I live here and it is still beautiful. From May to early September it almost isn't dark at night and depending on where in the country you live it sometimes seems like living in a postcard ;-) (FTR, Norway is long, if you turned it upside down it would stretch far into Italy they say, driving from my place to the artic circle would be about 17 hours non-stop and then you still have a full working day left to drive to the nortmost point or the Russian border.)

I have lived for months as far as beyond the artic circle and have worked on the very northermost parts for shorter trips and I loved it all the way. (Although ski goggles and warm clothes are recommended to get anything done outside on a windy day in the winter.)
