In many towns in Greenland, you see these houses built on the hillsides, making the towns as colorful as the national costume. In Greenland, they love colors, probably because the winter is so long and so white.

Sassuma Arnaa is described as the mother/goddess of the sea that has been around since the dawn of time.

In Inuit mythology people believe that she is the sea-goddess and has control over the sea-animals.

If there is something that is bothering the mother of the sea, her long black hair would get all filthy and trap the animals in her long black hair, resulting in no food for the many families living off the sea.

Whenever this happened, the Inuit people would contact an Angakkoq (Shaman) asking him to go down to Sassuma Arnaa and comb her hair to release all of the animals and make her happy again.

Arctic tern attack!

They fiercely defend their nests, attacking invaders by pecking at their heads. They are so ferocious that other bird species take advantage of their protective cover by building their own nests nearby.

We are currently cruising the Arctic on a luxury expedition vessel! 🛳

One animal we have always wanted to see, the puffin. Actually we have now seen 100s of them! They are only on land for a few months of the year. They spend the rest of the time at sea 🌊

During the next few weeks we can’t wait to see many more!

Dwarf minke whales 🐋

You can swim with these beautiful creatures on the Great Barrier Reef. The Great Barrier Reef is the only place in the world that you can snorkel with dwarf minke whales: an experience so exclusive it only happens for two months of the year and only in Tropical North Queensland 🤿

The whales are the only known type to see out human interaction. They swim right up to you! During our experience we had 13 whales all around us. They measure a maximum of 7.8m long and are the second smallest whale on the planet 🌏

Here is a photo we took on this magical trip! Get in touch for more info on how to do this 📸

The Giants Causeway a marvel of nature! However we do love the fairytale version where the Irish giant Finn MacCool was challenged to a fight by the Scottish giant Benandonner. Fionn accepted the challenge and built the causeway across the North Channel so that the two giants could meet.

It’s an area of stunning beauty!
