One year ago I had the privilege to spend a month exploring the continent of Antarctica. It was an amazing experience that opened my eyes to a land uninhabited by humans. I trekked across glaciers, walked by millions of penguins, kayaked with whales, and even spent a night on the ice in an igloo. I’ll never forget the views of the beautiful crystal waters, towering glaciers, and brash ice, or the smells and sights of the largest penguin colonies in the world. I came home with an enlightened perspective on an unseen part of the world and what we need to do in order to preserve it.
Why Can't Penguins Fly? Antarctica
One of the reasons I love visiting Antarctica and the Southern Hemisphere is because it is one of the few places in the world where you can see Penguins! South Georgia is an Island located in the Southern Hemisphere, just off the peninsula of Antarctica and is home to the largest King Penguin Colony in the world.
