“For a truly unique experience spend a night in the Snow Hotel in Kireness – it literally is made of snow and ice and gets rebuilt each December in a different decorative theme!”

Marvel at the Northern Lights from your glass igloo in Finland
Lapland
Located in Finland’s Lapland region, we all know who the most famous resident here is, and we’d put money on Santa spending most of his downtime at an igloo resort.
These snow-tucked hotels boast multiple glass igloos accommodating between two and four guests. Thermal glass and zero WiFi allows you to take a cosy digital detox beneath a fluttering of snow and the best starlit sky in Europe. With a domed glass design, igloos boast the best seats in the house to see Aurora Borealis, AKA the Northern Lights.
Marbling the sky from August through to late April, for a once-in-a-lifetime auroras experience, book a stay here.

As an experienced travel consultant with over 9 years in the industry, I
bring a wealth of expertise and a genuine passion for exploring the world. My
career has been shaped by a commitment to helping others create unforgettable
journeys, fueled by my own love for adventure.
In early 2024, I achieved a lifelong dream by traveling to Antarctica—a
testament to my adventurous spirit and firsthand knowledge of unique,
bucket-list destinations. Whether you're seeking a serene retreat, a cultural
immersion, or an epic expedition, my global insights and personalised approach
ensure every journey is as inspiring as it is seamless.
Our lives are defined by experience, when we travel we open up an array of new
experiences to be had. It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to assist
others with their own leisure holidays or bucket list adventures.

House of Travel Lower Hutt
My love of languages and exploring the world has naturally evolved into
a career in travel. I enjoy discovering what motivates your travels and
tailoring your trip to suit your own style and interests.
I have travelled extensively across Europe and lived abroad both in the UK and
Paraguay. Recent travel highlights include cruising Hawaii’s Islands and
experiencing the best of Washington DC.
My special interest is in cruising, from the world’s largest floating resorts
to casually cruising Europe’s rivers or the more adventurous Expedition ships
to the Antarctic. There is a cruise possibility for every personality and
preference!
I look forward to getting to know you and helping you to get the most out of
your next adventure.
