How do you pack for a trip around the world?

2

00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:08,350

I needed to pack for winter in Greenland,

3

00:00:08,350 --> 00:00:12,450

and so I brought layers and layers and layers of stuff.

4

00:00:12,450 --> 00:00:16,550

I didn’t bring anything big and heavy and bulky, because we don’t have room for that on the airplane.

5

00:00:16,550 --> 00:00:20,680

But the layers worked just fine. Also, when we were there,

6

00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,890

the temperature was between zero and minus 20 Fahrenheit

7

00:00:24,890 --> 00:00:28,990

which is kind of a beach day in Thule,

8

00:00:28,990 --> 00:00:33,090

so we were kind of lucky there and we were comfortable. And I brought boots

9

00:00:33,090 --> 00:00:37,320

instead of running shoes so that my feet weren’t cold on the airplane all the time.

10

00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:41,440

That was the one thing I was really missing last time because the aircraft is kept at

11

00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:45,660

between I guess about 60-ish degrees, which if you’re sitting there not moving

12

00:00:45,660 --> 00:00:49,830

can actually get quite cold, and the gradient in the temperature is really strong.

13

00:00:49,830 --> 00:00:53,960

So the air at your feet is freezing,

14

00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:58,050

and last time round my feet were constantly cold, so this time, I wore boots.
