I will spend around 4 weeks in far-north Scandinavia. I am wondering what I should take there. I am expecting freezing weather and little daytime. I will do some outside work, also in the snow, e.g. some builsing maintainance and cleaning snow.

I have not been that far north yet, so what kind of clotting should I bring specifically? Also, are there some general things I should consider?

        That’s the coldest time. Things people say about layers should be taken seriously.

        If it’s windy, you’ll need to protect your face too, so bring a balaclava with you. Get one of those that have two holes for eyes. You know, bank robbery style.
