Expertise

I live off of the ‘high’ I see in our guests’ faces after they've had the experience of a lifetime. It's what drives me to make sure our operations run smoothly and safely.

Passion

Skiing with my dogs, enjoying a camping trip or cabin trip in Svalbard's raw landscape. Enjoying the playground that is nature. 

Habitat

In the Arctic or back home with my family in the deep forests of Sweden.

“It's a humbling privilege to work in the Arctic, this planet's last true wilderness, and I'm deeply grateful to do so alongside such a dedicated and knowledgeable team. Together we strive to honour and protect this extraordinary place, learning from it every day alongside our guests.”

— Signe Maria Brunk

Questions & Answers

My most transformative travel experience

There are many! But one that stands out is when me and some friends rappelled down approximately 35 metres into a moulin in the Austre Brøgger glacier to spend a night deep in the frozen meltwater channels of the glacier.

My exploration inspiration

The drive and curiosity of the polar explorers of the 1600–1700s and the maps resulting from that time. The maps only present inconclusive landlines and the endless sea ice they were stopped by at the time. Fascinating considering the extreme conditions they operated under and how different it is today.

My dream adventure

Patagonia, Manitoba, and Mongolia.
