This is a rather random welcome to the beginning of a new thought concept with me. After days of figuring out what to say - I have settled for something rather simplistic but show's what you're in for!

In the first episode of Wild Adventures you get to hear from my little brother, Martin Lowe. He is one of the most adventurous people I know. This episode mostly consists of him telling us about an ill-planned trip up a mountain in Morocco. A trip that even the experienced hikers were calling crazy.

The last seven minutes or so are him advising me about how to end the podcast and my inability to stop laughing.

In this entertaining episode we speak with Martyn Evans. Martyn and I met at boarding school in 1997.. 23 years later we talk about how those experiences have contributed to who we are today and the mentality of an expat. What we see as 'normal' is often seen as extreme, strange, extravagant or just plain weird.

In this episode I speak with my friend Nick James Brown (best name ever). He shares his experiences of being a military kid and moving all over the world.

That takes us into his business life, and how travelling as a kid may have influenced his career direction. He took an "unconventional" approach to starting his business, but has made it work and grow.
