Hi,

the 8th time on Svalbard, the 7th time enjoying the Polarjazz Festival. This year with a very special concert because of the 100th anniversary of the "Svalbard Treaty" (Svalbardtraktaten).

Well known artist Bugge Wesseltoft from Norway was responsible for the musical part.

The whole concert was a once-in-a-life-time experience with an extraordinary light and film show and many other top artists.

This year I stayed there for 6 days, had one trip (with snow scooter) into the „void“.

31.01.2025 12:59 At „Elveneset“. We were very lucky that the sun gave us some beams in the south. Nevertheless at that time of the year you'll never see the sun over the horizon.

It is a very special place on the planet.
