In the northern hemisphere, only two hours by plane from Iceland, there’s a country where time seems to stand still. In Greenland everything is quite: no noise from engines or horns, no crowds in overpopulated streets. When you travel to Greenland you’ll find that everything seem to be frozen. Once summer comes, the climate offers days of endless sunshine. You might lose your bearings: you’ll be struck by the contrast of enormous glaciers alongside small fishermen’s houses. The perfect whiteness, shimmering and glacial, could hurt the eyes because of its dazzling glare. Far off you might hear some barking: it’s the huskies setting off for a new journey. Greenland is definitely a country of extraordinary nature, a country where the glacial climate warms the heart of its inhabitants. A country, quite simply, to discover.

During my trip to Greenland, I spent several days in Ilulissat, a really lovely colourful little town on the west coast of Greenland. Don't go for the nightlife (after 9pm you won't find much going on) but go for the magnificent natural surroundings. Outside the town, three clearly marked trails, which are quite accessible, will allow you to explore the coast and the icefjord , which continually churns out icebergs. In the summer, sit on a rock facing west and enjoy the sunshine.
I suggest you try a Greenlandic buffet dinner in one of the few restaurants in Ilulissat, and don't leave until you have tasted seal, whale or musk ox. You must try mattaq, whale skin and blubber, a delicacy.
