I can’t place one moment as the most memorable because this trip was so incredible and had many unbelievably amazing moments. Highlights were watching humpbacks breach in Bancroft bay, seeing a pod of orcas swim under the boat while crossing the straight, paddling with penguins and seals, taking a polar plunge in paradise bay, and seeing a rainbow over the towers in Torres del Paine.

Seeing the icebergs for the first time and seeing penguins! Seeing orcas and a breaching humpback whale was also memorable, too many things to pick from! But I think mostly waking up to our first day in Antarctica and realising we had made it by seeing the snow!

Seeing the Antarctic Ice for the first time, the first Iceberg, the lighting contrast between the mountains of rock and the glaciers, the whales, the seals, the penguins...... Oh, and scuba diving in what I stated above, seeing it first person. Really special!

There were so many! Seeing the outline of the peninsula for the first through the fog. Going out in the zodiac and feeling true cold! And of course, meeting so many of my penguins 🐧 friends! I couldn’t take enough pictures and videos of them! Even the couple days of rough seas couldn’t dampen the enthusiasm Thank you for making this amazing trip possible 🥰

One morning in particular stands out. It was a cooler morning zodiac cruise expedition, where I got to observe juvenile penguins get the zoomies around and on and off an iceberg. For the full circle of life experience, I also got to witness a leopard seal hunting a penguin. Once back on the boat I hopped into the hot tub to warm up, shortly after I got into the hot tub I saw a humpback whale breach a little ways off the boat. It was a surreal morning.

Arriving on the Antarctic Peninsula was a breathtaking moment that will stay with me forever. Standing there, you instantly feel incredibly small against the immense grandeur of nature—the towering icebergs, endless glaciers, and vast icy landscapes humble you, reminding us just how tiny we are on this planet. ​The beauty is magical and exceptional; every day brought jaw-dropping views that stirred deep emotions, leaving me in awe of its pristine wilderness. Antarctica made me acutely aware of our planet's ancient transformations over time and the urgent need to protect it—especially this extraordinary place, before it's too late.
