Read MoreFinally Seeing a Smidgeon of Snow in Finnish Lapland!
After a night of no Auroras, I was seriously ready to get out and about. We had initially been booked to go on a dogsledding adventure and a snowmobile expedition, but it’s kinda hard to do these things when there is a marked lack of snow! Instead, we were to go on a visit to […]

My time in Moheli ended up being completely different to what I had initially planned. I had expected to snorkel and swim, and I had also booked us in for a ‘beginners guided dive’ to give us a taste of the scuba diving experience. I had no idea that I would leave Moheli with my […]
