Trail Blazers: Laura Kennington

Trail Blazers: Laura Kennington

If you feel dissatisfied with your life, have you done anything about it? No? Then you may want to listen to this podcast for inspiration.

A bit fed up with her life and work trajectory, Laura Kennington turned her life upside down and decided to kayak down the River Volga in Russia on her own simply after hearing about the river during a pub quiz.

She had no experience of kayaking. Or travelling solo in far flung destinations.

It set in motion a career as an adventure athlete in a world typically governed by men.

She now uses human powered travel to inspire and encourage others to get outside and have adventures.
