    The Aurora Borealis must be a really impressive sight, I want to see live it one day too.

      You don’t need to get that far north to see it, but the further you go the more impressive it gets. Unfortunately it’s somewhat random so you never know far in advance which night will have really good Aurora.

      When I lived up north one day I was looking out my apartment window and was surprised to see it right there plain as day. Other nights the sky was pitch black.

        Whereabouts are you, if you don’t mind me asking?

          I’m in Canada. Used to be about half way up Manitoba.

              I’m hoping there’s a right turn coming next year, it’ll be the place it used to be again. (But when you’re outside of Toronto and Vancouver it’s basically a different country anyway)

                I hope so too, I don’t know enough about Canadian politics but Trudeau is a meme
