Antarctica: 7 Continents in 7 Years and All Before 30

This is an incredibly special moment that I’d love to share with you all. It’s been almost 7 years since I began travelling and this year, I finally reached my goal of every continent before 30

After spending a few days in Antarctica visiting several islands (including camping on one) the day in this video was the moment I officially stepped on to the Antarctic peninsula and my 7th continent.

It was extraordinary – bluebird skies and wispy white clouds, whales breaching in the bay, penguins hiking alongside me and the most incredible views over the harbour. It could not have been more perfect and exactly as I had dreamed.

Travel has changed my life in so many ways. It has changed ME. I wouldn’t be a tenth of the person I am today without the experiences and lessons learned since I left on that first journey back in the fall of 2010. And what I’ve discovered is that what you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.

To travel, self-discovery and the world – cheers!
