A solo travel journey - a trekking tour, an inner quest to myself. A climbing adventure through South Greenland in August & September 2018. “I’d like to move. But I can’t. The ice holds me back. Watching infinite beauty for hours. Watch it changing, the shape and colours. I don’t feel anything but great respect. The ice: It quickly draws the eyes under its magic spell. A thousand years it takes to form. A thousand years it takes to move. A thousand years to arrive. I am deeply impressed by the performance of my body and by its rapid adaption to the terrain. Deeply inspired by the landscapes and the lights. I walked between 4.3 billion year old rocks, sometimes covered by the magnificent ice cap. The aurora was above me. Rays seem to touch the earth like an ancient enchanted blessing. Like needles, they descended. Sometimes like blades. One can hear those very strange sounds as long as they dance. A strange noise. Something between the buzz of bees and wind chimes. The stones around me, charged by those lights for thousands of years. Me, so tiny. A blink of an eye in the history of this mountain ridge. I spent hours to watch the stones move, its merger and decay. I had hours listening to the tales from wind and fire. Although I’ve been hurt sometimes, I feel fully alive now. Completely satisfied. My present attention is remarkable and there’s a deep boundary between me and my body. It feels damn good to have it.” A.A.
