Ali Liddle

Ali has lived on both the Falkland Islands and South Georgia, but these days is based on the Isle of Skye in Scotland. She has a passion for the polar regions and works on ships in both the Antarctic and Arctic regions. Ali has been working on cruise ships since 2010 and is a self-confessed ‘Polar Addict’ with a deep love of Antarctica and the Arctic; their landscapes, wildlife and the history associated with the regions. Originally from the UK, Ali spent 15 years living in the Falkland Islands where she worked as a Primary school teacher. She later pursued her passion for wildlife and environmental and conservation issues employed as Education Officer for Falklands Conservation. In 1997 she was lucky enough to spend some time living on South Georgia where she ran the Post Office. Of all the places she has been fortunate to travel to, this sub-Antarctic Island is her absolute favourite place on the planet.  Ali has published three books to date including Plants of the Falkland Islands, and her interest is natural history, the wildlife and flora, and she enjoys sharing her local knowledge of and passion for the polar regions.
