Miriam Lancewood is an adventurer, author, and modern-day nomad who chose an extraordinary path far removed from the comforts of modern life. In 2010, Miriam and her husband Peter left civilisation behind, venturing into the high mountains of New Zealand with nothing but a backpack, a bow and arrow, and a tent.  For seven years, they lived as nomads, hunting wild animals, foraging for plants, and embracing a primal existence in the wilderness. Since then, Miriam's journey has continued to evolve. Together with Peter, she has roamed the wilderness of Europe, braved personal challenges like Peter's battle with kidney failure, and settled into an off-grid cottage in Bulgaria. While Peter tends the land, Miriam embarks on solo expeditions, most recently exploring the remote regions of the Himalayas, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan. Miriam is also a celebrated author, with her international bestseller Woman in the Wilderness captivating readers across the globe. Her sequel, Wild at Heart, and her most recent release, Wilder Journeys, showcase her incredible adventures and reflections on nature connection in the modern world. Join us as Miriam shares her remarkable story of survival, resilience, and what it means to live in harmony with nature, far from the conveniences of contemporary life.

Miriam is one of those women that continues to deeply inspire me and impact my life. We initially connected on podcast #34 of To Be Human which I highly, highly recommend where we explored her adventures of giving up her belongings with her partner Peter and moving to the mountains of New Zealand with a bow and arrow for 6 years and then subsequently walking 2,000km through the forests of Europe, along the coast of Turkey and ending up in the Australian desert. These incredible stories are shared in Miriam's international bestselling books, ‘Woman In The Wilderness' and ‘Wild At Heart'.What I personally love about this conversation that we have today is Miriam's continual evolution when it comes to understanding freedom, her consistent curiosity around who she really is and her commitment to living a life that is fundamentally true to her. We explore her current belief that to have a whole life that is planned is the worst prison of all. We explore the price we pay to live safe and comfortable lives and we explore how we are conditioned to continually solve problems, and what might just happen if we sat still for a moment and experienced the art of doing nothing. Connect with Jennah-LouiseInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jennah_louiseVoice Note Mentorship with JL: https://www.voicenotementorship.comWebsite: https://www.jennahlouise.comConnect with Miriam LancewoodWebsite: https://miriamlancewood.com/

Episode 165 of The Adventure Podcast features adventurer and author, Miriam Lancewood. Miriam grew up in Holland and travelled around Africa and India, before meeting her now husband, Peter. Peter was a 'modern nomad' and they spent the next few years hiking across mountain ranges, before ending up back in Peter's home country of New Zealand. After questioning the life they were living and the life they wanted to live, they gave up their possessions and moved into the wilderness with a tent and bow and arrow. One year turned into seven. In this episode, Matt and Miriam discuss how to survive in high mountains, what happens to the body and mind in wild spaces, and what it's like to go from a vegetarian to a hunter. Miriam is not a purist - she doesn't live by anyone else's rules or codes. This is a truly fascinating story and insight into a life that is very very rarely lived.Photo credit: Murdo MacLeodSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-adventure-podcast.

Kunnen wij mensen (over)leven in de ongerepte natuur?  Ja dat kan! Miriam Lancewood en haar 30 jaar oudere man Peter zijn hier het levende voorbeeld van.  Elf jaar geleden besloten zij het roer om te gooien. Ze ruilden hun huis in voor een tent en trekken sindsdien rond met enkel en alleen hun rugzak. Geen baan, geen bezittingen, geen vaste lasten.  Maar het is niet altijd rozengeur en maneschijn.  De koude, de regen of een ziekte kunnen best wel eens een uitdaging zijn. But... "Don't try to change the situation. Change your mindset and the situation will change". Ik onthou in ieder geval dat:​ Een goede voorbereiding van essentieel belang is voor elk project in je leven. We niet op uur en tijd moeten eten, maar beter kunnen luisteren naar ons lichaam. We best elke 5 minuten die we hebben in de natuur doorbrengen. Je niet hoeft te leven volgens de ongeschreven regels van huisje tuintje boompje. En je alles kan bereiken, zolang je maar niet te veeleisend bent. Ben je benieuwd naar het volledige verhaal van Miriam Lancewood?  Surf dan zeker even naar haar website https://miriamlancewood.com.

