Über den Autor
Alastair Humphreys is an adventurer, blogger, author and motivational speaker. He regularly visits schools to talk about his adventures. Alastair's quest for adventure began young. Aged eight, he completed the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge and at 13 he did the National Three Peaks in 24 hours! At 14 he cycled off-road across England.At university, Alastair trained to become a teacher. But adventure took over! Alastair has now cycled round the world, raced a yacht across the Atlantic Ocean, canoed 500 miles down the Yukon River and walked the length of the holy Kaveri river in India. He has run the Marathon des Sables, crossed Iceland by foot and packraft, rowed across the Atlantic Ocean, and walked across the Empty Quarter desert. More recently Alastair has been encouraging people to seek out adventure close to home. The 'microadventures' idea saw Alastair named as one of National Geographic's Adventurers of the Year. Alastair is always blogging and tweeting about his adventures, big and small. Visit his website www.alastairhumphreys.com to see what he is up to and follow him on social media.
