Spotted our first reindeer! We spent a few hours exploring Longyearbyen and this regal fellow was munching beside the road completely unbothered by people and the cars.

Do you want a trip where bo***es are the highlight?

I recently spent time in Quito and the Galapagos and yes the wildlife access was spectacular but the passion and pride that the Ecuadorian people showed for this special place was infectious. I really came away from this experience wishing everyone around the world valued their wildlife and nature the same way.

There is a reason the Galapagos is high on most people’s bucket list, the playful sea lions, famous blue footed bo***es and wild landscape but the secret? Well you will have to log in to find out…..
Join me at 7:30pm EST May 7th for a virtual webinar where I will be joined by HX business development manager Ian Kivell and share our experience and what it is like to sail with HX to these extraordinary islands. Registeration link in my bio.

The “A” of the ABC islands stands for Aruba and today we took a tour away from the beaches and resorts to see life on the island. Starting with a tour of an aloe farm, I was surprised by how arid Aruba is. This theme continued through the day, with ATVs and beautiful beaches easily available, make this your next island vacation.
