😁🐧Pics that look like perfectly polished AI? 20-something influencers who look runway-ready after a 14-hour flight? Yeah, that’s not us 😅.
We’re the non-glamorous, slightly dusty millennials behind the Penguin Trampoline travel blog. We write first-hand, hiking boots-on-the-ground guides, find the most off-the-beaten-track locations, and yes... we bring a tiny penguin mascot everywhere we go.
Swipe through to meet the team (and see who is responsible for getting us lost in the Arctic) ➡️.

🇸🇪✨ Finnish Lapland gets a lot of the Northern Lights hype, but our very first aurora was actually in Sweden, and we’ve since seen some pretty incredible displays there — and not just in Abisko, the famous spot known for its “Blue Hole”.
Kiruna is an obvious choice, but we were also surprised by Luleå, where we saw the aurora on three nights in one week.
We’ve put together our guide to where to go, when to visit, and what you need to know.
