For Greenland
When I first heard of the name Greenland,
what came to my mind was the big whitest island displayed at the very right top of a Mercator Projection map.
What types of people live in such an island... what exactly is out there...
Having received help and support from various sources,
gradually the white Greenland began to color itself bit by bit.
It is almost time for departure.
What will be the color of her skies like?
What about the faces of its people?
The smells of her breeze?
The texture of the air?
Countless surprises and encounters await me.
I am simply thrilled to find out how the next three months will unfold,
in what colors and how, on the huge canvas called the Greenland.
