What is it like Living in Greenland?

Greenland is likely to evoke mental pictures of polar bears, icebergs, the northern lights, and Inuit culture and lifestyle. We think you'll appreciate this northern gem as much as we do. People's perceptions of Greenland are often incorrect, and we hope this video may dispel some of those myths. How about we get going?
Everyday Food.
Greenlanders often eat a lot of canned goods, as well as canned fish, potatoes, and vegetables. Many Inuit tribes also rely heavily on seal and polar bear meat. Incredible dining options can be found all around the western coast of Greenland. While that may be true, it is not well known. Greenlandic delicacies are often reserved for the most discerning of diners (unless you happen to be Inuit), leading many to get a false idea of the cuisine outside of Greenland.
An Infinite Supply of Sunlight
Learn what it's like to have sunshine on your face for all 24 hours of the day. Just picture yourself seeing the sun "set" (it does not truly set) and then rising again an hour later. Greenland's summers are nonstop celebrations.
What it's like to live in Greenland and learn about its culture and music
The Greenlandic people have always placed a high value on the arts, both historically and now. With such a small population, Greenland is home to a surprisingly robust music culture, with several performers garnering worldwide acclaim.
Greenlandic literature began with the oral transmission of Greenland's rich oral tradition of myths and stories. Many of these have been memorialized in print and are readily available at this time.
While Greenlanders have a long history of performing for one another, it wasn't until 1984 that a professional theater company was founded, and it wasn't until 2011 that the country's first theater school opened.
Greenland is home to a rich history of craftsmanship. Greenlanders traditionally wear colorful woolen knitwear (anoraks) and handcrafted boots (kamiks). Fur and sealskins have been vital to Greenlanders' survival in the north for centuries, but in recent years, Greenlandic design has exploded, reaching new levels of creativity by fusing worldwide and Greenlandic fashions with the inventive use of fur and skin goods.
Fundamental Economic Principles
Standard of living and unemployment in Greenland are on par with those in mainland Europe (officially about 10 percent in the mid-1990s, with the public sector accounting for almost two-thirds of all jobs). While its GDP is more than $1 billion each year, the Danish government provides almost half of its budgetary support. The Greenlandic economy experienced a downturn in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Recent years have had budget surpluses and low inflation, but there is rising concern that overfishing may soon cause severe fisheries depletion. Small, remote Inuit communities in northern and eastern Greenland rely heavily on subsistence hunting for food and clothing (mainly polar bear and seal furs). Some Inuit communities have also profited from the International Whaling Commission's (IWC) recent decision to offer Greenland special authority to participate in limited "aboriginal subsistence whaling."
Literature, Music, Art, and All Other Humanities Topics
Help for the Creative Sector. Greenland's artistic and literary communities get some funding from the government since the Greenlandic and Danish governments recognize the value of the arts in attracting tourists. However, the Inuit communities' robust creative history is by far the most important factor in the ongoing survival of Greenlandic arts.
Literature.
Inuit mythologies and moral codes, as well as the connection between the Inuit and the animals (seal, bear, walrus, whale, fox, etc.) on which they depended for existence, have long been central to Greenland's rich oral storytelling heritage (stories and songs). The most accomplished exponents of this art form are still held in high regard in Greenlandic society. While the tradition of writing and reading is still developing in Greenland, it is becoming more and more widespread.

One should probably go to Greenland to learn about its customs and traditions. "Rely heavily on Polar Bear meat" ??? What!? 54 years and I've never eaten polar bear meat, neither has anyone in my family. Actually I don't know anyone who has eaten polar bear meat.

@@andilandia_1979 I remember in the early 80s that they said that they were down to about 5-10,000, and they got protected. Hunters were only allowed to kill one per year. Now they say that there are 25,000+ in the Arctic region. My family from the Disko Bay area and to Arsuk in the south have never gone hunting for bears. If they get close to the town they are easily scared away with loud noises from a firecracker or a shotgun. Also I remember being told as a kid that if we were to eat polar bear meat it would have to cook for at least 24 hours as it could be poisonous if not. I don't know how much truth there was in this but that's what we were told.

a must have in England is the colour Beige which is also a very popular for the exterior of houses with cement render ( which is very many ) although it’s titled Gardinia for some reason. My gripe is , given that 7 months of the year the climate can be bleak & unlike Greenland here & the Northern European neighbours , the English aren’t keen on bright or strong colours for outdoors leading to months of grey skies & beige homes everywhere you look. Fact in my district of southern England for 3 miles of constant roadside homes only 3 aren’t beige or white …

They were victims of the climate change, in this regard to the worse which took place around 800 yrs ago, with icier times and no chance to feed even one cow through out the winter. But actually the vikings where victims of the Church, whose missions prohibited them to adopt Inuit survival techniques as being stamped as heathen and uncultivated.
