for hiking in Slovenia. It’s warm, without being too HOT. This is just the beginning… more coming soon. Which photo did you like the most? #slovenia #vacations

At first glance it’s just rocks. But this place has been shaped by ice, wind and waves for over 10,000 years 🌊 Mølen is Norway’s largest pebble beach, built by the last Ice Age! Look closer and it gets even crazier: 230 ancient stone cairns from the Iron Age, lined up like silent watchtowers along the coast 🪨 More than 100 different types of rock beneath your feet. And one of the most important bird migration spots in the country. Save this for your next trip to Norway 📍 #mittnorge #dreamchasersnorway #visitnorway

Who doesn’t love a good plot twist? Because Norway always has one more. And it’s usually the best part. 🇳🇴 #visitnorway #ilovenorway #mittnorge #travelocity #travelgram

When winter is at its coldest in Norway, I look back to a couple of my favorite Santorini photos. Pink sunsets, wildflowers clinging to the cliffs, and that endless blue stretching all the way to the horizon. Santorini has this quiet magic where even the smallest details feel cinematic. From coastal paths lined with flowers to soft golden light over the Aegean Sea, it is the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave. Cold days are temporary. Santorini memories are not. 🌅🌸 Would you rather be here right now? #santorini #greekislands

What you don’t see: numb toes. What you do see: the Northern Lights over Tromsø. Fair trade. #visitnorway #auroraborealis #nightskyphotography

Step back in time… and into Norway’s wooden wonders. 🪵✨ Uvdal Stave Church is a beautifully preserved medieval wooden church, showcasing intricate carvings and centuries of Norwegian craftsmanship. Built in the 12th century, it’s a true testament to Norway’s architectural heritage. 🪵✨ Would you explore this historic gem and wander through its stories? 🏰💛 Special thanks to @viewoftheviking 📍Uvdal, Norway 🇳🇴
