Hotel Niviarsiaq (Narsaq, Greenland)

Wow. I knew Dad could be an asshole sometimes but I didn’t know he could be this much of an asshole. I wish there was a male equivalent to the word “cunt” because it would be useful to me right in now describing my “father”.

We were hiking up a mountain in Narsaq and it was ( Read more... )

Hotel Narsarsuaq

Didn’t do too much last night, watched Family Guy and went to bed around 10:00. Took me forever to get to sleep because I wasn’t that tired. I was tired all day but of course when I finally get to bed I’m not tired enough.

Woke up at like 6:15 this morning and took a shower. Realized I didn’t need to be up ( Read more... )

Nuuk Airport

Our flight yesterday was 50 minutes late, so we were in the airport about two and a half hours. We thought that was bad, well, here we are at Nuuk airport and our flight at 8:00 is cancelled, and the next one is at 11:40… And there’s nothing to do around here but sit in the airport for the next ( Read more... )

Ilulissat Youth Hostel

Well, I said I wasn’t gunna post today but I have 12 more minutes of internet to spend before we leave here, so I might as well use them.

I couldn’t sleep last night because I wasn’t tired, so Dad and I watched Family guy until like 10:30 and I finally got to sleep maybe at 11:00. I slept ( Read more... )

Ilulissat Youth Hostel

Last night we went on a midnight cruise through the ice fjords. It was really cold, maybe 35 degrees the whole time. The day before had been almost hot, like 58 degrees. Sounds not too warm, but with no humidity and the sun so strong it feels like 80. Anyway, I had to wear my sweatshirt ( Read more... )

Ilulissat Youth Hostel

Didn’t do too much last night, cooked a cheese omelet for dinner and watched Monty Python and the Holy Grail with Dad, went online for a few minutes, then went to bed.

I woke up at 6:30 then every half hour after that until about 9:45. Dad had just gotten back from a shopping binge so ( Read more... )

Nuuk Youth Hostel, 9:19 AM EST+2

I had nothing to do yesterday so I lie down in my bed and accidentally fell asleep for about three hours. I woke up every few minutes like “wtf did I fall asleep? Oh well, *snore*”. I got up around 6 and went into town to use the internet at the hotel. I used that for a bit for $11/half hour ( Read more... )

Youth Hostel in Nuuk, Greenland, 1:10 PM EST+2

Turns out there are only two other people staying here with us. A woman from Greenland and a guy from California who’s apparently doing the same thing Dad and I are doing but on a larger scale. He’s going to be here for ten weeks and is going to about 20 different places in ( Read more... )

This morning I woke up at 6:15 and we started our drive to the Reykjavik airport. It was like maybe five kilometers away but it took us like 45 minutes to get there because it was really confusing and all the signs were in Icelandic. We finally made it and dropped off our car in the parking lot and boarded the flight at 10: ( Read more... )

So I'm about to get on a little plane where the security was the woman at the desk saying "Make sure you don't have any liquids"... Oh well, who the hell terrorizes a flight to Greenland?

We leave at 10:10 and get there at like 10:08 haha cuzza the time difference. I'll be closer to US time,  hours ahead.

Well, hope to see you in Kulusuk! Like I said ( Read more... )
