Klappentext

A firsthand account of what it's like to spend a year living and working in Antarctica through the eternal winter

Located 3, 500km from the nearest city on a volcanic island near Antarctica, lies New Zealand's only polar research station: Scott Base. In The Antarcticans , Matty Jordan offers a rare, vivid look at life in the world's most inhospitable environment. Through stunning photography and captivating storytelling, the book explores a landscape of curious penguins, all-day auroras, and "frozen-in-time" vistas.

Beyond the scenery, Matty provides a behind-the-scenes perspective on the challenges of working in the coldest, windiest place on Earth. As tourism to the "White Continent" grows, the book also serves as a practical guide for responsible travel, detailing what to expect from expedition cruises, vast penguin colonies, and historic sites.

Ultimately,The Antarcticans is a story of human connection. Set within a remote research facility, it highlights how a sense of community can flourish even in total isolation. It offers readers a temporary escape from our fast-paced "real world" into a magical, otherworldly environment where friendship and adventure are essential for survival.
