Is seeing the Northern Lights on your bucket list of destinations? It is for many travelers. During my recent trip to Sweden I was talking about seeing the Northern Lights with some locals who had seen them. Hearing what they had to say inspired me to learn more about this naturally occurring awesome event. I never realized there are so many possible destinations from which to view the Northern Lights!

Some places, such as Alaska and Montana, even have long windows of viewing opportunity. I found this article about the 16 best places to see the Northern Lights a fun read. And the pictures are beautiful to look at, even if a trip to see the lights isn’t on your bucket list.
