When I tell people I landed a kitchen job in Antarctica for the austral summer, 2023-2024 they either look at me wide-eyed and ask “Why?” as in “Why the hell would you do that?” or they light up and say, “Wow, that’s amazing!” and then pelt me with questions.
I’ve had like eighteen signs over the past few months that I’m supposed to go to Antarctica (also perused cruises and definitely cannot afford that -- my plan is to try for an artist grant). I’m completely obsessed, cannot stop thinking about it. I have no idea when I followed you on Instagram but tonight this post showed up when I opened it and it feels like another sign. I’m so excited for how far you’ve gotten with this and can’t wait to follow along on your adventure!!
When I heard you were going my immediate reaction was "wow, how fucking cool!!!" combined with the teeniest pang of jealousy. (I'd never pass the PQ...) I'm sorry I couldn't make the party tonight -- I'm on a flight home from Sydney right now -- but I'm thrilled you're doing this substack. Good luck and stay warm!

Thanks, Karen! Great to see David. You were missed.
I love everything about this and am thrilled you are sharing tidbits. Thank you, Cree!
Congrats!! It is my dream to work in Antarctica. I will follow your adventure!
