Creator's Key Takeaways

I had arrived in spalart a Norwegian archipelago well above the Arctic Circle and I was closer to the North Pole than almost everyone else on Earth

I booked an 11 night Arctic cruise on Poseidon expedition's Sea Spirit ship

the Sea Spirit size is perfect for an exped Cruise itinerary most Expedition ships including the Sea Spirit are significantly smaller than ships that can accommodate thousands of passengers

I'll never forget the sheer sense of adventure as I stood at the front of the Sea Spirit and felt the chilly Arctic air rush against my face
