Sweden: Aurora Borealis over Jokkmokk

Last Tuesday I got five postcards: one from Sweden, three from the United Kingdom and one from Andorra.

The card from Sweden shows the Aurora Borealis over Jokkmokk. Jokkmokk is a town in Lapland just north of the Arctic Circle. It is a centre of Sámi culture in Sweden and is known for the Jokkmokk Market, which is a very important social event for the Sámi people. 


Stamp:
Fish in the Nordic Region (from set of five) (issued 03-05-2018)


Thank You very much Svea!
