Not all people have a chance to see the Arctic, but if you set yourself a goal and make every effort to fulfill it, you can visit the northernmost latitudes of the Earth on an icebreaker or even by kayak.
Instructions
Step 1
Repeat the feat of the Arctic pioneers. Go to the Arctic on your own in the summer, this is the best time to make such a trip. Stock up on food and warm clothing. Choose a reliable kayak as your boat. On it you can walk along the Pechora River from the city of Naryan-Mar (Nenets Autonomous Okrug) to the mouth in the Pechora Bay. Then move northeast along the coast of the Barents Sea. You will be taken to Vaygach Island, and this is the real Arctic. If you wish, you can dodge north and get to Novaya Zemlya. Such a journey is fraught with risk, so evaluate your own strengths. Remember that you will have to get food by hunting and fishing, because you are unlikely to find supermarkets. You can only buy food from oilmen or local hunters. If you have chosen this travel option, visit the sites of modern travelers who have had the experience of conquering the northern seas.
Step 2
Take the opportunity to take a real arctic icebreaker trip. Such a cruise is organized in the summer months, anyone who has a sufficient amount of money can take part in it, the cheapest accommodation option starts at $ 28,000. The number of places is limited, only 112 people are recruited. The journey begins in Alaska, from there you will be taken by plane to Anadyr, where you will board the Kapitan Khlebnikov icebreaker. Your path will run from east to west, you will see Wrangel Island, New Siberian Islands, Severnaya Zemlya, Franz Josef Land and through the Barents Sea you will get to Murmansk. You can order such a tour through elite travel agencies.
Step 3
Master the profession of a cook and get a cook on an icebreaker. For example, at the Murmansk Trade and Economic College, you can study the specialty "Technology of Public Catering Products", which will allow you to get a job on an icebreaker and visit the Arctic.
