Tell us about the expedition team
Superior. Stephanie our historian was stellar. Karyssa our marine biologist was stellar. Noah our ornithologist was stellar. Norm our geologist was stellar. I cannot believe we had all of these fabulous experts on our trip. Ryan our expedition leader worked tirelessly for us to see the most and make the most of the fast-changing weather. His knowledge and prior experience allowed us to get the most from our trip. Other presenters and team members: Tara gave a great presentation on her journey around Svalbard. Yun our photographer made a fabulous video for us of the trip. Very Very good. Yuki our Yamaha engine charmer keep any stubborn engine in line. Valerie was fun and lent her knowledge and experience to us. Amalia and Michele were great supporters of the team. There are a couple more whose names I cant think of that were memorable.
