Bushwalkers Diary

In this episode, titled "Into the Wild: My Journey from Comfort to the Unknown," I share my musings on the past 16 months of travel that have taken me across continents, landscapes, and emotional terrains.

Leaving behind the comforts of Australia, I embarked on a journey fueled by the desire to chase my dreams, challenge myself, and embrace the unknown. Along the way, I’ve discovered the healing power of solitude, the thrill of pushing my limits, and the unexpected beauty of forging connections with people and places I never imagined.

This episode dives into the highs and lows, the lessons learned, and how each step away from comfort brought me closer to myself.

Kavita Joshi(myself) has been canyoning for quiet a few years and since last summer (2020) she really started focusing on canyoning in terms of skills, gear and also as her main outdoor activity in life to a point that her friends call her crazy how every weekend she just lives to canyon and camp. 

In this episode we will hear more about why she loves canyoning so much and share some stories with the audience. 

Dan Slater is an outdoorsy person with a great sense of humour. I have had the fortune to meet Dan in one of my canyoning trips. I love listening to  his stories around the campfire and slowly getting to know Dan's many talents from writing reviews of the gear or publishing travel books. This episode will aim to bring you some of the awesome adventure stories from Dan's life. Season 2, Episode 3 - Meet Dan.
