My Travel Story

by: Melody Cooper Start Date: Sep 28, 2023 - End Date: Dec 1, 2023
I'm writing a book about climate change and I've been invited to go to Antarctica on an all-expense paid cruise. I would join my brother, who is leading bird watching during the cruise and I'd get the chance to do research for my book. I cannot afford the flight and expenses to get to Argentina to go on the cruise on December 9, 2023! This is not only a once in a lifetime opportunity that's been on my bucket list for two decades, it would also be an essential trip for the climate change book. If you could find your way to helping out towards geating from LA Argentina where the cruise leaves from, I would be so grateful! I'm a single mom of three who has spent most of my extra income raising my wonderful kids and paying for their college tution. This would allow me to dive into work that I have a special passion for and deals with a important, urgent issue. THANK YOU!

    The Ship: National Geographic Endurance
    I’ve been invited to an expedition on the most advanced ice-class expedition ship afloat offering unprecedented access to polar regions. The National Geographic Endurance is named to honor explorer Ernest Shackleton and his legendary Transantarctic Expedition and is a fully-stabilized vessel of ice class PC5 Category A.
