Hi everyone! This is the third video in my Iceland & Greenland series. In the previous episode, I flew from Reykjavik in Iceland to Nuuk in Greenland.

When you arrive at any new destination, you need to find your feet and orientate yourself. Greenland and Nuuk, its capital, is no exception.

I took to the streets early morning, partly to form raw impressions of this remote, northernmost capital city of the world, but also because it is such an exciting, mysterious destination.

In this video, I walk all the way from my hotel in the harbour to the city centre. I visit a Greenlandic supermarket and was surprised to see that they have seemingly abundant supplies of certain items I did not expect them to have. I also met some locals in the centre who gave me directions and tips about the city, before venturing to the Hans Egede statue and enjoying spectacular views. Later on in the day I also stumbled across a local market and engaged with one of the merchants.

It is fair to say that this outing gave me a good introduction to Greenland and a solid baseline from which to explore Nuuk further in other vlogs! Please make sure that you watch my other vlogs of Nuuk as well!
