    Description

    I’m from Greenland, and even though there’s a lot going on politically right now, my daily life is actually very normal. I live a quiet, everyday life like most people here.

    Because of the current situation, I don’t want my place to be about politics or curiosity tourism. I’m not hosting people who come just because of what’s happening between Greenland and the US or its president.

    You’re very welcome if you’re interested in being part of my everyday life, helping out, sharing routines, conversations, and simple moments. This stay is about daily life, not the political situation.
    Thanks for understanding 🇬🇱

    Hi! My name is Ellen. I live in a small town called Qaqortoq. I have a spare room and would love to host travelers who are coming to South Greenland to experience our beautiful country. I appreciate guests who are respectful, open-minded, and enjoy sharing everyday life together. I spend time with my nieces and love to hang out with friends 😁

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Travellers can benefit from a cultural exchange by experiencing daily life here in a genuine and personal way. It’s not just about visiting a place, but about sharing meals, conversations, and traditions. They can learn how we cook, celebrate, and relax, and at the same time share their own culture with me.

    I don’t have any specific tasks that need to be done in the house, but it would be lovely to host a guest who enjoys cooking and doesn’t mind helping a bit with cleaning.

    I’d be happy to help you discover experiences and activities that you’d enjoy during your stay.

    ✈️ Just a heads-up — it’s a good idea to check flight prices before deciding to go to Southgreenland. You usually fly from Copenhagen to Nuuk first, then take a smaller plane from Nuuk to Narsarsuaq. From there, you’ll need to take either a boat or a helicopter to my town, Qaqortoq.

    ❌ I’m allergic to perfume. 🙅🏻‍♀️
