Inside our polar event: An evening of Arctic and Antarctic inspiration
Team Wanderlust joined 100 readers, a panel of polar experts and explorer Sara Wheeler for an evening of drinks, inspiring discussions and serious trip planning. See what we got up to...
Visiting the Poles is one of the biggest expeditions a traveller can take. Often, it requires careful planning, saving, and making the absolute most of the trip of a lifetime. That's why our latest sold-out reader event was all about polar inspiration and information.
With Wanderlust's co-founder and editor-in-chief Lyn Hughes on the mic, an expert panel to answer YOUR questions, experienced tour operators to help support trip planning and a keynote speech from Sara Wheeler, the first female writer-in-residence in Antarctica, the event was a smash hit.
