BONUS EPISODE: A Life More Wild

BONUS EPISODE: A Life More Wild

Recently I was interviewed on the popular British podcast A Life More Wild which interviews prominent (mostly British) folk about what matters in life WHILE they hike in a favourite locale in the UK. It’s run by the outdoor holiday company Canopy & Stars, which is part of the Alastair Sawday Group (they publish a massive range of hiking guides).


For this episode, we do a circuit track in the Chiltern Hills (“Area of Outstanding Beauty”) in Buckinghamshire, about an hour out of London. I chose this one because it starts and finishes at a pub, passes by a very cute church that serves tea and scones on weekends and does a loop around the Prime Minister's holiday residence - Chequers. I share my various theories, tips and tricks for hiking in the chat amid birdsong and churchbells.


SHOW NOTES

Here's the trail I did.

I have shared a bunch of epic hikes that I had done over the years, including all the details for accommodation, where to eat etc. You. can check them out over on my Substack: I’ve done a bunch of amazing multi-day Australian ones, several in the UK, Europe and more.
