Read MoreWhen I think of Eastern Europe I think of a run down, old, grey building with broken windows covered in graffiti. You can call me naïve but I have never really ventured outside of Western Europe.
Read MoreWe are going to stray away from the comical anecdotes for some hard-core tips on traveling throughout Scandinavia for a minute. Because, in all honesty, what I am about to tell you are important facts when planning your next adventure to the Nordic north.
