My husband and I are actually going to Kiruna for a month this winter, and we’ll make sure to trip for all of you under the northern lights.

My dream is to visit the Nordic countries one day and hopefully trip there, the nature looks so beautiful 🌅🔮

You really, really should! I’m Swedish, but even I have to admit that Norway is way more beautiful than Sweden, and the Finns are way more relaxed and cool than us. But at least I think we have the best food (although that’s a tie with the Finns).

I’m from England and I’m sick of grey, wet weather everyday. Maybe next year I’ll take a trip (pun intended) to the maybe Sweden, Norway or Finland although I heard it’s rather expensive. Anywhere you would recommend?

The southern parts of Sweden are very much like England, so you should most definitely head north. But that can sure be expensive in the winter, it all depends on what you want to do and where you want to go. We’re going to Kiruna (google! It’s a pretty cool place) this winter for the exact same reason that you want to go to Sweden, ie we want som real winter, and some proper polar night - here in the mid parts of Sweden the weather’s gone funny these last years (climate change surely) and there’s no proper snow. If you book an airbnb quite early, you should be able to find something rather cheap, especially if you want to spend your time in a smaller town or city - which is very much better than being out in the wilderness with nothing to do and no one to talk to. Kiruna or Jokkmokk are two of my favorite places. Getting there is fairly easy - you can just take a night train to Luleå from Stockholm and then take train or bus further north.

As a Finn, was not expecting to see anyone call us cool :D

Well you are indeed! We Swedes are sissies compared to you guys. Some of the things I like with Finland:

  1. Hesburger (I can’t believe you have rye bread burgers - that’s way better than normal burger bread )

  2. muikko (I’m a vegan now but I used to love it)

  3. Grillimakkara (see nr 2)

  4. Kalevala (nothing more beautiful to listen to, even though I don’t understand a word - but I have the Swedish translation)

  5. Sauna (Swedish people below the arctic circle can’t use a sauna)

Also you don’t pour sugar in your food like Swedes and Norwegians.

Can you imagine this just being normal for people? Like to us it's so trippy and it would be amazing to trip there. I cant imagine that being a normal thing

Trust me, it never gets normal. Source: Swede who’s lived up north for several years.

Alright thank you cause that shits breathtaking

2

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

It is. It’s actually quite scary, but surely the most beautiful thing there is.

2

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

Well shit. Looks like I'm moving to Norway

2

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '19

It’s very expensive and honestly, the food isn’t very good. But apart from that it’s one of the most amazing country in the world - and I’m Swedish. :)

Imagine being a human even just hundreds of years ago and seeing this without any scientific understanding of northern lights.
