About the Author
I’m Sara - I live in the Finnish countryside with my husband, Max, and our three young children, Ebba, Ragnar, and Idun. As an epidemiologist, biostatistician, and bioinformaticist by training, my experiences with my own health and especially the health of my children have led me to profoundly appreciate alternative ways of living to support our wellbeing. I have discovered that more traditional practices, from herbalism to clothing design, hold significant merit in our modern world. Here I write about nutrition, birth, the microbiome, strategies for plastic free living, regenerative gardening, food preservation, and other topics close to my heart in my quest to build a healthful and balanced life.
