2024-02-24 by Lindsay Nieminen

Lindsay and Markus in Akova Gear

Once you have tried premium ski gear, you will never buy anything else. Let me tell you why. My kids have skied in Costco snowsuits, as well as more expensive gear bought from sports stores. But now that they have worn Akova ski gear, I will not put them in anything else. Imagine still being […]

About the Author

Lindsay Nieminen author of Carpe Diem OUR way

Lindsay Nieminen

I help families travel boldly.

Whether that’s exploring Jordan’s epic sights, road-tripping through Central America, or finding adventure here at home in Canada, I believe kids don’t hold you back — they give you a better reason to go.

I specialize in:

  • Adventure travel with kids
  • Travel to misunderstood destinations
  • Realistic family itineraries for kids of all ages

When I’m not traveling, I’m likely driving someone to practice or running a food tour company in Amman.

Welcome to Carpe Diem OUR Way — where we seize the day as a family because time is not promised.
