Traditional sami occupations are hunting, fishing, farming, and reindeer herding, though only a minority of today's sami make a living from these activities alone, and virtually none live in a natural economy nor have a nomadic lifestyle. Sweden's indigenous people, the sámi, have their own cultural heritage, language, flag and parliament Approximately 10,000 sámi live in finland The sámi homeland comprises the municipalities of enontekiö, inari and utsjoki as well as the northern part of the municipality of sodankylä, i.e The area of the reindeer herding cooperative of lapland However, more than 60% of sámi live outside the sámi homeland.
We the sámi people want to advise visitors about how to act and how to behave when visiting our home We, the sámi people, have occupied and lived in these areas for thousands of years.
