Life on 7
Antarctica for most is an opportunity to check off the seventh continent; to fall within the less than one percent of humans to ever walk on all seven continents. What you do not know until you’ve had the good fortune to go is how Antarctica changes your life. You’ve been told of the massive glaciers and the penguin-shredding leopard seals, but what you aren’t told is that you are about to embark on a voyage with one-hundred and twenty strangers with no cell phone service. In exceptionally close quarters, you’ll bond over career choices and failed relationships. You’ll be inspired by the effort it took fellow passengers to make it to Antarctica. You’ll find yourself intoxicated by the charisma that can only be found on a ship full of determined humans en route to pursing one of many dreams they’ll inevitably conquer. I could tell you about humpbacks and zodiacs or the immeasurable satisfaction of climbing to the top of Canessa Point, but that would not do justice to the journey. Anta
