Finmark, Norway


I wasn’t sure what to expect when I arrived at the Kirkenes airport in Norway. However the history in the Finmark county, and the landscape have blown me away.

There was one point I actually became too overwhelmed to take a photo. I was on the way to Hamingberg, the most northern point of the country, where rocky mountains met the clearest blue ocean I’ve ever seen. Finmark has these amazing mountains and beautiful beaches, even if it is too cold to swim.

Finmark is a completely underrated and untouristy destination, one that you have to see for yourself.
