A few weeks ago I told you I will start doing Q&A episodes. As a result, a lot of you reached out with questions, so thank you for doing that. One of our listeners, in particular, came back with a long list of questions, so instead of just answering your questions, I thought I would invite him to the show and have a chat. Join us in this conversation with aspiring adventurer Callum Curtis-Bennett who is keen to find out more about how to get started in the offroad / overlanding community in the UK as well as how to take better photos of his adventures in his awesome looking Jeep Grand Cherokee.
