What Do We Mean By Adventure? |
|
|
This is such an important question and the answer isn't simple. For some, adventure conjures up images of big, heroic endurance epics where brave souls push their bodies and minds to the limit. For others, adventure is much simpler; camping in the back garden with your kids, going for a local hike or spending a weekend canoeing down a river. Read our perspective on adventure and let us know if you agree. |

Last Friday (17th January) was 'Quitters' Day', the day that you're most likely to give up your New Year's resolutions. But given you've subscribed to the WildBase newsletter, we know you're not a quitter :). So we want to know what is your 2020 adventure goal? What challenge have you signed up for? It doesn't matter how big or small we want to hear from you. |

To The Top Of The World and Round It...Twice! |
|
|
Take a listen to our great conversation with Captain Ketch (James Ketchell), who has adventure pouring through his veins. We caught up with Ketch to find out about what he's been up to recently (a lot) and what it takes to prepare for extraordinary challenges. To give a flavour, James has climbed Mount Everest, he's rowed the Atlantic, cycled around the world and has just returned from being the first person ever to take a gyrocopter around the plant. Truly astonishing and top bloke. |
