Something to do before I die.

I have a lot of places I want to go, of course, and hopefully I will be able somehow to see all of them before I get too old to ride a yak in Mongolia or start drinking retsina at lunchtime in Greece. Obviously, I should have picked a more lucrative career; but at least I still have many more years before I get tied down in a steady job.

The newest addition to the list is staying in a glass igloo in Finland, where I could lay back and watch the Nothern lights from bed. Even if that bed is covered in a frankly cheesy zebra-stripe fleece.

It would make a pretty excellent honeymoon kind of trip, yeah? Much better than going to Hawaii.
