Inuit Cultural Educator and Northern Expedition Specialist. Nadia offers an authoritative Indigenous perspective on Arctic travel, traditional arts, and sustainable tourism in the North.
Born and raised in Nunavut, Nadia Okalik has spent 15 years working to develop sustainable Indigenous tourism models across the Canadian North. She educates visitors on the profound cultural significance of Inuit art, the realities of life in remote fly-in communities, and the etiquette required when attending cultural gatherings like Powwows or drum dances. Her expertise extends to "country food" culinary traditions and the logistics of Arctic expeditions. Nadia’s goal is to ensure that tourism dollars directly benefit local communities while correcting misconceptions about Indigenous heritage, guiding travelers toward authentic, respectful experiences.
