Hello everyone! 👋 I'm Roberta, a passionate traveler with an insatiable love for adventure and discovery. At 34, I've explored various regions of the world (both solo and in groups), living unforgettable experiences like my two recent trips organized in Indonesia and Greece through my program "My Friend In." I speak four languages, but there's one universal language I hope we'll all speak: the language of travel and openness to others 🥰 It will be a pleasure to accompany you at every stage of our journey in Lapland, sharing my expertise in backpack preparation, providing useful information about the destination, and creating extraordinary memories together. On weekends, I also don the hat of an event photographer, so if you love capturing every moment and creating indelible memories, you're in the right place! 🤭 P.S. and my drone will always be ready to capture the most magical moments of our journey! Choosing to travel with me means not only exploring incredible places but also living an authentic adventure full of surprises. Ready to embark on the incredible journey to Norway? I can't wait to share this unique experience with you! 🌍✈️ And if you have any special wishes or questions, feel free to write me. 😉

In Rovaniemi, I have selected a cozy Airbnb that is ideally located for our Arctic adventure. This accommodation will allow us to live like locals and enjoy the close proximity to the city's attractions. The Airbnb features multiple bedrooms to accommodate all of us comfortably and a shared kitchen where we can prepare meals together, making our stay cost-effective given the high prices typical of the region. If our group size varies, I will adjust our accommodations accordingly to ensure everyone enjoys a comfortable and intimate experience without compromising on quality or the nature of our stay. Feel free to reach out in the Q&A section with any questions about the accommodations or any other aspects of our trip!
