How I did it: I did many researches to acchieve this goal. I've been digging every single website related to the Northern Lights and the place I chose to visit. Learned to choose the best place, best month and best time to see the Northern Lights to MAKE SURE to see it!!

This is my travel diary about my journey to Tromso :)

Lessons & tips: The tips are:

- To choose a right place to stay for at least 10 nights, and the place you choose should be the place within the aurora zone (Tromso, Lapland, Whitehorse, etc....)

- The best period of time is between November and February (but it really depends on the place you choose to stay).

- The Northern Lights normally occur in clear sky and in a very cold winter night. 

- Avoid full moon period.

- Stay outside every night between the time when the Northern Lights occur. (the time varies in different area, you have to check for it to MAKE SURE to see it)

- Stay away from the city lights.

- Stay at least 10 nights in the place you visit to increase the chance to see it!

- BE PATIENCE.
