Seikkailukaveriltani Greg Maudilta on kysytty satoja ellei tuhansia kertoja “Why?”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Kysyj\u00e4t ihmettelev\u00e4t sit\u00e4, miksi h\u00e4n, \u00a0huippuyliopistoista (mm.MIT) valmistunut kahden lapsen is\u00e4 l\u00e4htee yksin soutamaan Atlantin halki 17.p\u00e4iv\u00e4n kuluttua. Edess\u00e4 noin 5000 kilometri\u00e4 pieness\u00e4 veneess\u00e4, jota h\u00e4n kutsuu koirankopiksi.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Min\u00e4 en kysy h\u00e4nelt\u00e4 why, vaan sanon why not?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No, antaa miehen kuitenkin vastata itse kysymykseen. T\u00e4ss\u00e4 on suora kopio miehen nettisivuilta:<\/p>\n
“A lot of people ask why I set out on these often crazy trips and to be honest, I don\u2019t know. 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. 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. 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
Some people have to travel beyond the known horizon every now and then. I\u2019m one of them. But what\u2019s even stronger is the call of family and they are what keep me going and what always brings me home”<\/p>\n

Allekirjoitan jokaisen sanan ja lauseen. Se on just noin.<\/p>\n

Olemme meilailleet Gregin kanssa viime p\u00e4ivin\u00e4 todella paljon, enemm\u00e4n kuin ehk\u00e4 koskaan aiemmin. No tietty silloin tulee meilattua noin kerran tunnissa, kun olemme valmistatuneet yhteisiin seikkailuihin:-)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Olemme miettineet mihin suuntaamme katseemme heti sen j\u00e4lkeen, kun olemme saaneet omat solo-seikkailumme p\u00e4\u00e4t\u00f6kseen. Greg haluaa, ihan ymm\u00e4rrett\u00e4vist\u00e4 syist\u00e4, viett\u00e4\u00e4 aikaa kuivalla maalla:-)<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Voi olla, ett\u00e4 juoksemme kimpassa Namibian aavikon halki. Siell\u00e4 kun on ne \u00a0maailman korkeimmat dyynit. Namibia ei ole kuitenkaan se seuraava iso yhteinen seikkailu vaan ehk\u00e4pa “vain” paikka, jossa voimme ihan rauhassa hiljenty\u00e4 miettim\u00e4\u00e4n what\u00b4s the next big challenge,,.and the meaning of life?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pit\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4 kaverille peukkuja ja l\u00e4hett\u00e4k\u00e4\u00e4 vaikkapa kannustavia viestej\u00e4!http:\/\/gregmaud.co.za\/about<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Olo on jo hemmetin hyv\u00e4, joten juoksen torstaina lyhyen testilenkin.<\/p>\n
