What happens when you thought your destiny would take you closer to the equator to a Spanish-speaking country, and then discover that your heart is actually in remote, chilly, and wild Greenland? Our guest on the podcast today is Sarah Woodall, a Paraguayan-born naturalized US citizen who was raised in Washington DC and found her way to Greenland on an internship.

As it turns out, Sarah would not be returning to the US. Rather she has settled in the southern Greenland town of Qaqortoq - population 3000 - and learned the local language, taking a job at the tourism board.

Sarah shares her wildly interesting and unusual life in this remote Arctic outpost through visual storytelling on her Instagram feed, but today we're getting to the story behind her stories.

Check out episode 8 of AntArctic stories and let us know what you think!
