It’s hard to convey how surreal and alien #Svalbard looks, especially in this pitch black time of year. So a series of photos will have to do.

In case you’re wondering what this Star Wars looking structure is, it’s the Global Seed Vault. Countries from all over the world deposit duplicates of their native seeds for agriculture here, so in the case of a catastrophic event, they can restart their farming - Syria has already claimed over 100 boxes it had previously deposited since the start of the war.

So when the apocalypse comes (I figure we have 3-4 months left) you can thank Svalbard for all your future food needs. #losethemap #spitsbergen #longyearbyen #globalseedvault #visitsvalbard
