About Me

ABOUT ME

Right now studying in Denmark.

My mother is danish and my father is greenlandic. Born and raised in Ilulissat. Been away different places in Greenland and Denmark from 1993 to 2003. I lived in a rentet apartment with a view to the icebergs. I and another person had 8 dogs and a puppy at the moment, going dogsledding as a hobby. Population in Ilulissat is 4500 and there's 3000 dogs. Ilulissat means icebergs. The city is up close the icefiord of the worlds most productive glacier. A popular place for tourists. Midnight sun from 21 of may to 24 of july. For 1½ month in the winter the sun doesn't rise, reappears 13th of january. Northern lights in the winter. Calm water and very sunny. Friendly people :0) Ask me if there's anything you wants to know.
