We’ve finally made it after two and half years of planningLongyearbyen is the world’s northernmost settlement (with population greater than 1,000) and largest inhabited area of SvalbardNorway.

 

Preparations in full swing, one day to go! 

 Prepare, pack, sort…. repeat.

Our Svalbard expedition is 21 days,we must have everything we could possibly need packed in our sled and ready to go.

Can you imagine what the preparation will be like for a 110-day crossing of Antarctica?
