Scandinavia Sept. 2018

This trip to Norway, Sweden, and Copenhagen was not in my plans at all.  I had planned to go on a different trip with friends, but when that fell through I had to think of something else.  My co-worker had mentioned his trip that he was planning, so I decided to tag along.  I didn’t know anything about the countries except for the fact that it would be possible to see the Northern Lights. With all the traveling we both decided that we weren’t going to check in a bag and would only do carry-on.  I used the Osprey Porter 46 Travel Backpack.
