CAROLINE CÔTÉ

• CANADIENNE (SOON NORWEGIAN :-) • POLAR EXPLORER • POLAR COACH & GUIDE • Expert Layer-Wearer 

Born with a spirit of adventure and a tendency to wander into the unknown, Caroline’s first expedition might have been to the back of her fridge, but she quickly graduated to far more ambitious terrains.

 

MISSING PIECE

 

Her love for the wild led her to the Arctic,  in Svalbard where she did a sixty three days unsupported expedition with her husband.  She solo crossed a part of Antarctica and reached the South Pole from Hercules Inlet in thirty three days two hours and fifty three minutes. Years before she explored  the Forbidden Plateau of the Antarctic Peninsula twice. She guided a Greenland trip which she enjoyed a lot. She loves the Northern part of Canada. She now lives in the Arctic Circle in Norway but comes from Montreal, Eastern Canada. She named her son Leif because she think that Leif Erickson was the best explorer. 

 

Like you she is in love with places where most people’s eyelashes freeze before they can say, “Pass the hot chocolate.”  

Her secret ADVICE:

Bring a really nice surprise for your team like a fresh pineapple 

Don’t bring your Ipad

Don’t bring your coffee machine
