Lapland Tipi

Kiruna, Sweden

 

Took this photo during a dogsled tour up in Swedish lapland. We were given some tea and other Swedish snacks, but most importantly a chance to warm up and escape the frigid cold in this warm tipi/teepee. It was a weird sensation having the tears in your eyes freeze... It still blows my mind that people used to get around like this and live in such freezing cold places. I would highly recommend visiting Lapland at some point if the opportunity presents itself.
