Touch the harpoon head, try on the fur clothes, talk with the hunter with a few words and gestures. These are not museum items, we choose to use them beside smartphones and handheld gps devices, because some traditional techniques are simply better.

We hope we gave our guests some good moments that won’t be forgotten.

Thank you for inviting the community Mike, it was such a delightful evening last night. The food was lovely of course, and the best of all were the happy faces and the feeling of closeness, that we enjoy and love the same things.

Crafts from Qaanaaq.
Minatures made of sealskin and wood. Skills of skinwork and traditional hunting are very much alive in our community.

Seakayaking and hiking combi trip in Nuuk Fiord, with Maligiaq Padilla leading the kayaking, and partnering with Two Ravens for hiking. Intimate knowledge of the nature goes without saying (but let me say it again😉). The special parts are experiences like the stories with the local guides who grew up in this nature, and the foraging on the way which gives a taste of not only our fresh food but also our way of life.

The sea ice out there will stay frozen perhaps for one more month.

Siorapaluk is the northernmost natural settlement on our planet. There are a handful of towns and stations further north that are inhabited year round, but here we have sustained ourselves for millennia, from the surrounding sea and land.

The sun stays up in the sky for 4 months of the year. No cars, the main means of transportation in this season is dogs. Life is determined by the wind, tide, sea ice, and movement of wildlife. It’s soul cleansing experience to tune in to the local rythm.
