Robert's Ramblings

Seven years ago, a good friend invited me to, and introduced me to, one of the most extraordinary places on Earth I’ve ever experienced: Skjervøy, Norway. This place, well into the Arctic, is as brutal as it is beautiful, and full of life.

My first experience of the Norwegian fjords around Skjervøy was filled with the wonder of humpback whales, orcas, shared experiences, and new friendships. On returning to Australia, I knew I’d be back.

Well, here I am again, with new Irish friends, a new plan, and already the Norwegian welcome from the marine locals has been amazing. Even though the days are very short here, only a few hours, we’re spending time with humpback whales, with the orcas, and with each other.
