Johanne Skrefsrud

Johanne has a deep passion for the outdoors, shaped by her upbringing in Norway with forests, mountains, and the sea right on her doorstep. Whether it’s skiing and hiking in the mountains, ice skating on frozen lakes, snorkelling in the sea, or simply enjoying the view with the wind in her hair – she believes there’s an outdoor activity for every season.

Fascinated by the complexity of nature and the powerful forces within it, Johanne developed a special love for the ocean early on. This passion led her to study ocean physics and become an oceanographer. She enjoys sharing her knowledge about the ocean system and the fascinating processes happening beneath the surface.

As a guide in the Arctic, Johanne thrives on the combination of sharing insights, working in a team, and experiencing wild nature together with people from all walks of life. There’s something about the Arctic that keeps drawing people back – for Johanne, it represents something pristine and untamed, a rare connection to the untouched that is increasingly hard to find in today's world.
