The Overland Adventure of a Lifetime Begins

Published at : 23 Dec 2025

Located on top of the world is one of the Earths smallest, shallowest and most hostile waters, the Arctic Ocean. This otherworldly landscape with its endless polar nights and 24 hours days of sun in the summer has captivated my imagination for years. This year I decided to stop dreaming and embark on a month-long expedition to reach the Arctic Ocean. I’m joined by my good friend Shaun on this expedition and together we face some major challenges, breathtaking moments, and this promises to be the adventure of a lifetime. It's day 4 of my overland adventure to the Arctic Circle...
