Friendly PSA. I did two weeks in Ilulissat/Iliminaq and though I packed well, the one thing I wish I'd remembered was melatonin or a sleeping pill. Most hotels have dark enough shades or curtains so that + a sleep mask is enough, but not always! Especially if you have a west-facing room / water view, which means the summer sun will beam into your window right when you are hoping to fall asleep. :)
I have a question about qivittoqs -- I'm familiar with the history/folklore, but I'm a traveler visiting Greenland and was recently talking to a native Greenlander who said qivittoqs are still a phenomenon today, in which some people sort of "drop out" of regular society and live off in the mountains alone, while also making threats against others, or even kidnapping people and committing murders and assaults. And that the police from larger towns like Ilulissat sometimes need to round them up. Is this true? Was he lying to a gullible tourist? He didn't seem like he was joking around, so maybe HE believes it's true, but is it? I'm very curious about this. Thanks.
I know this has been asked in the past, but my previous go-to (Lloyds) is under new ownership and won't do it unless you buy the kit from them so I need a new solution. :(
I have an authentic (bought on MLS site) Resurgens kit that I'd like to get personalized, and the ATLUTD stores no longer have the blue letters and numbers. Can anyone recommend another resource to personalize an older kit like this? Many thanks.
OK, credit where it's due: Brooks customer service went above and beyond to solve a minor problem with a product today. I know we always complain about bad customer service from any brand, so I wanted to make sure I gave props. Solid company here. I'm a longtime customer but now I'm also a fan for life.
(and now that I have your attention, humble request: please unleash your designers for some bold looks in the next Ghosts!) :)
