Most people want to escape somewhere warm and tropical during their winter. Other people say, screw that noise; let’s go travel somewhere where it’s EVEN COLDER.
If this is you, and you’re planning some winter travel, I have some great advice based on what’s worked for me during an unusually cold December in the Baltics, which have a reputation for being unusually cold ANYWAY. With a whole bunch of careful layering, and the right outerwear (and underwear), you can enjoy walking around the beautiful towns of Helsinki, Tallinn, and Riga - or some of the cities of Canada, Scandinavia, Iceland…really, wherever you visit in this world that’s only barely passable for human habitation, but still gorgeous.
I got most of my stuff from @oysho - not sponsored by them, just like them - but no matter where you buy from, make sure you check what temperature all your layers are marked as suitable for.
How to dress for winter travel:
✅ Thermal underwear
✅ Fleece lined pants/leggings
✅ Wool sweater
✅ First outerwear layer (fleece!)
✅ Wool socks - alpaca or merino
✅ Down jacket graded for COLD temps
✅ Winter beanie/anything to cover ears and head
✅ Scarf/balaclava
✅ One pair of lighter gloves that let you use your hands
✅ One pair of heavier ski gloves or mittens for the really cold nights
