“On the last expedition, when the sun was setting, we sat in the base camp looking out over a fjord packed with a million tons of thousands of years old ice. Our dinner was cooking, dark rum was warming our bodies, and two humpback whales were playing right in front of us.

There is no small talk in a situation like this; you talk on a different level; we call it “big talk.” You talk about passion, fear, love, and other topics that make a difference.

The incredible raw nature performs as a catalyst for us to see things differently. Back home in civilization, we can easily become blind. Out there, it’s something else. You return as a changed human inspired to do the right thing.”
