Adventurer and Expedition provider, Darren Clarkson-King, joined us for this episode of Outdoor Instructor Chat. As always really enjoyed the chat, couldn't stop laughing. Did get carried away at one point towards the end and forgot we were doing a podcast.   Things that we discussed: Paddling all the rivers on Everest and K2, How do you know you are ready for a trip? How to spot an Outdoor Instructor? Is being uncomfortable part of working in the outdoors? Working in media, sponsorships and some Quickfire(ish) Questions.   Again, a MASSIVE THANKS to Darren. Make sure to find him online, I've made sure to include plenty of links including his youtube channel, website and social media. Plus some links to the other things we discussed.    Website: http://www.purelandexpeditions.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/purelandexpeditions.net  Instagram:  @ple_and_me or https://www.instagram.com/ple_and_me/?hl=en Twitter:  @ple_and_me or https://twitter.com/ple_and_me?fbclid=IwAR2RVOWFuKoIDXnyz6iULj3YBvXyvfhmti-sIRRdUx7ge7n8JZzCEiAD5AI Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH-oz-dUAS5K8jrWIgtSE6g  Podcast: https://www.podbean.com/ea/pb-q5pwq-deaa38   Barnes and Noble book Link: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/white-water-nepal-peter-knowles-and-darren-clarkson-king-peter-knowles/1110633990?ean=9780955061424  Moveable Feasts book link: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Moveable-Feasts Speedster Stoves: https://speedsterstoves.co.uk/     .................................................................................................................................................................   If this stuff is useful, give it a LIKE, SHARE and SUBSCRIBE!!!
