A little bit of the Aurora show we saw in Longue Pointe de Mingan in July 2026. It was amazing to see puffins and the lights on the same trip!

I’ve been planning to see these beautiful birds for years. When we went to Newfoundland in 2023 it didn’t work. Iceland in 2024 didn’t work also but now we hit the jackpot inside our province: Île aux Perroquets, in Quebec, 1200km away from Montreal.
It’s a spot that is worth exploring!

We travelled to Mingan Archipelago to try to see puffins since we failed to see them a couple of times but in our first night here we were caught by surprise by this amazing Aurora show!

Some friends thought I gave up chasing the lights because I had some amazing views in Norway but be sure that I’ll do always my best to see it, but in the summer my hyperfocus tends to be about viewing wildlife.

What a nice surprise!

One trip. Nine bears. Every encounter was amazing and I wanted to be able to do more for preserving these giant creatures 🐻❤️

Be bear aware! They are beautiful but we should never approach them. All videos were made in safe distance using iPhone zoom and we were in the car in all of them.

Another bear encounter, this time in Whistler BC 🇨🇦🐻

Of all the bear sightings I have, this is the most special one. An amazing road, we turned and the bear was just walking there, only for us. This was definitely a special day in Icefields Parkway in Banff National Park, Alberta 🇨🇦 🐻

I put a lot of videos together to show in one minute a little bit of what I saw during my three weeks trip to Norway, Finland and Sweden. It was amazing, had the chance to see the northern lights eight times and also enjoyed the beautiful landscapes of northern Norway, the pines forest of Finnish Lapland and the good vibes of the city of Stockholm.

What about a third night in a row of northern lights?

Here we don’t chase northern lights, we chase good weather. Even with bad data it’s usually possible to see something.

Second night of Aurora in a row! I was still tired of the previous night since we had driven no less than 900km in a day (we got rewarded by seeing blue Aurora for the first time in our lives) but when the data is good we need to go! I didn’t have to drive much to see this one, only 10km away from Lakselv center.
