In this unique episode of the 10Adventures Podcast, we speak with Adam Lee, who walked 700 miles across the United Kingdom — not alone, but with a donkey named Martin. What began as a quest to avoid carrying a heavy backpack turned into an unforgettable journey filled with encounters, laughter, and life lessons.

Adam shares the surprising reasons he brought a donkey, how the pair traveled from Cape Wrath in Scotland to Portland Bill on England’s southern coast, and how walking slowly, and with an animal, transformed the way strangers interacted with him. From finding wild campsites to managing Martin’s grazing schedule, this is a story of simplicity, connection, and self-reliance.

Along the way, Adam shares insights from other major adventures across Latin America, the Pamir Highway, and Scotland — and reveals his dream trek from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego.
