Uummannaq Town, Greenland, Houses Placed for the View Rather Than Convenience


Location, location, location! What's the most important thing when buying a house?

The thing I never really understood is why use more wood than goes into the house itself building steps to go up to the house? It must be a real drag carrying up everything too, and all the garbage down as well. I hope the views are worth it.
