Lauren Wiggett

Lauren was brought up living in Northumberland near the coast. She joined the sales team in 2017.

Since joining the Sales team Lauren has been to many of our destinations in Finland including: Apukka, Wilderness Hotel Inari, Juutua, Nellim, Nangu, Northern Lights Village in Saariselka and Pyha. Lauren has also travelled to Iceland and this was the first destination where Lauren saw the Northern Lights which of course was the highlight of the trip! It was a cloudy evening on the harbourfront in Iceland however, The Northern Lights Cruise was still running, it was her last night on the trip and within 30 minutes of being out on the water the captain made the announcement that the Northern Lights were visible from the rear of the boat. This really proved to Lauren that all you need is a break in the clouds!

More recently in December 2023 Lauren travelled back to Finland to visit many of our hotels before the winter season begun. Lauren took part in an Aurora Camp at Juutua, during this activity you are sat in the sled pulled by the guide on a snowmobile across Lake Inari to a spot out in the wilderness, the guide will start a fire and the group will be given warm drinks whilst listening to the guides stories. Lucky for Lauren as the guide was speaking the Northern Lights appeared right above the group!
