A little hello from one of the most remote corners of the world 🐇

Spent our first day in Ittoqqortoormiit wandering through the colourful houses and meeting a few very fluffy locals.

It’s a beautiful place at first glance but behind all the colourful facades, I couldn’t stop thinking about how tough life here must be. Being this far away from everything changes your idea of what remote actually means.

Supplies for the supermarket only arrive twice a year, so once the last ship leaves, the people here are left with whatever they have until the next one comes. Then slowly winter arrives and the sea ice gives more opportunities for hunting, but the lack of sunlight makes the isolation even more noticeable.

There’s internet, social media & all the things we’re used to, but the physical world around you is still incredibly isolated.

Definitely one of those places that stays with you.
