Inspire Antarctic Exhibition

To travel to Antarctica has been my dream for a long time, up there together with travel to the space - equally inspiring and seemingly impossible. I've read enough good classic travel and science fiction books to imagine the places,, and incredibly enough, just 10-15 years later - now - it is possible for a normal person to do both. It's amazing.

Of course, you must have something like $10 million dollars or so to fly to the space, which is still beyond reach for most of people, but it is POSSIBLE.

I have also learned that there are flights to Antarctica - in fact, from Australia, and it's not too expensive, only you don't land - and there are tourist expeditions departing from Argentina. I guess capitalism is good, it enables, in fact motivates, many discoveries.

And today I have learned about a perfect opportunity. It's a project with an international team, in the area of leadership and sustainability, and it's an expedition in the Antarctic.

A girl I know is going on that expedition, and suddenly it becomes so real because people I know are doing it. I'm jealous, but I'm so happy with the power of the international network that let me learn about this project.

Very exciting :)
