Spots at the moment are open to return and be a part of me on the journey of a lifetime to Antarctica – fill out the shape right here or beneath for extra particulars!
Exactly two months in the past, I boarded a flight to South America to begin some fairly epic adventures (together with a visit to Antarctica), very harking back to my previous(?) life as a tRAveLblOgGEr. I recurrently fixate on that title – does it nonetheless match me? Did it ever match me? I’m not fairly positive.
As I attempted to snuggle into one other long-haul red-eye (uncommon for me now), I may really feel how a lot of a unique individual I had turn out to be. That lady who hungered for achievement, cash, recognition, alternative, and extra, extra, MORE, was gone. But who had changed her? Well, that’s the query.
Climbing onboard the Ocean Endeavour on my approach again to Antarctica, internet hosting my first group journey there, I discovered myself smiling a lot. Without wifi or pings, surrounded by a number of the coolest and like-minded individuals in one in all my favourite locations, I started to mirror on what I needed transferring ahead with my life — extra of this, sure please.
To date, I’ve undertaken round seven polar expeditions around the globe, together with to Antarctica a number of instances, and I can simply say I’m obsessed. There is such a factor known as the polar bug, and I’ve received it dangerous. Additionally, when you undertake this sort of journey, it’s addicting.
Going on one journey to Antarctica was by no means sufficient for me; I need to share this profound and particular place with the world, inspiring others to turn out to be polar ambassadors and advocates for the pure world. My data and expertise of Antarctica are huge and solely rising.
In truth, this latest return journey to Antarctica solidified my long-held secret dream of coaching as an expedition information, greater than a tour information. As quickly as we returned to land, I hit up Chimu and Intrepid to say I used to be right down to host extra journeys. Let’s make it occur.
So if you happen to’ve ever dreamed of happening a visit to Antarctica, now’s your probability. I’ve received 5 extra voyages lined up for 2023 and 2024, with bookings now open (if you happen to’re eager to be taught extra, please fill out my expression of curiosity type on the finish of this put up to get the total scoop).
I’ve additionally received two longer voyages that embody South Georgia and the Falkland Islands/Las Malvinas (each of that are INSANE); for naturalists and chook nerds, nothing beats South Georgia.
And because of the entire bizarre journey fluctuations with COVID, a visit to Antarctica has by no means been cheaper with plenty of last-mI’mte offers. I’m guiding two journeys on the finish of this season in March, one to the Antarctic Peninsula and the opposite to Antarctica, South Georgia, and the Falklands. The spots are practically 50% off. I’m retaining my teams small and intimate, so spots are restricted.
I wish to say it is a group journey for individuals who don’t all the time do group journey. We go away by ship from Argentina (most journeys to Antarctica go this route), and it’s the sort of journey you may’t actually do solo because you’re on an expedition ship.
My favourite sorts of locations are wild locations, locations the place the panorama makes you’re feeling tiny and insignificant. These adventures are a great way to place your life into perspective and take into consideration what issues.
Personally, I did a lot deep considering and reflecting whereas in Antarctica. If you want an enormous change in your life or escape from the mania that grips us all, this journey is for you.
Hope to see you there!
