What would it take for you to leave everything behind and pursue a life of adventure?

Will Hunt is a former accountant who traded his comfortable life in London for the challenge of canoeing the entire length of the River Gambia while documenting his adventures on YouTube.

This special Transition to Travel episode captures Will’s journey from preparation to post-expedition reflections as I interview him both before and after his trip.

Hear how Will Hunt turned his dream of an extreme expedition into reality despite having no prior canoeing experience and the emotional and physical transformation that comes with taking a leap into the unknown. From the unexpected challenges of navigating the River Gambia to the cultural lessons he absorbed, this conversation highlights personal growth, resilience, and the power of adventure.

Will’s story is a great reminder that you don’t need to know everything before you get started. If you've ever considered leaving stability behind for something bigger—or simply want to hear a story of courage and exploration—this episode will inspire you to take that first step.

PLUS, we have part three of our road trip planning series, where you’ll hear ideas to help you craft an unforgettable itinerary.

Are you preparing for a transition to travel? I'd love to hear about it, and I hope you’ll share by sending me an audio message.
