  • I travelled to Antarctica on an 11 day expedition aboard the Ocean Endeavour.
    In this second episode we are greeted with perfect weather as we explore around in zodiacs and kayaks, encountering whales, seals and plenty of penguins.
    On board the Ocean Endeavour we enjoy a sunset BBQ, cruise past huge icebergs, and there's a special surprise on my 40th birthday.
