5 Reasons I Loved Antarctica

Antarctica is definitely is a place of extremes, it will probably the most expensive holiday you go on (Antarctica cruise prices are very high!) I wanted to let you know some of the reasons you absolutely

This is one of my favourite things about visiting this beautiful place is the strangely diverse wildlife that is there. You would think that nothing would attempt to live there, but there are so many, such as penguins (and many different kinds), many kinds of seals, whales and countless other bird species. The unusual thing is that the wildlife is actually more relaxed and less scared by human presence than you would think. Penguins are one great example of this and they don’t seem phased by humans, some are even curious enough to approach. The best thing is that animals are just happy to do their own thing, which is something that you don’t see anywhere else on earth.

This is a blessing and a curse at the same time. Once you go to Antarctica, every trip you ever go on will be compared to Antarctica and how beautiful it is there. My bet is that you won’t ever see anything better or more amazing. Think of mountains, endless ice in various colours, glaciers and
