I started planning this adventure long in advance, and the first choice I had to make was about the destination. In the end, my choice fell on the Land of Vikings, since a couple of my friends suggested me to visit Norway – they recently visited this Scandinavian country and had the most positive impressions about it.
We have long known that our dependence on fossil fuels, unsustainable land use, and wasteful consumption patterns drive climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. Recently, COVID-19 has deepened our awareness of the connection between these impacts and risks to human health. Rebalancing our relationship with nature is critical to regenerating both its ecological health and our personal, social, and economic well-being. It is also critical for tourism, which relies on upon and connects us with flourishing ecosystems. Restoring nature – and our relationship with it – will be key to our sector’s recovery from the pandemic, as well as its future prosperity and resilience.
I have always dreamed of traveling to a Nordic country in winter and enjoying various exciting activities in such conditions. Yet, witnessing aurora borealis with my own eyes has always been goal number one for me. My friends suggested that Tromsø, a city in Northern Norway that is located north of the Arctic Circle, would be a perfect destination for this purpose. So, after hesitating a bit, I booked a 5-day trip to this city in the Far North, without knowing much about what to expect.

Uppsala is all about history and culture, with religion and learning at the core of its nearly 1000-year existence as a Christian center. An ancient castle overlooks the town which has 18 hours of daylight at the time of the summer solstice. With a walk along the historical buildings, a one-day trip to Uppsala is well worth as visitors get transported into a relaxed and leisurely environment.
