Non-tropical destination ideas. Where in the world are my sims?

i'd love to see sweden as an option, or maybe even ireland. stormy weather with tons of snow.
ireland has tons of beautiful ruins and castles from the older days, would be great for people into exploration or era themed packs, like myself! especially if you could extend your vacation for however long you want in ireland! then you can write fairly accurate time pieces for at least those locations with Simlit. :)
