The swiss who fell in love with the Arctic

Andy Fitze is a Swiss skipper and expedition leader who has over 20 expeditions behind him - and his list of future Arctic sailing experiences is long. This year, he is sailing from Lofoten to Jan Mayen, Greenland, Iceland, and the Faroes to get back to the elements and out of internet range. Raw nature experiences under sail are what he seeks.

You can read more about him on Sail2North Sailing in Extremis, and follow him on Instagram SkipAndyFitze.
