The Sami have a few more seasons as most of us have: eight in total. One of them is Tjaktja, the early autumn which lasts roughly from September to October. It’s the time when the beautiful autumn colours come and go, the Reindeer come down from the fjälls and the first Aurora’s can be seen ..read more

While I was guiding this summer in Eastern Greenland (more on that in a later blog), I really hoped to see and finally photograph the beautiful white Arctic Hare. I did see them several times, however never had the opportunity to photograph them (as usual…). So I was really happy when I saw a Mountain ..read more

After last night, the expectations were high this night. Or well … it can’t possibly as good as the previous night, can it? The predictions looked good though, both solar activity and the clouds seemed to be good. So after dinner, we already started packing and putting on some warmer clothes, so we were ready ..read more

After some initial Auroral ‘sparks’, something happened even I had never seen before. The whole sky turned green! And not only green, but also red and pink. All different colours that can be visible in the northern lights were there. We had no idea where to look, as it was spectacular all around us. The ..read more

On the first full day of our stay in Sweden we headed out for a nice hike through the Abisko National Park. We first had a look at Abiskojåkka canyon, where the river makes its way through a nice canyon to the lake. After this, we set off on the beginning (or end) of Sweden’s ..read more

They often say one picture can say more as a thousand words, so I’ll keep it short with these two pictures. They are both of the Kronebreen in Kongsfjord, Spitsbergen, taken from more or less the same position. One on 15 July 2015, the second one on 16 July 2022. See for yourself: climate change ..read more

And then, just after midnight on our last day, there they were! Somewhere along the edge of the fjord ice in Nordfjorden a mother and cub were walking and a bit further another female. In the middle of the night (ah well, this far north the sun doesn’t set anyway), but that didn’t keep us ..read more

As we had no (or little) success in the south, we turned our vessel north. The ice charts show that there was a lot of ice in the North-west corner and that we would only be able to explore a little of the pack ice edge on the northern side of the west coast, but ..read more

Finally! I’m back! Back where I belong, back in the place where I feel at home, back in the high Arctic! The past two years were the first two years in many that I didn’t get to see Spitsbergen. Due to the pandemic, almost all expedition cruises were canceled, which made it very difficult for ..read more
