Lurching through five-meter swells as the Antarctic dream fades into a 6/10 Drake. A day of flying coffee, career dilemmas, and the rough reality of the sea.
Antarctic Peninsula – Day 1: The Icy Continent
Stepping onto the black gravel of Half Moon Island. A world of waddling penguins and camouflaged seals, where the snow falls softly over the ghosts of whalers.

Surviving the Furious Fifties where there is no law and no God. A day of flying plates, drunken walks, and the steel violence of the most powerful sea on Earth.
Drake Passage – Day 1: Crossing the Threshold
Stepping onto the red ship that will carry us into the unknown. A farewell to Ushuaia and a first glimpse of a humpback whale as the edge of the world recedes.
