What do bacon butties and a cup of tea have in common? Absolutely nothing, but they sure taste good after a 51 kilometre adventure race through the Scottish Highlands! Louise Rey, a weekend adventurer and cofounder of City Camping, joins me on this weeks episode as we discuss the phenomenon known as outdoor adventure racing, the lessons learned from the races we completed and why you should consider doing one. We can both relate to cramming all of our gear into a carry-on bag for our outdoor pursuits and we help you navigate those weird sounding items found on a race kit list. Louise shares with us the exciting developments of City Camping and the importance of getting out in nature. Want to know more about this initiative?

This season of the Carry-On Bags Only podcast kicks off with a 400-foot descent into a volcano and a tour of Hobbiton. Have you ever traveled to pursue a passion? This week we follow my friend Justin’s journey to knock off his bucket list trips to Iceland and New Zealand. Justin talks about the power of a positive mindset when things don’t go as planned and the magic of travel itself. We also reflect on how an epic out-of-office email notification inspired us both to get outside and see the world.
