Our rental house in Kuummiut

Has made a long pause in blogging, I moved into my little house as you can see below ... I have not had internet connection for many days ... And I've been sick for almost one week ... But now I'm soon fit for fight again....To all the people who have emailed me in recent times: Sorry, but I have not had the opportunity to respond ... Once I have time I will email to you :-)

Our little house in late September ... freshly painted and renovated....
The house in April 2009 ... The house has not been painted for many years ....

Living room ... the house is heated with electric radiators and paraffin stove ... Even if it freezes many degrees oven heats the whole house ... paraffin (keratine) is very cheap in Greenland...

Kitchen ... Here is the service for 6 people and everything needed for cooking....And baking....

A nice little window in the kitchen ... toward the east ... nice to see the sunrise in the morning ....

Our little house in Kuummiut

Next week I move into our little house ... The big house must be ready so there will hopefully soon move a new teacher in the house. My wife and daughter moved to Denmark in June ... I miss them very much, also my two big kids ... I will stop as a teacher at the school in Kuummiut 1st January 2010. So if you are a teacher trained and can teach English and Danish there is job here in Kuummiut contact our Principal Mikkel Boassen if you are interested kuumalivarpik@greennet.gl I move to Denmark with my family ... We keep our little house , we will spend our holidays here in Kuummiut....

Here is the little house as it looked when I bought the 1st April 2009 ... I do not think the house has been painted in 25 years ... Fortunately, rotting wood is not so easy in polar regions .....

There had been smashed 3 windows in the house when I bought it .. I bought new windows for the house and had them sent up by air freight from Denmark ...

House painted in September 2009 ... I think it's been a part prettier

I am delighted to move into the house ... It has also been renovated inside
