Did you miss my Like an iceberg series on being a journalist in the Arctic during the 1990s?
It’s been five years since I started this Date with Siku girl blog, and I’m sure many have no idea this series which I wrapped up in the spring of 2013 exists.
In Like an iceberg, I talk about an exorcism, brain surgery with a hand drill, robins in Iqaluit and a visit to the High Arctic’s fossil forest — as well as some big issues like censorship of the press, sexual abuse and violence.
There are also many photos you won’t see anywhere else…
So, here are all the links — and relive those times with me.
