Guided trip
Hello! I'm an archeologist and art historian. My trips are base on photography. Who want to join my trips will learn how to take good photos. In Iceland part we will cook at home together or eat easy dinner. We can buy something all together and share for dinner and breakfast in Iceland only. In 2023, I will make the second of a very special photography trip, where we will see the Greenland glaciers, wander around them, and even take magnificent photos by boat. How many times in your life do you have the opportunity to see an iceberg up close? This trip is a boutique trip with only 5 people. It will be a very enjoyable and very different photography trip, like our first trip in 2022. You will find yourself in a white fairy tale. If we're lucky, we'll have a chance to see northern light and shoot the lights. There is also the possibility of seeing whales. The type of photography will be mainly spectacular landscapes. We will share the rooms with a roommate. We will have our cook and our own boat, 8 meters long. Every day we will go to different directions with boat. We will visit Rasmussen Iceberg, an abandoned American base, a village by the side of an iceberg, we take photo of Inuits. It will be one of your unforgettable trips.
