I loved Berlevåg - but then I was there the one week of the year when the sun was shining and the snow was a distant memory...

Finnmark - Norway
Finnmark or Finnmárku is a county in the extreme northeast of Norway. By land it borders Troms county to the west, Finland (Lapland) to the south and Russia (Murmansk Oblast) to the east, and by water, the Norwegian Sea (Atlantic Ocean) to the northwest, and the Barents Sea (Arctic Ocean) to the north and northeast.
The county was formerly known as Finmarkens amt or Vardøhus amt, and since 2002, has had two official names: Finnmark (Norwegian) and Finnmárku (Sami language). It is part of the Sápmi region, which spans four countries, as well as the Barents Region, and is the largest and least populated county of Norway.
Situated at the Northernmost part of continental Europe, where Norway swings eastward, Finnmark has always been an area where east meets west, in culture as well as in nature and geography. Vardø, the easternmost municipality in the country, is located farther east than St. Petersburg and Istanbul.
The Norse form of the name was Finnmörk. The first element is finn(ar), the Norse name for the Sámi people. The last element is mörk which means woodland or borderland. In Norse times the name was referring to any places where Sámi people were living (also parts of Southern Norway).
More recently, Finnmark is also the older name for Lapland in Sweden and is used by some inhabitants in this region. The title comes from Linné's expeditions in the northern Nordic regions during the 18th century, and his choice of name was influenced by the history of the region.

Alta by Fall, Finnmark Norway
Alta is mostly known for the Igloo Hotell and the amazing northern lights. But did you know that Alta is just as beautiful in the other seasons? This for example is between Summer and fall.
A big thanks to Gargia Lodge, for the amazing help we got during porduction. Check out their website here:
The Art Nouveau Town of Alesund, Norway
The art nouveau town of Alesund was the first major stop on the Midnatsol northbound voyage. There are several different shore excursions but ex-Marine (husband, Steve) and I decided to do it ourselves.
A very easy, two-block walk from where the Midnatsol docked to where Kongensgate, a pedestrian street with art nouveau houses and shops began. From there, across the Brosundel Canal to the Jugendstilsenteret, once an old pharmacy and now the Art Nouveau center of Alesund.
Alesund is a pretty town even in the winter that must be stunning during the summer.
