Register your interest in the Arctic 2019

Places We Go is travelling to the Arctic in 2019 and YOU are invited!

Just like in 2014 when we took eighty Places We Go viewers to Antarctica with Chimu Adventures, this is your chance to turn an incredible travel dream into reality, joining Jen and the PWG team on board for an experience like no other; a journey in the Arctic which we will be filming. 

Chimu Adventures are the leaders in polar travel, and YOU could be one of the lucky few who visit this largely unknown place.

On this once-in-a-lifetime journey, we’ll be travelling for eight days on board the refurbished Ocean Atlantic expedition cruise ship around northern Norway’s Svalbard archipelago, exploring one of the world’s largest areas of untouched wilderness, and getting the best opportunity to spot the elusive and threatened polar bear.

A key focus of this special trip will be to witness first hand this magical, yet fragile part of the world and in turn raise the awareness of what we can all do to protect it and the planet at large.

Not only will this journey be etched in your memory forever, you will have one of the best souvenirs of your experience when it is presented on Channel 10 in 2019 over two dedicated episodes of Places We Go!

To register your interest in the trip and receive more information please complete the following form and a representative from Chimu Adventures will be in touch.

We hope to see you on board in 2019 as we journey to the ends of the earth together!

Jen and the PWG team x

I was lucky enough explore regional Victoria earli I was lucky enough explore regional Victoria earlier in the year (between lockdowns!), and tour the Goldfields with @big4holidayparks – Sure, I got my much-needed fix of the outdoors and was able to feed my insatiable curiosity as I explored the regions utterly fascinating history & culture, but it was sitting up at the old bar of family run Munari wines, just outside of Heathcote that got me.
.
 Chatting to the chief winemaker Adrian Munari, and his daughter India (over a lovely red, of course) I heard all about the historic sheep station that was established in 1871, and life on the property today. (I wonder how the farmers endured the pandemic in 1919?)  
 .
Here’s to a happy summer holiday for us all, of enjoying those ‘moments’, wherever we are. 
.
 I based myself at the @BIG4BendigoAscotHolidayPark

ARMIDALE IN THE SPOTLIGHT Ready for another cele ARMIDALE IN THE SPOTLIGHT
 
Ready for another celebration of a brilliant person and travel experience for us all?
.
Meet James Rainger from @fleetadventures 
.
He not only spends his life taking us travellers on scenic chopper tours over his World-Heritage Listed backyard of the #newengland region – he’s one of the many brilliant pilots who you’ll find hovering above the blazing heat helping fight our Australian Bushfires.
.
When I shared my nerves about flying, he settled me with in seconds. Super grounded, in safe hands kind-a-feeling, with the biggest sparkle in his eye.
.
“To be part of the firefighting team is being in the #armidale  community - we all live here, our kids go to school here, so we love it. Armidale is a community where we all band together, we’re very passionate about our backyard, and we hope it shows.. and we certainly hope people come and see what it’s like. We’ve got a unique view of part of the world that not many people get to see. And there are not hordes of people here, so it’s very personal, we like to bring people into our world and our life – and share it – thank you for taking the time to come and visit us… “

As for the flight? Put it on your @theaustralianbucketlist
