![Photographing wildlife in Greenland]()
Photographing wildlife in GreenlandObserving wildlife that either live their lives or periodically visits the harsh arctic environment is among one of the incredible experiences to have in Greenland. Few places on earth have such a wild and harsh yet beautiful and epic natural environment, and this inspires many, my self included, to attempt to capture a glimpse of its scenery. The country is large and wildlife can be scarce, which means you don’t want to miss an opportunity once it presents itself. Observing wildlife is
![Summer in Greenland]()
Summer in GreenlandWhat a great summer in Greenland! My 12th summer working in the tourism industry in my beautiful country. I work several places out in the world, but need my summer in Greenland to recharge and get my inner peace. I started the summer as a destination guide for Greenland travel in Ilulissat, where my office view often were huge icebergs! Then I worked on a luxury yacht sailing from Nuuk to Disko Bay area, and thereafter two other ships sailing from Iceland through East Gre- Sunset hike to the top of Lille Malene - NuukOne evening in June, my friend Inesa and I decided to go for a hike to the top of the mountain Quassussuaq also known as Lille Malene. The mountain is about 465 meters tall, and you can just follow the ski lift to the top of the mountain. It is a fairly steep hike, which will give your glutes and thighs a good workout but it’s not very far either. So it took us about an hour and 20 minutes to find a good spot with a great view. We eventually settled upon a viewpoint with a bit of
![Visiting Greenland national museum]()
Visiting Greenland national museumI wanted a last insight into the Greenlandic culture before going back to Norway, so I decided to go to the national museum. From the small visit I did, I got to see and experience Greenland from the stone age 4500 years ago to world war II.I think what I found most interesting was to see how they made their tools back in the days and see how they lived. I found it very interesting to see all the different kayaks and how they were different from each part of Greenland. The m

Nuuk the capital of GreenlandWe are from Nuuk, where are you from? I am born and raised in this beautiful place called Nuuk, Greenland. Did you know that you could fly to Nuuk directly from Reykjavik international airport, Iceland (KEF)? - and from the domestic airport too. We are not that far away suddenly huh?! Nuuk is a destination both summer and winter. My favorite months are June-September during summer months for sailing, hiking, fishing, camping and enjoying the summer heat. While
![The longest word in the Greenlandic language]()
The longest word in the Greenlandic languageGreenlandic is a polysynthetic language which allows for the creation of really long words by stringing together roots and suffixes, and is therefore pretty well known for its long words, but which is the longest? If you go to a website called kalak.gl it claims the longest word is this: Nalunaarasuartaatee-ranngualioqatigiiffissua-lioriataallaqqissupiloru-jussuanngortartuinnaka-sinngortinniamisaalinn-guatsiaraluallaqqooqiga-minngamiaasiinngooq."

The small villages are getting smaller while the towns are getting bigger. Nuuk is the administrativ town with many job opportunities and therefore are people moving to the capital while the young ones also move to Nuuk to study. On the picture above is the old part of Nuuk in the front, with the new in the back. There is even a newer part beneath the mountain far back, which
- Sailing in Disco bayThe best day off for me is to get away from everything and enjoy the nature. This weekend a friend asked another friend and I if we would like to enjoy him on a boat tour in the disco bay, and of course, we went out! :-) Even though we are used to this huge and beautiful nature, we still find it breathtaking and have many pictures of icebergs :-) There are so many beautiful shaped icebergs in many sizes. I love to spend the time o
- Qaqortoq, the biggest town in South Greenland'Qaqortoq' means 'white' in Greenlandic. South Greenland has more green fields and trees than any other places in Greenland, however ironically the name of this biggest town (population: 3,084 - Statistics Greenland 2017) in South Greenland is 'white'. Does Qaqortoq envy other towns in Greenland with a lot of snow and ice? Qaqortoq has been my favourite town in whole Greenland since my first travel to Greenland in 2010. So far, I have visited nine towns/settlements in Greenland
![Things I miss living in Greenland]()
Things I miss living in GreenlandRecently, I was in London, immersed in the heaving mass of city life. I was reminded of the things one misses when living in Greenland. Here are some of them. Coffee. As far as I know, it is not possible to buy a good cup of coffee in Greenland. People used to drive out to Nuuk's airport café, as it had a reputation for the best coffee in town. But the café has changed hands and I can’t say I was all that impressed even before the café’s latest incarnation. Th- Paradise island - QeqertarsuaqDisko Island "Qeqertarsuaq" is a very beautiful and unique island. Here you can find hot springs and tall steep basalt mountains created by volcanic activity 25-65 million years ago. Because of its volcanic creation, this town has a very beautiful black beach. The icebergs are being pushed up to land with the tides and allow you to have an indescribable evening walk by the water among these beautiful frozen objects. It´s an amazing sight and if I was
- The true size of Greenland, should it be a Continent?Greenland is the 12th largest country and is known as the largest island in the world. Due to its massive size and a tiny population of less than 57.000, it is the least densely populated country with 0,026 people per square kilometer. It is mostly covered by the second largest mass of ice in the world, which, if it were to melt, is estimated to cause a global sea level rise of up to 7 meters. All these things clearly signify that it's a humongous country, so the question is: why isn't i

It is 8.578 km² and is one of the 100 biggest islands in the world. It is about 100 kilometres from the mainland in the Disko bay. If you are visiting the disko bay area it is a great opportunity to take the boat to this Island. You need at least two nights here to see the town and go on very beautiful hikes.
