Experiencing the aurora borealis
I know we’re in the final days of summer, but if you’re planning a winter getaway, ponder this: Experiencing the aurora borealis, the northern lights, hit the top ten of almost every official travel bucket list, often in the number one spot.

Our award-winning producer, Lia Granger, has this fantastic story.
