Fun Travel Destinations to Visit in the Winter
I love to travel all year around, but there are some pretty incredible places to visit in the winter months. Some locations are covered in Christmas decor with tons of sights to see. Some are decked out for a fabulous New Years Celebration. While others are destinations to get away from the craziness and relax. There are also fabulous hot and cold destinations to explore.
I have done a lot of research to find the BEST places to visit in the winter. I also took a lot of time finding super unique places to stay. I did this because when I travel I love to stay in boutique hotels. I have found that they make your stay more of an experience. I hope you enjoy exploring each of these beautiful destinations.
1. Golden Crown Iglu In Kittilä, Finland - Talk about an amazing view that is picture worthy. I can't think of anything cooler than a week long get away in an igloo in the middle of a snowy wonderland.
