\u201cA lot of people ask why I set out on these often crazy trips and to be honest, I don\u2019t know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They take me away from my precious family and I miss them every second I\u2019m away. And I know they worry about me when I\u2019m gone. So why? Are they fun? It depends how you define fun, I guess. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Adventures aren\u2019t really adventures unless there\u2019s some element of danger. They can be gruelling. Mentally and physically they can grind you down until all you can think about is just putting one step in front of the other. You\u2019re either freezing in sub-zero temperatures or your skin is blistering from the heat even when you\u2019re in the shade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They push you far beyond limits you never knew existed. It can be heart-breakingly lonely and there have been a few times when I thought I\u2019d never get home. But the call of adventure is so strong that it\u2019s a need. Fulfilling that need makes me feel blazingly alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some people have to travel beyond the known horizon every now and then. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
