Back in February, I landed in a small snow-covered airport in the middle of Finnish Lapland, zipped my marshmallow down jacket up to face and prepared to embraced the cold for the next two weeks.
I’ve always had a particular image of myself in the Arctic. Windswept tundras, snow as far as the eye can see, and me, ice crusted on my beard (non-existent in real-life), bundled up in reindeer pelts, Call of the Wild-style, gliding silently across a frozen landscape behind my pack of huskies.
The Aurora Borealis or “Northern Lights” is one of nature’s most spectacular way of revealing itself and if it’s on your bucket list, you’re in luck.
