Greenland

2011

I have dreamt about going to Greenland since I was a kid and during the summer of 2011 I finally got the chance. I then took a summer course in glacial geology on the island and took the opportunity to travel to Ilulissat and the Disko Bay region when the course ended. I watched the icebergs in the Ilulissat Icefjord and explored Ilulissat, Qeqertarsuaq and Aasiaat.
