The real reason for this particular blog starting is to try and chronicle going to the far northern arctic and living there, what its like there, what the people there are like, and how me and my wife will live and survive and hopefully thrive there.
Our journey begins in a few weeks as we sever ties, pay bills, muster resources, and figure out what all we'll be able to pack and manage to take with us on our flight and what we will have to ship. Suffice it to say, current airline regulations make this difficult. Canadian border services makes it more difficult and our destination raises the bar to make this a fairly massive undertaking even with just the warm clothes we'll be taking.
Wife has been as detail oriented as ever, checking everything repeatedly. We should be booking tickets tonight and I will likely be trying to convince her to join me in our last cheap abundant buffet style chinese food smorgasborg in The Colony we may get for what could be years to come. Knowing her prediliction for chinese food this shouldn't be a chore to convince her. It will only be a chore in the sense of finding time in the midst of selling our last few big items (read: car) before we make our trek.
Look out Iqaluit, here we come.
