Hi! I'm planning my first big road trip this summer. The plan is to travel trhough the eastern part of Finland, visit a bunch of national parks and go all the way up to the North Cape.

Somewhat around 3 weeks on the road.

It's gonna be my first road trip all by myself, so I'd be happy to get any advice on the road safety in Finland, or how not to be eaten alive by mosquitos and ticks in Lapland (if at all possible).

Any tips on what I should definitely take with me, other then general camping equipment? I'm planning to spend some nights in the hotels and some nights in a tent in the camping sites.

I'm also taking my dog with me, so if you have any tips on traveling and hiking with a dog, that would also be very welcome :)
