Arctic Europe

Travel Guide

During my #roadtrip through Lofoten in northern Norway I drove past this incredibly beautiful place. It's quite far south and requires a fair amount of driving to reach but I'd say that's time well spent! One could easily spend a week exploring this area and not get bored. It's also possible to sleep in such little red cabins near the water for those who want the full norwegian experience. #norway #lofoten #waterlust

We had a 10 day stay in Levi and it had got to day 8 without seeing the lights. We had just began to give up on the prospect of seeing them and thought we might as well go out for the second to last night. And there it was in all its glory. Words let alone photos can't show how beautiful this night really was. You have to go for yourself! #BvSApplication
