Olo’s Unique Approach

Empathic Ecology

“The experience of paddling around the beautiful lakes that I grew up by, accompanied by a guide who is truly present and listens to you was memorable and is going to stay with me forever.”
— Eero

Experience the opportunity to unite your body, mind, and spirit through a guided journey of self-exploration and sensory-based practices that explore the edges between your inner nature and the outer world. By fully engaging with the wild or semi-wild environment, we begin to feel a deep sense of connection with nature and see reflections of our inner life everywhere.

Tuure Manninen is a wilderness guide specialized in ecopsychology. The nature experiences he facilitates range from rejuvenating workshops in the nearby forest to multi-week expeditions across the Nordics. The wide range of experiences all circulate around three fundamental aims: empowering the individual, building union within groups and deepening our connection to nature.

Tuure studied at the Finnish wilderness guide school - Outdoor Academy, working to deepen his understanding of nature, being human and the relationship of the two.
