Another Bucketlist item crossed

Image Description: A photo of the Northern Lights with lavender purple and mint green colours in the night sky.

Seeing the Northern Lights has always been on my bucket list, and I’m still in awe that I got to experience it without having to travel far. I never thought I’d witness it in my lifetime, assuming it required travelling abroad (cue inaccessibility and air travel).

It started to feel a bit comical, as if we were being teased by news outlets every other week, but the KP Index forecast was strong on October 10th.

Mother Nature has been incredibly generous this year—I feel so lucky to have experienced both the Total Solar Eclipse and the Northern Lights.

For those who missed it, don’t feel bad; seeing the Northern Lights in person is much more subtle than photos suggest—it’s all in the photography but still something worth appreciating.
