The gods have been smiling on Lapland with perfect conditions for a 6km walk in the forest to see frozen waterfalls yesterday, the snow was FINALLY deep enough for snowmobiling today, and the northern lights even made a brief appearance tonight. I have had such a great time in Finland so far, it might even be nudging its way to the top of my list of favourite countries. Highly recommend the guides at Nordic Unique Travels, they are the best. My lovely tour buddies on this adventure trip are Joanne and Justin, who are from Queensland in Australia but now live in Vienna (Austria). They bought an apartment there several years ago as an investment, and after retiring from their jobs they now live there permanently. They are now professional travelers, with a base in central Europe that allows them to explore the world, and the cost of living is much cheaper. It is always good to meet kindred spirits and it has been a lot of fun sharing this trip with them 🙂
