Nordkapp

Another week, another dream come true. Together with a couple of friends I drove over 3000 km last week, all the way to the edge of northern Europe: Nordkapp.

This time, I didn’t bring my Mercedes or Porsche (although I noticed an old 911 making the same trip) but we managed to get our hands on a Volkswagen Touareg and a BMW X5. 

With 20 hours of darkness of the 24 each day gives you, our little convoy often seemed quite lost in the vastness of Lapland. The temperature however was relatively mild which made the whole enterprise less harsh than expected.

We were lucky to witness some shimmering northern lights, a breathtaking sight.  A truly wonderful experience therefore, making the whole trip, with most of the way home still to go, absolutely worth it.
