Senja, Norway

Senja is Norway’s second largest island, located far above the Arctic Circle. Here you are greeted by an awe-inspiring mix of sea, mountains, beaches, fishing villages and inland areas, all within a few hours drive. The Oceanside of the island is precipitous with sculptural rocks and colourful fishing villages in sheltered coves. The inland is filled with mountains, lakes and forests, and the mainland-facing coast sports unexpectedly green fields.

The scenery in Senja and Central Troms is full of contrasts, with the midnight sun and the northern lights, depending on the season. The distance from the coast to “raw” mountain peaks is short and is an ideal combination for those who participate in winter activities.

Honestly just from the little bit of traveling I’ve done I can tell you the one thing that I’ve learned, and I’m sure anyone who has done a lot of traveling could back me up on this and it’s that: nothing will EVER go the way you expect it too.. Sometimes worse, sometimes better. You’ll miss flights, you’ll get flat tires on roadtrips, you’ll end up spending a lot more money then you expect, you’ll miss buses, you’ll have to run to trains to make them on time, you won’t be afraid to spend some nights sleeping in the airports just to save money, I promise you’ll have a dead battery when you’re all alone and all you want to do is call mom to make you feel better, the hostel you wanted will end up being fully booked, your dumb airline will lose all your luggage, and you’ll miss tours that you’ve been waiting to do forever, you’ll run out of money and sometimes you’ll end up having to scrub toilets to get by(that sucked), things will get canceled and you’ll lose some of your favorite pieces of clothing because it won’t fit in your bag, and somehow someway you learn to live off of bread and peanut butter, you go through tough times and you’ll spend many unexpected nights crying but when I look back at everything and all the struggles I went though just to see some part of the world, it is sooo worth it. The adrenaline, the adventure and not knowing where you’ll end up, who you’re going to meet and what you’re going to see is such an incredible feeling. I’m addicted.
