@danyork you're welcome! I'm thinking of writing a couple more on Antarctica in general - I keep starting drafts but never finishing them. It might be time....
@Ruth_Mottram I know that feeling (starting drafts but never finishing them)! May you have more success than I in completing them!
34 years ago (1990), I spent 6 weeks as a field worker for a research camp in the middle of Greenland in our northern summer - and while there met a bunch of people who also worked in Antarctica during the southern summer. Ever since that time, I continue to often notice articles about either Greenland or Antarctica 🙂
@Ruth_Mottram Oh, wow! Very cool that you get to go to Greenland! I was only there that once back in 1990. I, too, would love to go to Antarctica some day.
And yes, the job of some of the support crew was definitely interesting - northern summers at research camps in Greenland... northern winters at research stations in Antarctica. For a 20-something, the idea was compelling! Alas, I had a job to come back to when my six weeks in Greenland was done, so I couldn't explore that life!
