Chapter Sixteen

Hi again! I thought it was time I treated you to another festive blog post.

It’s strangely quiet at my cabin today and I find I have a little spare time, so I’ll tell you about the place I’m staying.

Frozen Falls knows luxury accommodation. I have a huge soft bed, there’s underfloor heating in every room, and one of those fabulous wet rooms with the massive showerheads that I just love about Scandi countries. The resort provides a huge pile of firewood, so it’s kind of a DIY situation when it comes to lighting up your own grate, and there’s even a Christmas tree and a big basket of decorations, so you can really make yourself at home. But the highlight of the cabins for me is the bedroom under the stars. Still no aurora though. But I’m keeping my eyes open.

Looking out at the trees and the dark and the snow you feel a million miles from the big cities. I almost forget they exist. We’re so remote, I get an overwhelming sense of expectation that anything can happen way out here. In fact, I’m heading out soon, ready for another adventure.

The touristy veneer is cosy and inviting but I’m ready to discover what else Lapland has to offer. I just know its keeping its best secrets hidden. Frozen Falls is quietly reserved, well organised, clean, and generous, but what lies beneath all that? I’m going to find out. I’m going to ask my new friend and guide today if he’ll show me the places only locals know.

Surely, not everything about this place is cookie-cutter pretty and wholesomely homey. I don’t mind getting grit on my boots and frostbite on my fingers if it means I experience something real, something only Inari has to offer, and it doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to be authentic.
