Overview
Take a trip to The Arctic Circle your Finland Vacation
An Arctic adventure in Finland is concentrated in its northernmost region, Finnish Lapland, most of which lies above the Arctic Circle. Home to more reindeer than people, Lapland's untouched beauty and clean air is not a surprise. It is home to the only Indigenous people in the EU, the Sami, and is the unofficial headquarters of Santa Claus.Â
Lapland is a top destination for winter activities and Aurora Borealis hunting. You can watch the Midnight Sun in summer and say goodbye to the sun for an entire day in the winter. Visit Rovaniemi, the home of Santa Claus and a hub for snow-tastic activities, settle into warm igloos or log cabins in Kemi, Yllas, Vuollikka, or Saariselka, and enjoy husky sledding, snowmobiling, mountain biking, or wilderness hiking depending on season. The best time to visit Finnish Lapland is from September to March or April. The most convenient and affordable way to get to Finnish Lapland is by taking a flight into Rovaniemi.

You should try a Zen meditation session. Imagine slipping into a silk kimono for the day—carefully tied by an expert dresser, every fold precise, every colour chosen to suit the season. It’s a ritual that feels as personal as it is timeless.
What do I love about Japan? In a word - EVERYTHING. The incredible contrast that Japan offers - new/innovative vs old/traditional, the warm and welcoming people, the incredible rich culture, the culinary wonders awaiting around every corner, the cleanliness, efficiency and safety. It's one of the best places to visit in Asia in my opinion.
Pub Street in Siem Reap, Cambodia, is a local favourite with very inexpensive drinks. It's also a great place to try the local delicacy, BBQ frog.
I love how laidback and relaxed Laos is compared to other countries in Southeast Asia. It's like the best of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Thailand all rolled into one, and then sent back in time 20 to 30 years.
The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
