Disclamer
Title: “Noorderlicht”
Jan was 52 when he finally made the decision. For years he had dreamed of a real expedition: a journey to the north, to deserted fjords, drifting ice floes, and quiet waters where time seemed to stand still. He sold his house, quit his job, and bought a heavily built catch-rigged two-masted vessel: a classic sailing yacht with a robust hull and a story.
The ship was named Noorderlicht, and seemed built for rough work. The hull was thick and sturdy, fully insulated against polar cold, with double glazing and a wood stove that kept the inside always cozy. Jan further modified the ship with solar panels, a water maker, and a reinforced rudder. Not a luxury yacht, but a reliable partner for solitude and cold.
In May, he departed from the Netherlands, heading north. Out of the Wadden Sea, along the rugged Norwegian coast, and then crossing over to Iceland. There he stayed briefly in Ísafjörður, a small fishing village nestled among the mountains, where he stocked up on provisions and checked the ship.
At the end of June, he crossed over to Greenland. For days there was no sign of life except for the growl of the wind, the cries of seagulls, and the cracking of the ice. The Noorderlicht held up bravely. Thanks to the insulation, Jan felt no cold — inside it was warm, dry, and quiet. Outside was a different world: glaciers, silence, and occasionally the puffing of a whale in the distance.
In a deserted bay, he anchored alone for days, under a sky full of stars and northern lights. He wrote, he looked, he lived.
He was not looking for anything — but found everything.
