This year, they worked together with the HBO Nordic and result is out of this world. Winter is here. There’s no doubt. They created a stunning Game of Thrones-themed hotel, which is […]
Repovesi is one of Finland’s most popular national parks in the summer time, but when winter arrives, there is hardly anybody. November is perhaps the least popular month to go in the nature. That is why I believe it is the best time to see familiar places in a new way. In November, the day […]
