02.08.2020  - Northern Norway

Long time no write. I really should write more stories here but I just haven't found the time and/or inspiration lately. A week ago we came back from a two-week road trip in northern Norway. The Norwegian weather proved to be worth its reputation as we got to enjoy everything from blasting heat to pouring rain. The unstable weather "forced" us to drive a bit more than we would liked: over 5000km in total but I guess it was worth it.

We drove from Espoo to Lahti to Jyväskylä to Oulu to Kilpisjärvi to Lofoten to Andenes to Senja to Varanger to Inari to Rovaniemi and back to Espoo. Lofoten was just as popular among tourists as I had feared but still worth a visit because of the magnificent landscape. My number one tip for Lofoten would be to visit the small separate island of Værøy because it would seem most tourists with their mobile homes don't bother going there. The island feels almost magical and in such pristine condition as well. Besides Lofoten Varanger was my favorite place of the trip. Pristine nature and very unique landscape!
