The challenge
22nd March, 2008At the beginning of the expedition i was challenged by the team leaders not to go online Hill the end of the expedition. Now I spend around 9 hours average a day online so it was quite a hard challenge to take on.
The first days at Ushuaia I was running up and down helping out and I noticed how much time some people would spend behind the pc sending e-mails and such. It made me realize what a waste of time it could be.
Especially students that send so much time behind the pc don’t even notice what’s going on around them and they miss out on great things like actually experiencing nature. If you weren’t always behind the pc you would notice how the natural environment around you is being destroyed. And if you don’t notice that; when the time comes to decided the future of Antarctica in 2041 when you might be a leader, will you really care?
Don’t let that happen, get active and get involved. Cause in the end it’s in your hands

Hi Jc, Was the Easter Bunny good to you in Antarctica? Or, was it more like a close encounter with the Easter Penguino? In any case, I’m sure all of the encounters with the inhabitants of Antarctica have been amazing! Jc will never be the same… looking forward to seeing you all soon! Hugs, Barbara!
