By Malik Milfeldt

Malik has traveled extensively in Greenland and visited many towns and settlements, from Siorapaluk in the high North to Ittoqqortoormiit in East Greenland. He grew up in the dogsled district - the scenic iceberg capital of Ilulissat, and coined the town's nickname 'Ilovelissat'. He believes that the real reason the country is called Greenland is due to the aurora borealis that dances over the sky from September to April.
