Since several years the idea of visiting Greenland had been playing in my head. The fascination with icebergs and glaciers, with places sufficiently off the beaten track to have something adventurous. I first started planning in February 2018 for the coming summer, only to notice that, actually, I should have made certain bookings quite a bit earlier. So, I put off the plan to the next year, to July 2019. Ferry transfers, long solitary hikes, plane rides and boat excursions to the phenomenal icy landscapes hidden in fjords and bays: all worked out marvellously, and here are some impressions. I am just sorry the pictures taken from the little boats silently floating in front of a huge iceberg or glacier, cannot fully revive the magic of the surrounding serenity and silence, only disrupted by the blow of a humpback whale, the cracking of a moving ice mass or the distant, rumbling collapse of an ice cave on the flank of an iceberg as high as an apartment block.
