T1： Read for the details carefully.
Para 1：
I wake up to the sound of the wind buffeting the cloth of the tent. Even though the sun was brightly shining, telling whether it is morning or night is impossible. I'm above the Arctic Circle, where in summer the sun never set. Checking my watch, I see that it is 7:30 a.m. I leave my tent and walk to the mountain edge. Spreading out before me, branches of the Rapa River flow through the valley below. I'm in the remote far north of Sweden in the Sarek National Park , a place with no roads or town.

Para 2：
Sarek's mountains used to be covered by vast sheets of ice. Around 9,000 years, this ice melted, leaving behind about 100 glaciers. Soon after, reindeer began to arrive. Following reindeer were the Sami people, who made this territory their homes. Getting here is difficult. so apart from the Sami very few people have ever seen Sarek. In 1909, Sarek was made a national park in order to keep the land in its natural state. Though the Sami are allowed to continue their traditional way of life in the park, no one else can live here and all new development is banned within park boundaries. At the far side of the valley, an ancient Sami cottage is visible. Close by, there are a few reindeer feeding on grass.

Para 3：
For hundreds of years, looking after reindeer was a way of life for the Sami. They used the reindeer's meet for food, the bones for tools, and their skins for making clothes and tents. Since the reindeer were always on the move, the Sami would pick up their tents and accompany them. Today, most Sami have houses in villages near Sarek and live a modern life just like neighbours. But every spring, a small number of Sami still follow their reindeer into the valleys of Sarek, living in tents or old cottages and enjoying their traditions. I'm not a Sami, but in Sarek I've adopted some of their habits. For example, this morning my breakfast is flat bread warmed over a fire, dried reindeer meat, and sweet and sour berries that I found growing near my tent.

After breakfast, I pack my bag and set out again. Since I must carry all of my food and supplies with me, my bag weighs about 30 kilograms. If today is anything like yesterday, it is full of sweat and hard work as I walk over this difficult land to my destination on the other side of valley. However, I cannot complain. Being such a beautiful and wild place makes me be blessed to be alive. Here I am, alone this broad sky, breathing the fresh air, and enjoying this great adventure. What could be better
