Thank You
Thank you to the many people who have kindly "bought me a coffee" for just £2.50 as encouragement to keep this blog going. "Yes, I too would like to donate a couple of pounds to this site..!"
Loved it !!!
Al-
Great storytelling mate. My adventuring has taken a bit of a different turn in the past 4 year (two children, promotion, blah, blah, blah…), but I continue to be inspired by your worldview and take on adventure!
Keep it up!
Matt
Thank you for your beautiful, inspiring and amusing film.
Great film – I’m planning to cycle to Geneva from home in Cotswolds – your Spain trip has added inspiration- thanks !
Wow Alastair, you are amazing!! Such courage to test yourself in that way. You are truly an inspiration in this world!
chapeau sir.
brave and inspiring.
to travel and live at the whim of other people’s kindness is surely a great way to experience the best in humans, and can only change your own outlook for the better.
Remember one of your early talks at Eye?
I incurred a C5 spinal injury in 2012 when a deer knocked me off my bicycle. My adventure was forced as I cannot walk and can only just use my hands. It’s actually been quite good!
Yes, I do rememeber that talk! Thanks for getting in touch. I’m sorry to hear about your accident but glad to hear that you are feeling positive.
This was so good, it made me smile all the way through. Thanks for doing this, thanks for making this video. It has made me think.
Isn’t it fascinating how, no matter our desperate denials, the shining life we’ve worked for can dull with time? No matter the original fervor and fury of our passions, life has a way of adapting to a new norm, of fatiguing our once tenacious steel into a dangerous lethargy. Cheers to you for spotting the cracks and reinforcing them with the vigor of a new discomfort that rests outside of your newly modified norms. An inspiration. Thank you.
As always, inspiring. The book is on my Christmas list
All of this is amazing, from your stellar choice of The Muppet Show theme song to the vulnerability you shared with strangers. Thank you for redefining what adventure can be.
Gracias!
Love this. Unfortunately, I now have the Muppet theme song stuck in my head.
