Episode Synopsis
What do you do when the sun refuses to set?Join Russ as he sails north — way north — past the Arctic Circle into the Land of the Midnight Sun. From Bergen to the North Cape, this voyage along Norway’s rugged coast promised postcard-perfect scenery, endless daylight, and a little too much similarity onboard.In this episode, Russ and Duncan discover:The surreal reality of sunlight at 2:00 a.m. — and what it does to your sense of time.How a cruise line known for elegance turned out to be a little too uniform.Why a king crab feast in a smoky tepee became the culinary highlight of the trip.The serene beauty of Norway’s fjords — and the jarring contrast of modern Tromsø.What happens when your luggage goes missing in Oslo (and the saleslady loses her commission).The one moment that made it all worthwhile: standing on deck at the top of the world as the sun refused to set.This journey had it all: beauty, absurdity, laughter, and a few lessons about what really matters when you travel.☀️ Listen for: the sound of the Arctic wind, the ring of distant cowbells, and the quiet awe of a world that never goes dark.✈️ Next UpIn the next episode, Russ sits down with his friend and travel advisor Dee to talk about how to pick the right cruise line, why not all voyages are created equal, and how to make sure your next trip feels as good as it looks on paper.🎧 Listen now on: Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Amazon Music | ExplorationsAllOver.com📸 Follow the journey: Instagram & Facebook → @ExplorationsAllOverShare your thoughts on this episode.Support the showThanks for listening.
