When I put in a "worldwide remote" request for my first duty station I was really choosing one of two places: Thule, Greenland or San Fernando, Philippines. I'm glad I know Tagalog instead of fifty ways to say snow.
Its funny how they named Greenland (Thule) and Iceland (keflavic)... You'd think Greenland was nice and tropical... and taht Iceland would be the frozen tundra year-round... not the case at all.. its totally opposite... Iceland is very green... and greenland is very icy :hahahaha:
I served in the AF for 9 years and had friends that were stationed in both locations... there's a story behind the naming of those places but I don't remember the details...
