28-YEAR-OLD HENRIK VISKE LEFT HIS STEADY job to pursue his dream: exploring the natural wonders of his home country with Akiak, his much-loved husky.
Now self-employed, Henrik Viske has all the flexibility needed to camp under starry skies and hike extensively through Norway’s amazing landscapes with his furry companion.
Viske describes Akiak has a dog with “a nose for adventure”. Indeed, the beloved pet seems to enjoy every minute of their new lifestyle.
