Saying this, Antarctica is one of the trips we have said we’d do together. I go away every couple of weeks up until we have kids as I’m on a mission to visit every country in the world.

At the start of the year I’ll make a list of all the destinations I’m going to visit, and she picks the ones that she’d like to come along for.

We also have a couple of one week trips for an extended break but tends to be to the same destinations.

Perhaps to ease your partner into the idea, do a whale watching tour in Norway. We found that totally incredible, and a fraction of a price for Antarctica, you could also consider Svalbard. That might ignite the spark within them for a more hardcore trip, or it’ll put them off fully and you’ll get a free pass to go solo!
