  • Visiting Qaqortoq in South Greenland, while enjoying the Uunartoq hot springs. South Greenland is definitely getting under my skin, as each trip there makes me appreciate the nature, sunshine and general pleasantness of being there, both from the milder climate and also the warmer people.

    Greenland, my favorite bucket list destination ever. Your videos are always filled with a surprise or two, ice arch and a seal, a beach with brilliant blue water and off course that hot spring. Love the town and trees and surroundings. Can't wait for the next video 🤗. As always, greetings from South Africa 🌍💛🇿🇦.

    Ok another part of Greenland. Lets see.. I need to learn more ! I need to prepare for my future. Better this then reading boring stuff on Wilipedia 🥰
    Thanks Alex. Haha what an awesome "coincidence" (or synchronicity depending on your perspective) that I discovered your channel.
    Oh I forgot to tell you how new islands and "continents" will soon appear after some underwater movements hahaha 💫
    So yeah the future is so exciting sometimes my visions of the future are so vivid and awesome its hard to fall asleep 😂 Because its so exciting, and many people would even have a hard time just understanding the things I see with my 3rd eye 😂
    Even I, often have to do research on tech and science that was shown in those visions 😂 Its so weird but Im loving it.
    So many years this false narrative apocalyptic stuff was taking all the room. NO MORE 💫 And its very recent. They lost. We won. The future is bright and its human 🥰
    So many awesome things guys ! Your dreams are even BELOW whats coming for us 🥰💫
    OMG ALEX !! Glimpse of the future right there at 7m53. Lol this airport thing.. see ? Read my other comments I told you about a certain bridge ^^
    Well on your map'go East near the water and a bridge is there and it leads to Svalbard. But remember the island has grown bigger in the future (ice melting ?!?), or at least thats what I sensed ^^
    Omg i felt like two big communities uniting and visiting each other so much more often, trading more easily and stuff.
    New centers will be build and new cities for people to live and visit. Oh yeah at some point Pyramiden gets this upgrade then my team's work is complete and we move to another location ( i dont see past this point in my personnal future though).
    Haha i love how this is the first steps right there. Awesome 💫
    Its like Greenland becomes this Huge entity and Alaska/Canada/Terres-Neuves also similar vibe and role for the people located in usa and america in general. Also im pretty sure its gonna grow in size just like orher parts i already told you.
    My understanding is that Gaia will make room for people to live and thrive, in new ways unknown to many people still at this time 💫

    Gorgeous vistas, as always. And yes, from what I’ve read about Greenland, so far, I always found it funny that Qaqortoq, being a fairly big town, does not have its own airport… but looks like that will change soon enough.

    Hi Alex. Any exciting activities to do in Greenland on November for solo traveller? I’m so excited to finally get a chance to visit Greenland this year, although it’s not summer.. I have looked many guided tour activities, but it seems November is not the best month to visit there. Cheers from Indonesia :)
