I'd really like to go to Antarctica and befriend penguins. I like the cold and I like penguins so why not? Unfortunately, the average temperature is -17°C which is a bit colder than I am used to. I think it might be okay if I wear a thick jacket and a winter hat. What do you guys think? Do I have what it takes? It's my dream.

The whalers did it with shitty wooden boats and all natural materials. You'll be fine.

    Be sure you bring Shackleton with you. He will increase your survival chances.

    My dude, the North Pole isn't real. There's no Santa. It's just rocks and snow and stuff. Also, aren't penguins extinct or something?

    be sure to bring a super thick jacket and the warmest hat you can find.

    bring some snacks for you and your penguin friends and you might not want to wander very far from the ship.

    You can go on study trips there, maintaining their equipment and taking measurements, if you do various STEM subjects or geography.
