Originally published July 5, 2021Oftentimes the best adventures are not in the most well-known places or in the most dramatic of sceneries. Hidden gems of adventure are all around us. In fact, as we say on this show, adventure is anywhere you are. Alexandre had his sights set on Turkey, a country he had longed to visit. Little did he know, the adjacent and lesser-traveled country of Georgia would quickly become one of his favorite places in his more than seven-year full-time travel adventure. Support Adventure Sports Podcast monthly by going to Patreon.com/AdventureSportsPodcast or make a one-time donation to the show here.Learn more about Greg Wingo’s Albanian Alps trail running adventures at roamprojects.comEd Roberson’s Mountain & Prairie Podcast episode about landing a job in the conservation world: https://mountainandprairie.com/shed-sesh/Find Fitz Cahall’s new book, States of Adventure here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/074409271X?tag=randohouseinc7986-20Support Adventure Sports Podcast monthly by going to Patreon.com/AdventureSportsPodcast or make a one-time donation to the show here.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
