Which one is for you? * **Why Go?** Beyond checking bucket lists, why everyone needs this once-in-a-lifetime experience! * **Travel Sharing** What do you actually do everyday on the expedition cruise? We share our experiences from our past voyages… * **Trip Preview: Arctic & Svalbard 2026** Other than the Arctic expedition cruise, we also curated a bespoke Svalbard adventure from Longyearbyen to Pyramiden to Barentsburg prior to the voyage. We will walk through the itinerary and share how this unique experience creates a level of connection you don’t always find on standard polar cruises in the High Arctic. **Who Should Attend** * Curious travellers who are drawn to remote and wild landscapes that few has set food on * Nature lovers, photographers and wildlife enthusiasts * Anyone thinking about joining our Arctic & Svalbard 2026 journey - because you will be eligible for special discount for this event!

Welcome to my sailboat. **Please read this notice**. These are crew opportunities, not for passengers, non-swimmers, people afraid of the water or get seasick. Bring a change of clothes, a towel, a hat, non-marking footwear with heelstrap and sunblock. There is a toilet and drinking water on board. Participants like to contribute to expenses in appreciation of this opportunity. **Also**, please confirm your attendance by SMS or Whatsapp on Saturday for sailing on Sunday, to avoid no-shows and missed sailings. No-shows deprive others of a place, so be responsible and remove your reservation if you are not attending, and please do it in good time. Places unconfirmed by Saturday will not be reserved, and I can't wait for you if I'm not sure you're coming. Keep me informed and reply to my messages. Don't be late. Thank you. Derek 9807-5827.

Hi Everyone, With Covid19 happening, there is still a limited participants for group events of up to 8 pax happening, so this just to keep the virtual skating together going. The Challenge is to skate as much as you can during this pandemic each week. And see how we rank on leaderboard of Strava. The ranking is arranged by most distances skated each week. Do join us through on Strava App below: Leaderboard updates on a weekly basis and resets every week (Mon to Sun) Join us at https://www.strava.com/clubs/freewheelers_sg (Kindly note that with specifically the Strava app, it is unable to cater for Inline skating option, so you will have list your tracking via run or ride for your ranking to show up in leaderboard. And this is the main challenge majority of skaters will be using.) Feel feel to contact Janice on Meetup if you need help with the apps to join us on these virtual skating challenges. You can also ask Janice for link to join a telegram group where impromptu small group skating events are frequently organized if you are looking for skating buddies. Special Note: Heard feedback from some Iphone users that trouble getting apps FOC. All these apps should be free. Please make sure you download the FREE VERSION. And please download the app, before you join via Challenge Links as the Challenge Links lead Iphone users to paid versions I think. Android Phones should be automatic directed to free version.
