Lapland Seasonal Work Guide
We have packed our suitcases and travelled to work in a new country many times. We know the excitement and the nerves, and all the questions that come up before a new season.
After three seasons in Lapland, we put together the guide we wish we had had before our first trip. It covers work, accommodation, taxes, getting ready and everyday life in Lapland, plus the small tips we have picked up over the years.
Whether your first season is still an idea or your suitcase is already half packed, we hope this guide gives you courage and confidence, and helps you meet the new experience with joy!
