Hi Samantha, thanks for writing. I have seen a lot of penguins, mostly Adélies. I
would say more than a hundred for sure. I have also seen a few Emperors and
hope to see more in the next three weeks and few days. I am very lucky to
be here, no doubt. It has always been a dream for me. I figured if you work
hard and try even harder you will get it, and here I am. I applied several
times for this project and did nto get it until I got it, s I would say do
not give up and keep trying.
Thanks for writing,
Juan.
