There are infinite ways to plan a 7 day Disney World itinerary, but in this post, I share ours from our last trip in November to give you ideas on how…

We visited in winter and loved the island’s stunning fjords, snowy mountains, golden sandy beaches, frozen lakes, and colourful fishing villages. It’s also a top spot for seeing the northern lights. It has a remote feel but is easily accessible across the bridge from Tromso Airport. We spent three nights on Kvaloya Island, but you could visit as a day trip from Tromso, either driving yourself or taking…

In this post, I share what to wear in Norway in winter (including our clothes for various activities) and our packing list for…
