In this episode, we sit down at the well-worn kitchen table of Dan Smith—better known as Dan the Adventure Man. Surrounded by maps, coffee, and the quiet hum of anticipation, Dan shares the stories behind his wild journeys, including the epic Paddle of Britain in 2018. Now, he’s planning a solo 500km canoe expedition down the remote Hess River in the Yukon, where he’ll face rapids, isolation, and the occasional grizzly bear. But Dan’s real journey began much earlier—as a kid, staring out the classroom window, dreaming of faraway places. We talk about what drives him to push his limits, the power of curiosity, and why adventure doesn’t always have to mean danger. This is a conversation about purpose, imagination, and the quiet places where big dreams begin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
