Iceland or bust?
I recently had read your Iceland article, and Nova Scotia. I wonder betwen Iceland, Greenland, or Nova Scotia which one is the most interesting, and which you would recomend for a vacation? I am very interested, thanks!

A very interesting article!
Greenland is such a fascinating place just by its sheer name. There's not too many articles on this big [ice] land named by the Norwegian explorer "Eric the Red" in the 10th to attract settlers. What's the population there now? Amazing how it's part of Denmark when it's closer to Canada or Iceland. The almost empty shelves of the store is a testament to the hardiness of its people. Greenland is not for the faint of hearts to live in. Hope to see it someday. Thanks!:)
