  • Welcome to my Antarctica Story Time! Today, I tell you guys how I got stranded in Antarctica with a small group of other students, and what we did to stay safe.
    I'll also go over how to go to Antarctica (or at least, how I was able to go: through an incredible program I was part of during my time at Wharton Business School), the weather while we were there (and how this posed some serious issues for us), how we ate and went to the bathroom (not at the same time), and a bunch of other dun things.
    I hope you enjoy my very first travel vlog!! Nothing like an extreme tundra vlog to start off my travel video series.

    A friend of mine went to Antarctica about a decade ago, and it cost him $ 40,000. I didn't remember why or exactly what his adventure entailed. But getting to go for free brings new meaning to the term "priceless". Good for you! And great story telling. I enjoyed listening to you tell it.

    Just finished watching this with my morning cup of coffee and I absolutely LOVED this video Taylor! Speaking to my traveler soul 😍😍😍 you’re such a fabulous story teller! Haha I always feel like I do better the second time around telling a a story. LOVED your editing in this one, whenever I need to include a map of some sort I gotta give that a go 😍🎉 the photography was spot on on your trip too! Did y’all have someone really into photography there or just some bangin cameras?! Girl WHAT A DREAM. Seriously once in a lifetime opportunity and so glad you seized it! So cool that the school let you go for free! Is it just because your were senior leadership and the freshies and lower class-men have to pay their way? I always say I love the cold but never felt THAT kind of cold 🤣 my husband lived in alaska for awhile before we met but he thinks I would enjoy it. Can’t wait to go and visit 😍 I love winter wonderlands!!! And I’m totally down to hear your Patagonia adventure! That’s on my bucket list too 🎉 absolutely loved love loved this story time type of video on traveling 😍 you know I’m a traveler too so I may be biased asking for more 🤓🤣 oh and thanks for explaining about how y’all had to go potty, I was legit curious about it a few minutes into the video 🤣 it’s the little things. And you know I gotta ask - how freaking long did it take for you to edit this one?! 😱😍🎉

    The cold water hitting the face and eyeballs that can give a major rush where you feel your stomach just dropped? That's due to a whole host of nerve activities behind the eyeballs triggering a dive reflex. Interestingly, it jacks up your blood pressure within seconds from a normal of 120/80 to like 160/90 (which is nuts, mind you). I agree 100% - its a weird sensation. Few years back, I published on this concept to see if we can keep the BP elevated for someone with an open system (like a gunshot wound) in remote warfare or pre-hospital settings. Amazingly it works pretty well. Anyways, has nothing to do with my woodworking channel but I thought it was interesting that you remembered that odd feeling from Antarctica.

    • @TaylorBell

    Took me a minute to sit down and watch this one only because I wanted my boyfriend to watch it with me since he is a climber himself. He basically thinks you are a bad ass now haha 😝He would love to go to Antarctica, his last climb was Mt. Kilimanjaro and then he was supposed to do Mt. Elbrus last summer, but that was put on pause because of COVID. Loved the casual vibes while telling this story too. 🥰 Love to hear more travel experiences!

      AW oh my gosh hahah I'm so flattered!! That's awesome that he's a climber, have you guys climbed together? 😊 Such a fun little date idea hehe. And woah those are impressive peaks!! He should come here to climb Mt. Whitney sometime when it's a bit warmer. By brother has climbed the east face of it several times and said it was incredible. But it can also be hiked up 😊 Aw well thank you guys so much for taking the time to watch this!! I'm so glad you liked it 💜

      Haha, I am definitely not as talented as him in that realm. I have tried it once with him in the Red Rocks here. But, that was a slight fail on my end.. but we love hiking together 😝 Btw, totally recommend the Red Rocks if you are ever in the Vegas area for climbing / hiking. It is so gorgeous! I just asked him, he said he did the East face route of Whitney also a couple years back. He said he loved it!

    A group of friends and I got stranded somewhere not nearly as cool as Antarctica once but we refer to those days as our “bonus trip” and those were our favorite days of the trip as well! 💓💓 what an adventure to be able to share!

    I made the tourist version of that trip on an expedition ship from Hurtigruten (pictures on my blog) but your experience sounds maybe even more interesting. I'm maybe a little bit envious but nice you had the chance. I was also surprised of the wildlife. Even ins summer it's a region which has hard conditions and I never have seen so much wildlife on any other place of the world. And the animals don't even have fear because they have no bad experiences with human.
    I can really understand the "how that food tasted" part. I allways had the same experience when going back to town on pacific crest trail although it's not antartica it has is dangers.

    Great video! It looked and sounded really scenic! Its nice that you got to see those penguins in the wild up close instead of in an aquarium. It's awful how because of the pilot having to fly in not ideal weather you couldn't come home right away though.

    Next time, try to stay in the cold areas but maybe not as extreme as Antarctica ? In Northern Europe we got no penguins but you get the Northern lights and you also get to sleep in an Igloo and if you need to go to the bathroom then 20 feet away from the igloo there is a house... just saying , you can enjoy the cold in a "civilized" manner as well 😂
