Annika: my goosebump moment was when I hiked the Annapurna circuit trek in Nepal, and walked all the way to the Thorong La Pass. The pass was at an altitude of 5416 meters, we had hiked for many days to get there. The nature around us was beautiful. The whole trip made a big impact on me and reminded me how small and insignificant we are as humans in such a vast mountain landscape.

Joyce: my goosebump moment was when I saw Victoria Falls for the very first time. The locals there call it Mosi-oa-Tunya: the smoke that thunders. It is an amazing place to be. You can actually feel it, you can actually hear the thundering of water as it hits down the bottom of the gorge and when you behold the falls, I cannot even describe the feeling.

Nyasha: my goosebump moment was when I saw Victoria Falls for the very first time. One of the greatest attractions in Africa and one of the most spectacular waterfalls in the world, Victoria Falls is located on the Zambezi River, the fourth largest river in Africa, which also defines the border between Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Ahmet: my goosebump moment was when I saw the underground lake Kow-Ata. The lake is in the cave at the depth of 60 meters. In the cave, there is a staircase that leads downwards to the water and when you look up, there are a lot of bats and you feel like you are in a movie.

Carol: my goosebump moment was when my partner and I went sailing next to the southeast coast of Alaska. When we anchored our boat, we saw a huge whitish spot in the water. To our surprise there were millions and millions of jellyfish, all sizes, floating around. The water was just filled with them. It was so crazy and beautiful.

Shasenem: my goosebump moment was the trip to Darvaza in the middle of Karakum Desert. They call it “The Door to Hell”. That was really impressive because this gas crater has been burning for almost 50 years and people don’t know how long it will continue to burn. It was really amazing to see what Mother Nature created. It really is a must-see!

Fabio: i always feel goosebumps when I see volcanos, active or not, like the one from my island, the volcano Pico do Fogo. Volcanos are some of the most destructive forces of nature. They can provide life, but also, they can take life away. Volcanos are beautiful, they are amazing.

Nadya: my goosebump moment was when I saw a video about a cat mom who just gave birth to her own kittens but she decided to adopt cute baby ducks. She treated them as they were her own babies. I think all people and humanity can learn from that attitude.

Liz: my goosebump moment happens every year in spring. I do a lot of gardening and what excites me every year is when the seeds pop their little heads out of the ground and you see them grow into plants. It’s just magical and gives me Goosebumps.

Durk: my goosebump moment is skating with my family. I am from the Netherlands and here every ten years the ice gets very hard in the winter and we can skate on it. That’s a very special moment. I really love it.
