“Being invited on this expedition is a chance that maybe only occurs once in a lifetime and it is a dream come true for me. Growing up seeing all the photos and maps from my Dad’s various expeditions with the Arctic Research Group during 30 years, I’ve always wanted to go and explore this rare place.
This expedition will not only give me experience with research and exploration, while also looking outstanding on any application for jobs or post-grads. But it is also a fleeting chance to see the high arctic in its undisturbed state before factors like climate change, pollution and increased shipping traffic begin to damage this rare place even more”.
