Taken North

Even in this northernmost city, we have a taxi service which helps us around during winter storms and getting us to and from the airport to escape the cold and snow. Wiggo Antonsen is one of these drivers and joins us to share his experience as 'The Northernmost Famous Taxi Driver in the World'! After being featured on the BBC TV Series 'Ice Town: Life on the Edge' he has fallen into celebrity life. Each week tourists recognize him as one of their favourite personalities from the series, asking for selfies and quoting him on his tour of Longyearbyen's history, stories, and forty-two kilometers stretch of road.  If you enjoy this episode please leave a review and subscribe! takennorth.com facebook.com/takennorth
