Art of Manliness Podcsat #120: Microadventures with Alastair Humphreys

Originally published June 2015 Earlier this week we published a post about my 8-week microadventure challenge. The book that inspired that challenge was Microadventures by professional adventurer Alastair Humphreys. In today’s podcast I have the pleasure of talking to Alastair about what inspired the idea for microadventures and why every man should start scheduling them into their life on a regular basis. Show Highlights How Alastair got his start as an adventurer How Alastair defines “adventure” What a microadventure is The excuses people usually give to not go on microadventures and Alastair’s response to those excuses Examples of Alastair’s favorite microadventures What Alastair learned about himself and his country by going on microadventures His suggested kit to have at the ready so you’re always prepared for a microadventure The wonders of a bivvy bag And much more!
