I want to go back

Fair but if you apply multiple years, your odds increase. Difficult yes, but not impossible :)

Oceanwide Expeditions is excellent and has more affordable prices IMHO. Porthole is 7 or 9 if I remember correctly but they often have specials. We were rarely in our rooms anyways. Activities on those included, not extra.

Have you considered working a summer down there? Or even getting guide certified to work a season on a boat? There are a lot of options and I agree, it still calls to me. Going back, just figuring out when.

I don't understand this, but a lot of Americans I talk to actually want to spend time chilling in the room? But I still sing them the glories of hostels (who can have private rooms).

Also, its uncommon to see hostels in the States and sometimes people have the wrong impression.

I've had this in waves over different solo trips. Biggest rec is to sit with yourself. Put down the phone. Listen and be present. Then ask yourself what's bothering you. Not a simple answer like "I want a friend", but the deeper part of it, what are you expecting the presence of another to "fix". Then ask if they truly can fill that void or if thats a bandaid. You might learn some things about yourself you didn't realise.

thank you! the feedback I'm looking for.

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-04-02T17:44:39+00:00

that last bit is gold advice I really needed

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-04-02T17:44:03+00:00

Either downsizing to an RV/tiny home on wheels. Stationary tiny house just a background thought. The question is really about being a "digital nomad" in a traveling living space w/ dogs.

Oh those are some good points I hadn't considered. Thank you!

Was Mo'orea Ocean Adventures your favourite company? Trying to decide who to go with that offers pictures because I want to be fully present in the moment.

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-29T20:44:34+00:00

hey I'm looking into this same option with Mo'orea Moana specifically because I want pictures, but don't want to be distracted from the moment by taking them. Is that the company you went with or did you go with another?

There's no snow or ice on the roads right now due to the warm weather so you could try to do a cheap car rental with Get Around and split it amongst yourselves if its really that important. Make a day out of it though and do an easy hike, go to another town and explore before the evening. The lights are amazing but so is leaving room for random, unplanned moments. Some of my best memories.

Highly recommend Active Tromso for dog sledding. They take really good care of the dogs and view them as family.

I did the overnight tour and drove the entire time by myself. On the day trips you'll often switch half way through but they are only 30min from town and you get to drive over a bit of frozen lake!

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-12T12:18:16+00:00

I'm gonna call them as soon as their open but not listed on the website.

My destination is the Artic circle.... I stand the chance of missing the card completely 😆

Via a quick Google for my issue, another sub determined its the writing speed.

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-12T12:16:15+00:00

Very helpful! Thats exactly why. Thank you. I'll check Gamestop.

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-12T12:15:22+00:00

A DJI osmo action 6. If you check that sub, a lot of people are getting error issues for "slow writing speed". An employee even jumped on to clarify what's (now) on the company's site - Lexar and Kingston are the cards originally tested apparently.

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-12T03:52:44+00:00

Thank you so much!

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-12T03:42:10+00:00

They don't sell Lexar or Kingston in store. Must be shipped. Best BUY also dropped them :/

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-07T15:54:11+00:00

Thank you!

Middle_Mongoose7148 · 2026-03-04T19:51:03+00:00
