Read on to discover the best Nordic break for you.   For 30 years I have been writing as The Man Who Pays His Way – with the strongest of incentives to seek out the best value in travel, and to hold holiday companies, airlines and the rest of the industry to account. They still advertise with The Independent, and work with us in partnership on commercial ventures (all of which are clearly badged, incidentally, to keep them distinct from pure editorial). During those three decades, the travel desk has always been small but focused: telling the stories of innovation, indulgence and adventure, along with a reliable tangle of transport chaos along the way. My excellent colleagues (all of whom seem to be even younger than me) are also formidably productive. The work has become sharper and faster since The Independent went entirely online eight years ago, and as a reader I believe the journalism is even better.
