    It's true: Greenland and Iceland should really switch names, because they are polar opposites!!!
    Greenland is covered in ice and Iceland is covered in greenery. The people, culture, cuisine and lifestyle between the two places could not be any different -- pretty much everything is opposite except for the nature.
    As I reminisce on this final day of our AMAZING Hurtigruten expedition, I want to take a moment to compare and contrast Greenland and Iceland. We spent the first week was in Greenland, and the past 3 days sailing the Western coast of Iceland to the towns of Stykkishólmur and now Reykjavík.
    SPECIAL OFFER: Hurtigruten is offering you guys (and only you guys) a wonderful 25% OFF DISCOUNT if you want to visit Greenland in 2020 or 2021. Simply click on the below link, and do it soon cuz this offer ends in a week!

    Hey Drew. I was curious whether you'd been to Faroe Islands or not. So I searched for it and wrote your name and Faroe Islands, but got this video. Have you been to Faroe Islands? It's not so far away from Iceland or Greenland, and they are "almost" neighbors. Technically it belongs to Denmark, but they are quite independent in plenty of different areas and make their own decisions. I'd say more than Greenland.

    The reason Greenland has their name was because when the vikings first came there, they came to the very southern coast of Greenland. Back then the south coast of Greenland was warmer and more green. Also they wanted to populate the place so they gave it an attractive name.
