Adventures in LAPLAND!

In dicember 2019 I spent two winter months living in an amazing and quite remote little town of the northern Finland called Saariselka. 

In this page you’ll find guide and tips from my 2 months-long living experience in the amazing winter wonderland of the FINNISH LAPLAND

Hello!

I’m Marta, just a little broken backpacker in love with travelling in my very own way.
Whether it means work or volunteer abroad, randomly invite myself to a birthday party improvising new language skills, or make friends at the local food market asking for cooking lessons, ending up staying with them for a the rest of my trip.

In this big world there’s more to EXPLORE than just places to take off from the bucket list.

My happiness is talking with everyone I meet, truly experience the food, transports, houses, traditions and way of living, taking funny pictures everywhere and creating real friendships with the locals. 

My goal now is being able to share crazy stories about little big Adventures, and tips to live amazing experiences even with a low budget.
