The idea of north
Apr. 19th, 2012 01:50 pmDay 26: Name one place you would love to visit one day.
If I have to name just one, I'm going to be sneaky and say, rather generically, 'the north'. For the past ten years at least, I've had this desire to roam around places so far north that the sun never sets (or, conversely, that the sun never rises). Top on my list are Iceland, Norway and Finland, which all sound like they're really, really beautiful.
I will, at least, be able to cross Finland off my list pretty soon. I've been accepted to present a paper at a conference in Helsinki in early June, so I'll be heading off there in the not-too-distant future. I'm not sure if it's going to be 24-hour daylight there at that point, but I look forward to it in any case.
