#17 A solo expedition through Greenland’s drifting ice.

Thomas Bechmann from the island of Fyn in Denmark, moved to Greenland for a year to gain experience paddling one of the most remote stretches of the Greenlandic coast. He paddled for 2 months, about 1600 kilometers from Assissut to Sisimiut. In this episode, he shares lessons from his solo expedition: What to do when the wind pulls you under the ice, why walruses are wary of white paddles, what happens when polar bears miss their ride on drifting ice, and even what to do with leftover caribou. This is a raw Arctic experience for kayakers.During his expedition, Thomas listened to the same love song every day. We end this episode with that song. With gratitude to Rasmus Lyberth Greenlandic singer for allowing us to share his beautiful song “Asanaqigavit” - Because I love you .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mPWifJcqZGs
