Dear Mirav,

Working by your side has shown me a mirror in which I can see myself greater. Because you don’t just believe in me — you reflect me in my own greatness — and that, Mirav, is a gift very few possess.

Every step we take together feels like a new doorway opening. And what I cherish most is your ability to celebrate every victory, no matter how small or grand. Your joy in acknowledging each milestone uplifts me, grounds me, and reminds me that success can also be tender.

Thank you for your faith in me, for your loving and professional dedication, and for that unique way you work — intense, passionate, deeply committed, yet always with your heart wide open.

At Lighten Up North,

it’s all about first-class hospitality and haute-couture mushing! From the moment we arrived until the day we left, we were truly pampered and gently guided with patience, generosity, and serenity as we discovered the wonders of Lapland. Everything was done with great respect for the animals, in complete safety, and with a contagious passion for this beautiful activity. Rachel’s energy, combined with Marc’s commitment and kindness, made this interlude absolutely mysigt.

With Rachel, Marc, and their wonderful team, our winter holiday in Swedish Lapland was far more than a stay—it was a waking dream.

Welcomed with warmth and kindness from the very first moment, their smiles and thoughtful attention made us feel at home in the heart of this Nordic paradise. This holiday was much more than a simple trip: every detail, every smile, every moment spent with Rachel and Marc reflected their generosity and passion. Thank you to them for making our dreams come true and for giving us a stay that was as wonderful as it was magical. We leave with hearts full of unforgettable memories and just one desire: to return.

— Rachel & Didier
