GO TEAM SANTA!!

Christmas is coming, and Santa with it...
When we think of Santa, we think of the North Pole. However, we never stop to realize where exactly is such place.

Is it where our compass points to? Well, yes... and no.
We are taught that the north-est point of the globe is slightly different from that pointed out by the compass. No big news here, but what if I told you that there are at least 7 different North Poles?!

Where are you sending your letters now??
