What Really Matters Interviews

WRMI014: Carla King: Author, Explorer & "Missadventure" Motorcyclist


Listen Later

Imagine being a blond woman traveling through remote China in the late 90s.

Where few Westerners had ever gone. On a rickety motorcycle.  Alone.

That's just one of Carl King's many adventures.  She's also ridden motorcycles all over the world.  And a bicycle through West Africa.  Again ... alone.

And then there's her creative and professional side - author, speaker, coach, teacher industry expert and online instructor.

In this far-ranging interview, I interview Carla King about her travels, love of exploring, and the special challenges of being a female adventurer.  We also discuss her books, travel writing advice, and the steps you can take to write your own travel memoir.
