Kayaking the Northwest Passage

from Where to Go

Today we’re joined by Mark Agnew, a writer, journalist and motivational speaker who made history as part of the first group to ever complete the Northwest Passage by kayak. We talk all about the resilience required to undertake the 2,000 mile trip, the unexpected joy of headwinds and close encounters with polar bears. We also discuss the true meaning of adventure and how you often don’t need to travel to a far-flung corner of the world to have a rewarding experience. Mark’s brand new book There Will be Headwinds is out 3rd July.
