My favourite thing about travel is experiencing different cultures, trying the traditional food and meeting like-minded travellers. I love the way cruising allows you to unpack only once and explore so many different destinations.

My favourite destination

Antarctica!

I found my new favourite way of cruising - expedition cruising! You can explore some of the most remote places on Earth and also receive an educational experience as there are lectures on board. Expedition ships are generally smaller ships with less passengers and the atmosphere on board tend to be more relaxed. Off the ship on the other hand is an active adventure where you can kayak, hike and go for a Zodiac cruises.

My top cruising tip

If you're going to the colder regions such as Antarctica don't forget lots of layers, they are more important than you may think!
