Robert has joined these expeditions:
What skills do you bring to the job?
"An absolute magnetism for adventure, sold communication skills, agility in a Zodiac and a zest for sharing knowledge about glaciers, icebergs and historic geology."
What keeps you coming back season after season?
"Meeting people from around the world! Knowing that every time I step on a ship, it's going to be a completely different experience even if we are going to the same place. The mind-blowing scale of the Antarctic and the Arctic!"
Robert's advice for Polar Travelers
"Just do it! You'll see and experience things that will definitely change not only your outlook on life itself, but it will change you personally knowing that you have visited one of the most remote areas on our planet!"
