It’s hard to believe that two weeks ago we were practically in this billboard in Ilulissat. Now in Reykjavik admiring this image from the side of the highway and getting ready to listen, listen, listen to ideas from all over the north. Looking forward to reunions with @solindblad @dittehejberg and others. #meetthenorth #lindbladexpeditions #arcticcircleconference #conference…
Getting ready for the Arctic Circle Conference in Iceland with a portfolio in book form. I’m excited to meet new people and can’t wait to share our work. Thank you to @lindbladexp @natgeo for supporting #meetthenorth from the beginning. #lindbladexpeditions #iceland #arctic #arcticcircle #north #portfolio #collaboration #conference #arcticcircleconference
Small boats come and go all day and night from the harbour in Ilulissat. Fishermen often head out on their own, sometimes to set the lines, sometimes to pull them in. Any given morning there will be a couple of dozen men sitting at the dock and baiting their hooks, 500 at a time. It…
Meet Greenland’s first Adventure Guides in training. This new program will graduate internationally certified guides and they will be Greenlandic experts in Greenland.

Bon voyage! #meetthenorth #lindbladexpeditions #guiding #adventureguides #greenland #learning #funtogether #arctic #examtime #lovetheworld
Goodnight from the land of blazing skies. Many Greenlanders grew up afraid of the aurora. Some children were told that they could come down from the sky and grab you. One man shared what he was taught: if you whistle at the northern lights, they will decapitate you. Sweet dreams. It has been wonderful to…

Post 1 of 2. When Ole got his first motorbike, he went north while all of his friends went south. He visited northern Norway and has never stopped with the north. He’s been to the Faroe Islands and Iceland. He lives in Greenland now, and his wife is from here. Now that he is 62,…
Post 2 of 2. “This one is by a Danish guy . . . He made the forest, and then one day his Greenlandic wife phoned him and said, ‘Is it okay that I have been making some icebergs on your forest?’ And he said, ‘Well, yes’, and so it was. They are living in…
Portrait of Climate Change. Home grown potatoes in Ilulissat, Greenland. Ole Gamst-Pedersen, the curator of the art museum grew them himself. “This wouldn’t have been possible ten years ago.” Not quite the gorgeous pastels of @zarialynn that help us see how precious ice is, but I’ve never met a potato that gave me so much…
Ilulissat. Where all the beauty comes at once. Sun setting. Moon rising. Ice glowing. And the aurora can’t even wait for darkness. @paulzizkaphoto @davebrosha #lindbladexpeditions #lovetheworld #diskobay #arctic #ilulissat #greenland #bbctravel #aurora #auroraborealis #auroraboreale #northernlights #icefjord #jacobshavn #unesco #upallnight
