About our Bacon Score methodology
YouTube Video Description

Rarely do travelers see as much of the world as Lucia Griggi, whose passion for her art has taken her from pole-to-pole, and to all continents in between. Journeying aboard Silversea's expedition ships as the Director of the cruise line's Onboard Photography Program, the multi-award-winning photographer is spurred by an unrelenting sense of curiosity, and with a strong motivation to document what she witnesses. "As Silversea’s first crossing of the Northeast Passage, there was a great deal of excitement among our guests, crew and Expedition Team when we set off from Nome in Alaska. Knowing that the itinerary would take us far enough north to reach the Arctic sea ice, and given the time of year that we were traveling, I was hoping to fulfill one of my all-time dreams of witnessing and photographing polar bears on the pack ice—in complete solitude and in their natural habitat. This would be my once-in-a-lifetime, golden moment."
