Norway

Norway is up there with the most expensive countries to visit and live in the world. However, its one of the best places to go if you’re looking to see the Northern Lights.

Tromso in the far north of the country ranks amongst the best places on earth to see the natural phenomenon of the Aurora Borealis. Of course, you have to visit in winter, if you want to see them.
