Mario and I headed to Finland for a few days of fun in the Arctic snow! Finland makes country 34 worldwide for me! We would be flying to the Lapland region and staying in Rovaniemi.

I love having the opportunity to revisit cities in different seasons. I have previous visited Krakow in July, but this time I will be exploring it in December. I took an early morning flight out of Stuttgart heading towards Krakow, with a small layover in Frankfurt.

Mario and I headed to the land of the midnight sun. Norway makes country 32 worldwide. Since Norway has lots to explore, we decided to explore the lower section of Norway. We started in Oslo, with a stop in Flam and then onward to Bergen. The forecast called for rain everyday, but we lucked out and had a few nice days. We can’t always have sunny skies when traveling. I definitely plan on coming back to see more of the Norwegian country side.

As I reflect on the past year, it’s crazy to believe we spent most of it in lockdown status. Pretty much everything was closed except essential stores like groceries store and pharmacies. After this long year, things are finally opening here in Germany, which means borders are open, so we can travel again!

It has been 4 months since we went on our last adventure, which seem like forever ago. Things have somewhat calmed a bit here, so borders have reopened so we can travel within the EU.
