Something Else?

Do you have any tips or advice for other people planning a trip to Antarctica?
Don't overpack, Drake Passage is no joke - prepare your body, sign up for activities earlier in the trip
Has your experience changed your perspective in any way?
New awareness towards human interference with wildlife in Antarctica and climate change
Do you have any recommendations for Swoop, or feedback about the team?
A bit more consistency between swoop members about what to pack - ex: someone said they we definitely don't need snow googles then another person was saying that you'd use them on the zodiacs. It would've been helpful for them to explain their perspectives a bit more for us to make decisions.
