DC and I started from Santa Clause village and snowmobiled for 70 KMs with some pit stops to sled with the cutest huskies, attempted to go ice fishing on a frozen lake, bbq'ed in minus 30. DC and I also tried bear at Restaurant Nili, which tasted like kangaroo but a lot more gamey. Lastly, we headed up north for 3 hours and finally reached our igloo hotel at the Kakaslauttanen Arctic Resort. Although we didn't see strong northern lights, I highly recommend visiting Lapland in winter as I will guarantee it is an experience you will never forget. The snow covering the whole region makes you feel like you have stepped onto another planet.
Lapland, a bucket list destination, I have been lusting to visit for ages. Finally, the day came and it was like winter wonderland but in real life. Trees are literally dressed in snow from top to bottom, powder white snow everywhere and of course, it was freezing. Like try minus 26 degrees and current feels becomes minus 30... #yolo
