Showing results for "The Staffords" in Travel & Tourism

Award-winning memoirist Meg Stafford has an adventurous spirit, and this time she takes us along for the ride. When her daughters venture into terra incognita—one of them meditating in the Himalayas and the other negotiating with the Colombian military—Stafford decides to go too. In the process, she reflects on her own lifetime of wanderlust and what it means for a parent to love and to let go. Generous, insightful, and deeply funny, Stafford is the ideal tour guide for a journey as big as the world and as intimate as the human heart.

Is adventure travel an addictive escape or a vessel for self development? What makes people leave those that they love to take huge risks? Does showing vulnerability make you weak?

Adventurer and Guinness World record holder Ed Stafford will explore this very concept with a different guest each week. Guests include the remarkable Sir Ranulph Fiennes, Ness Knight and Dwayne Fields. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
