Dear Carmenne,
In response to your request, I suggest you a trip in Finland.
The Winter season is wonderful in this country.
To begin, you can visit Helsinki, the capital of the Finland, during two days.
Then you will go to Rovaniemi, the main Lapland city to discover some beautiful landscapes.
After meeting Santa Claus (he lives there), you will ride in a reindeer farms.
In the wild nature, you will be initiated to the Ice fishing.
Arktikum museum will explain you the way the north folks live and their history.
You will go on your trip to the Baltic seashore and will join Kemi.
In this nicely small town, you will visit the enchanting snowing castle, and you could spend the night in the snowing hotel.
On board of the Sampo Icebreaker, you will have an impressive experience : float among the ice !
At last, I propose you to finish your journey at Oulu : Visit the town and its museeum, and make shopping in its market hall.
In every hotel, sauna is available and gives you the opportunity to be initiated at this finnish tradition.
Have a good journey !
