Hello, 你好, bonjour, guten tag, こんにちは...and thank you for visiting!
Whether it's for the people you meet or for the sense of escapism, perhaps for the personal freedom, curiosity or simple need for a break; if managed correctly - travel has a profound capacity for positive change. It can instill new values, bring out new skills, qualities and perspectives, recalibrate the mind and regenerate the body.
I have been fortunate to travel extensively over the last fifteen years and firmly believe that adventure travel in particular, or active escapism as I've come to call it, is an important tool for personal growth and development.
That's not to say I'm against a traditional holiday at all, sometimes we really do just need to just chill on a beach with a beer! I'm suggesting that seeing travel with a different lens has the capacity to unlock your full potential.
More of a hobby project than anything, this is as much a learning experience for me as it will hopefully be for you absorbing some of the content and I welcome any comments or questions as the site grows. Happy travelling people!
