Usually at this time of the year I have already spent weeks in the field or I‘m checking all of my equipments for the upcoming trips. Needless to say how much I love the Polar Regions.
Now, due to the Covid-19 crisis, 2020 has started completely different.
For this reason I decided to publish one image a day (for at least 10 days) to show you the beauties and the life in the Arctic from my eyes as Arctic guide.
I want to feel like I'm on the field...maybe with you!

LUCI POLARI – Viaggio alla scoperta delle meraviglie dell’Artico
Claudio Ghiglione & Marco Gaiotti
