FINLAND

Our Finnish expedition plunged us into a realm of serene Nordic beauty and exhilarating Arctic adventures. Helsinki greeted us with its elegant design, maritime spirit, and a quiet sophistication that belied its vibrant cultural scene. Our journey then ventured deep into the pristine, snow-laden landscapes of Rovaniemi, Lapland, a true winter wonderland, where we literally touched the Arctic Circle, a memorable geographic milestone. Here, the magic of the season enveloped us as we visited the enchanting Christmas Village, a place where festive dreams truly come alive. A truly unique experience awaited us at the Arctic Snow Hotel in Sinettä, where we even indulged in the novelty of a snow sauna. Further north, amidst the hushed, frozen wilderness, at a husky farm in Pello, we experienced the sheer thrill of a husky ride, gliding effortlessly across the snow, followed by an adrenaline-fueled snowmobile ride, carving paths through the Arctic expanse. This immersion into Finland's captivating duality, from urban charm to untamed frozen wilderness, left us with an unforgettable sense of wonder and exhilaration.
