The beauty of the Antarctic is awe-inspiring: the sunshine brightens the glittering icebergs, the various shades of blue and white were within your touch but looked so unreal.

In this world of ice and snow, the penguins adorably waddled and clumsily made their way through the landscape.

When we sat down, put down the camera and quietly looked at them in the snow; everything faded out, leaving us in a peaceful moment.

The journey to the Antarctic is like a fascinating dream, a dream in which we not only arrived at the polar region, but also experienced a purifying expedition of both our mind and soul.
