2018 has had its fair share of everything: some of it I expected, much of it I didn’t, and all of it a challenge. Just a short one from here folks to say thanks for tagging along with me in the shenanigans. I’ll try my best to keep it interesting going into 2019: here’s a snapshot and clip from one of my favourite highland trips of the year with @icelandic_explorer. Happy New Year, my dears! ? #iceland

Laying low, good company and all the trimmings: this is what Christmas time calls for. Whoever and wherever you are, I wish you very Merry Christmas! For the Icelanders, gleðileg jól and for my fellow Brazilians, Feliz Natal! #christmas #merrychristmas #greenland

The Silent Arctic Photographic Expedition in Greenland: Day 2, pt. 2 Ok guys basically day 2 was so epic, that I couldn’t fit it all into one carousel, so I made another one! This amounts to MORE bears and MORE perspective shots of the vessel Opal and the land around us. There is nothing like a giant iceberg to humble you and your size. Puny little humans! #silentarctic

The Silent Arctic Photo Expedition: A Day-by-Day Series. Day 2: Five Bear Day. We woke in Greenland for the first time. This is a surreal experience in itself. You know that feeling, when you wake up somewhere completely strange for the first time? And so, we woke to reports from Donna Wood our sister vessel of a bear (there’s only one kind of bear out here, the Polar Bear), then it was OMG everybody, battle stations! The first bear (a young male) swam between our vessels and then extremely close to us, within 3 meters (PIC 1&2). Then, there was an AVALANCHE off of the glacier closest to us, right into the sea! (PIC 3 and SLOW-MO VID 4) After an extremely exciting morning, it was time for a celebratory beer (PIC 5), @ashwinigupte and @amk_travels getting stuck in here! Then, our incredible guide saw some more bears in the distance, this time it was a mother and two cubs! Our jaws hit the floor, it was too good to be true. We went towards them, but kept our distance, out of respect. (PIC 6) Later in the day we found a sleeping Bear (an adult male, the biggest kind) sleeping on an iceberg about the size of a New York City block. We were going that way anyway, and we watched him wake up, yawn a few time, roll around a bit, ignore us and go back to sleep, but not before we got a good look at his tongue! As we sailed away, you can see the context within which we saw him: ice everywhere! (PIC 7&8) This was probably one of the best days ever. Little did I know, there were to be 6 more! Would you like to join us next year for Silent Arctic 2019? Link in bio! #silentarctic #greenlandpioneer

Silent Arctic Photo Expedition: A day-by-day Series. Day 1. I’ve been getting a lot of questions about where my Greenland pictures are. The truth is that it was a journey that has taken a tremendous amount of time to process. So, I have decided that the best way to show how this journey played out over is to do a series 7 posts, one for every day of the journey. For everybody that is curious about what we saw on that journey, this is for you. Here, you will find a caption for each photo: 1/2: Opal and Donna Wood, an incredible duo. 3: This was our first sight of Greenland through the window of our special charter plane from Air Iceland Connect. 4: We approach a strange, moody patch of mist lying out to sea, not connected to the land. 5: Opal right in the thick of the moodiness. We were elated and ecstatic to be in this beautiful scenery. The captain may have been a bit nervous(!) 6: Details from the misty ice. 7: @amk_travels looking pretty badass on board Opal. 8: We land in Ittoqqortoormiit after many hours of sailing, and our guide Olaf, with over 40 years of experience in Northeast Greenland, smiles back at me. Later, he would admit that in that week, he had had his picture taken more times than for his entire life up until that point. 9: Donna Wood sails off into the distance, slightly ahead of us (Opal) and towards the icebergs. #silentarctic #greenland
