After years of preparation and months of sailing we have arrived in Greenland! It's all new as we take our very first steps in this unknown land and explore the town of Paamiut. Of course, just when we're settling in for the night we get a knock on the hul...
After sailing through the North Atlantic, we've made landfall in Greenland and now it's time to explore. It's our first full day in Paamiut, a town unknown to us, and everything is different and new...luckily we get a little help from a new friend to show ...
We had been in Paamiut for a couple of days and still had yet to meet anyone from the town. That would all change with a knock on Paragon's hull.

With no roads connecting towns, airports can be the blood line of Greenland by helping to connect different areas and allowing people to travel. We met Niels, one of the managers of the airport, and he offered to give us a tour of this remote, but highly e...
What to do when you have a ton of fresh salmon and no more space in the freezer? Why, use a pressure cooker to can it, of course! Drake goes through the steps for canning meat, and then shares a delicious Salmon Chowder recipe at the end. Want to recreate...
When we sailed to Greenland we knew very little about the country despite doing much research. However, our new friends at the airport in Paamiut sat down with us and took the time to talk about their experiences growing up in this remote Arctic county.

Three years in the making and all of our preparation led to this moment...pushing off for Svalbard! 1100 nautical miles held more than a few surprises as the weather window we had hoped for evaporated. Join us on the beginning of this epic journey!

After 12 days at sea through rough weather, the hard part is over...or is it. Our arrival in Svalbard takes a turn, literally, and we're suddenly facing 20 knots of wind in an unfamiliar harbour.
We have been working very hard on our next Greenland episo...
A blue sky day takes a turn, or should I say takes a dive, and leaves the crew scrambling to find Harry, and an unexpected visitor leaves Èanna and Mo on edge.

For us, cruising is not just about the sailing or the places we visit, but very much about the people we meet along the way. Jan was one of the first people we met in Paamiut and was a great help during our first days in Greenland. Little did we know of th...

Being exposed to new cultures makes us think about our own experiences growing up and how we live...both what is similar and what is different. It makes us think, and grow, and often change our perspective as we're introduced to new ideas. Another day in P...
The longer we stay in Paamiut the harder it is to leave, especially as we meet more and more people in town. What a change from the first day we arrived! Walking down the street we're greeted by people and, thanks to Éanna and his new friends, we starting...
Why did we sail all the way to Greenland? Was it to see an iceberg? Grab a cool photo of a whale or maybe a musk ox? How about filming some striking landscapes? Nope. For us, it's all about the people. Meeting people, connecting with them and, hopefully, b...
We had no idea that when we sailed in to Paamiut, Greenland that we would be welcomed so warmly, however the time has come to continue our journey south. With blue skies and calm conditions it looks as though we'll have a relaxing day...or will we? A coupl...
It's our first sail since arriving in Greenland and it's a challenge right from the start. Rolly conditions coupled with Ice Of Unusual Size or IOUS (Princess Bride anyone...anyone?) keep us on edge. Then comes the fog. Now we just need to keep clear of th...

We've experienced a lot of firsts while sailing in Greenland. First cocktail with ice from a glacier, first anchorage, first iceberg...wait, what? We've seen icebergs before, you say? We've never seen an iceberg like this one...wait until you see what happ...
