Concordia Station

Concordia is a French-Italian Antarctic research base, 1100km inland from Dumont d'Urville on a part of the Antarctic ice sheet known as "Dome C". The ice sheet here is over 3000m thick. The base is staffed year-round, housing around 50 in the summer.

    Am most interested in your post on Canada's most northerly PO's.

  2. Hi,
    What is the international mail rate from the french station? I couldn't find a rate calculator on the la poste website.

  3. I think it is 1.35€. It will probably change in January. I always add a bit extra in case the rate goes up before the mail is sent.
