Путешествие сначала лишает вас дара речи, а затем превращает в рассказчика.
Средневековый арабский путешественник Ибн Батута

Эта статья расскажет о моих впечатлениях от участия в экспедиции на остров Амстердам. Прежде всего это радиолюбительский опыт, но также немного о фотографии и о людях, которых мы встречали. Немного о природе и животных. В общем обо всем, что заставляет людей участвовать в таких проектах. Что выталкивает их из теплого кресла. И ведет через семь морей смотреть на чудеса нашего мира. Прозвучало несколько высокопарно, но именно чудеса и любопытство побуждают таких как я путешествовать.
