As my departure date is nearing (April 11), I wanted to introduce the leader of my Greenland Expedition, Paul Rose. I have not yet met him in person but we’ve been exchanging emails and I look forward to shaking his hand. Paul is a very accomplished explorer, TV host, speaker, and expedition guide…to name a few of his many talents.
Paul’s recently completed a documentary on Frank Wild, Ernest Shackleton’s second in command. I am eager to hear about all of the travels/adventures he completed in the production of this documentary. As you may remember, I am a huge Shackleton fan and took the book, Endurance to Antarctica with me this past December.
Paul is also the Vice President of the Royal Geographical Society and Chair of the Expeditions and Fieldwork Division. I can’t think of a better person to lead the world’s first crossing of the Knud Rasmussen ice field. Paul will be tweeting from the expedition. I have his tweets posting to my site and if you are a twitter fan you can find them @Paul_Rose.
