One of the things on my bucket list is to spend a little time in Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway. It is a town within the Arctic Circle, the northernmost settled town in the world and one which has 24 hours of daylight in summer.
These are why I want to go there, to be as far north as I can get and to experience a 24-hour day. The wildlife nearby would also be an experience, but I would have to carry a big gun and I don’t think me with a gun is advisable. Maybe there are group tours?
I suspect there’s not a lot to do in Longyearbyen. That doesn’t bother me, because I want to be involved in writing for at least some of my time there. There is a cafe there that looks like a great place to write.
Longyearbyen is on my bucket list. Not Hawaii or Paris or England (unless I can visit the Shetland Islands), but Longyearbyen.
