North America >> Greenland >> Western Greenland

Western Greenland is in Greenland. This is the part of Greenland, you would probably think of, if you've only seen the typical media picture. Large icebergs floating in the ocean or dogsled trips across the ocean from one small settlement to another. Fish and sharkmeat hanging outside small colorful houses and the constant barking of dogs in the background.
