Oli Broadhead: Why it matters to be nice

from Bristol2Beijing · host Luke Grenfell-Shaw

“I just kept talking calmly and pretending not to understand...I’m very happy to be robbed.” Oli started his adventures at a young age, sleeping in a tent in the garden when he was six. Growing up in Cornwall gave ample opportunity to explore the outdoors and this passion has led him to travel to remote parts of the world, including a walk across South India living on just a dollar a day and trekking through Sumatra. In this conversation Oli shares his tips with me on staying cheerful, how he survived an attempted mugging, the challenge of getting started on each expedition, and how he coped with lockdown.
