How Modern Nomad began

Modern Nomad is a team of seasoned adventurers. As Latvian National Guards, we’ve spent countless nights in the Baltic forests, facing all types of weather conditions. As passionate travelers, we’ve gone on expeditions to some of the world’s harshest and most remote environments, from the frozen tundras of Alaska, Siberian taiga, and Altai mountains to the scorching deserts of India and the African savannah.

And as fathers, we enjoy spending time outdoors with our families, making memories and teaching love for nature to the next generations. Our passion for adventure motivates us to create gear that’s easy-to-set-up, lightweight, and extremely durable. With years of outdoor experience, we’ve put our expertise into every product we make, rigorously testing them to ensure they can withstand the most demanding conditions, even a children’s birthday party!

Our production is proudly based in Latvia, a country recognized for its skilled craftsmanship, innovative design, and commitment to sustainability. Moreover, being close to the factories also lets us closely monitor quality and make sure everyone involved is paid fairly. Did you know, the same factory that makes our metal parts also creates the sleigh bows for Latvian Olympic Luge Champions!

So join our community, go explore, and collect those special memories beneath the sky! Whether it’s raining or you’re hiding from the sun, whether you’re hiking the woods, climbing mountains, or simply enjoying a relaxing day in the yard – trust that, with ModernNomad, you have the best equipment and support by your side.

Lets meet outdoors! 🌲🌲🌲

Events

Sea Kayaking Expedition to Irbe Lighthouse in the Baltic Sea

Promoting an active lifestyle, Modern Nomad supports a two-day sea kayaking expedition to Irbe Lighthouse in the Baltic Sea. This is the only lighthouse in the Baltic Sea that is located in open waters, 20 km away from the coast.

Such an expedition requires both participants’ professional preparation and endurance. Overcoming the distance of the sea waters and the ascent to the lighthouse, as well as launching the boat, require mountaineering skills and make this expedition even more exciting. The expedition was carried out in collaboration with Sense of Team.

In a rapidly changing world, the concept of the modern nomad takes on a new form, showcasing a lifestyle that combines adventure, exploration, and a deep connection with nature. The modern nomad ventures into the wilderness, enjoying its splendor, but seeks not only personal pleasure but also feels a profound responsibility towards the environment they encounter. This unique way of life creates a community of outdoor enthusiasts who are aware of the importance of preserving and protecting our planet – listening to the voice of nature, understanding, and acting responsibly.

We, Modern Nomad, believe that adventure in nature must go hand in hand with a strong commitment to preserving the beauty and vitality of our planet. We unite and inspire the generation of modern nomads who prioritize responsible action in nature and actively participate in conservation efforts.

The Modern Nomad promotes a lifestyle that values sustainable travel, ethical outdoor activities, and a gentle attitude towards the environment. We go hiking, camping, kayaking, and participate in and organize outdoor events. At the same time, it is our duty not to leave behind a footprint, or reduce our ecological footprint, and actively engage in initiatives that ensure the sustainability of nature.
