QUOTE(mystalyzer @ Dec 14 2023, 03:28 AM) Dinner in Svalbard Did you see any polar bears so far? I read that this place has more polar bears than human population.[attachmentid=11486968] [attachmentid=11486969]  |

QUOTE(mystalyzer @ Dec 14 2023, 02:58 PM) Not yet. Normally won't be able to see because only 1 party comes out alive if that happens This a real polar bear, right? Dead but not a fake replica. They do not organise any tours to see polar bears there?Fake one is everywhere though [attachmentid=11487021] |

Approach maybe a young lady donning itβ¦π€[attachmentid=11487097] Anyway, as tourist, it is nice to strike a chat with the locals over a drink or two. Can get a lot of tips and information about local lives and peculiarities. |

QUOTE(PATAR @ Dec 16 2023, 03:38 AM) Svalbard is known as a place where nobody is born and almost nobody dies. Expecting mothers are flown to mainland to give birth. There are no homes for the elderly. When you retire you move somewhere else. It's a place where you either work or study. Interesting. So there are practically no crematorium/graves there then. Eye opener knowledge for me. I learn something new today. Thanks. ππππ |

QUOTE(mystalyzer @ Dec 16 2023, 03:55 AM) Whole city only 2k people. It's a harsh environment. I haven't had a drop of sunlight in Svalbard at all in my 2 days there. Can cover the city centre on foot in like 5-10 mins I wonder what is the suicide rate there? I read somewhere Finland has high suicide rate because they have sunless days. |
