Like most of the world, I’ve been stunningly stationary for the past 18 months - so it is taking a little time to adjust to the fact that tomorrow I’ll be setting off on my first journey in such a long time, and it’s a fabulous one!
I’ll be setting sail with Joan Mulloy, Irish competitive ocean offshore sailor; Karen Darke, multi-medal winning paralympian and mountaineer; Sophia Scott, film maker and carbon/reclaimed plastic tech visionary and a team of inspiring, positive action focused leaders and achievers to travel from Iceland to Greenland. We’ll be exploring Prins Christian Sund and the channels behind Cape Farewell at the southern tip of Greenland that have only recently become navigable due to the reduction of ice, investigating plastic and other non-organic pollution and looking at some of the stories of environmental change both past and present in Greenland.
Can’t wait!