In 2010 Miriam Lancewood and her husband Peter left modern civilization to live in the wilderness of New Zealand – with not much more than a pack, a tent and a bow and arrow. One year became seven as they happily hiked 5000 km through New Zealand and Europe. Presently the couple reside in an off-grid shepherd's hut in the Rodopi mountains in Bulgaria. Her story is fascinating. Her outlook to life is inspiring. Her respect for nature is contagious. There is no doubt that we can all learn a thing or two about values and the world we inhabit when we listen to what Miriam Lancewood has to say. She is captivating!After a decade of leading a rigorous life in the wild, Peter and Miriam would like to share their stories and insights through their courses which involve seven days of practical philosophy lectures, intensive dialogue and nature based exercises.

Each episode of this third season will be released on the New and Full Moons. A 10 Questions in 10 Minutes episode will be released to coincide with the First & Last Quarter Moons. Miriam Lancewood was born in a loving home in a village in the Netherlands. After completing her university degree, she worked for a year in Zimbabwe, then traveled to India where she met her now husband Peter. Together they hiked over eight mountains ranges in the Himalaya, journeyed for years through South East Asia, including Papua New Guinea, and eventually they ended up in Peter's home country: New Zealand. Miriam worked for a while as a teacher, then they decided to give up all their worldly belongings and move into the mountains with a tent and bow and arrow. They wanted to learn how to survive in the wilderness, and find out what happens to body and mind when living in the beauty of the wildest nature on earth. Miriam's memoir Woman in the Wilderness, 2017 became an International Bestseller and was translated into five languages. Her second book Wild at Heart came out last year.

Hello beautiful people On today's podcast we have the powerful Miriam Lancewood. Miriam was born in the Netherlands. After completing her university degree, she worked for a year in Zimbabwe and then travelled to India where she met now husband Peter; a former university lecturer from New Zealand. Together they hiked over mountain ranges in the Himalaya, journeyed for years through South East Asia and eventually ended up in New Zealand. It was in New Zealand that they decided to give up all of their belongings and move into the mountains with a bow and arrow for 6 years, and subsequently in 2017 they left New Zealand to walk 2,000km through the forest of Europe, along the coast of Turkey and also ended up in the Australian desert. These incredible stories are shared in Miriam's international bestselling books, ‘Woman In The Wilderness' and ‘Wild At Heart'.What I personally love about this conversation is Miriam's energy and openness. I read both of Miriam's books, which I genuinely recommend, and thoroughly enjoyed the depth and pure, raw storytelling that prevailed. I cried, I laughed and I reflected on some harder topics that as a society we tend to suppress and ignore. I speak with Miriam about the wave of emotion that certainly was felt surrounding her fear of doing nothing and of being alone, her experience of transforming from being a vegetarian to a hunter, the lessons of life and death that are learnt from being in a relationship with someone 30 years her senior, and of finding herself through the exploration of nature and connection with the wilderness.If you are enjoying these podcasts, please rate, review, subscribe, share with friends and family, become part of the To Be Human Collective, and I'm excited to share this beautiful, empowered lady with you, Miriam Lancewood.Connect with MeMindset Coaching | https://www.jennahlouise.com.auInstagram Personal | https://www.instagram.com/jennah_louiseConnect with MiriamWebsite | https://miriamlancewood.com

Miriam Lancewood besloot na haar diploma aan de Academie voor Lichamelijke Opvoeding een backpackersreis te maken. In India ontmoette ze Peter, met wie ze besloot om als moderne nomades in de wildernis te gaan leven. Ook is ze auteur van twee boeken.

De reden dat ik Miriam Lancewood wilde interviewen is omdat zij in haar boek: Mijn leven in de Wildernis een aantal (in mijn ogen) mythische ervaringen beschrijft. Haar cyclus liep ineens spontaan met de maan, ze voelde intuïtief aan welke helende effecten planten hebben en ze kon energie van anderen waarnemen. Dit zijn exact dezelfde aspecten die worden behandeld in natuurreligies. Onze voorouders leefde in de natuur en met de natuur, ze waren er onderdeel van. In mijn ogen beleefde Miriam dus dezelfde dingen die onze voorouders beleefde wat de grondslag is van verschillende natuurreligies. Daar wilde ik alles over weten! Dus ik mailde haar en kreeg een leuke mail terug. Een van de mooie dingen die Miriam in dit interview zei was; als je teveel nadenkt kun je niet goed luisteren.  Toen ik aan Miriam vroeg wat is voor jou spiritualiteit, antwoordde ze “magie”. De magie in hoe alles met elkaar verbonden is en hoe de natuur werkt. We spraken samen ook over de ratrace waar veel mensen inzitten. Wat veel werken met je doet en hoe we maar door rennen. En dat dit in onze opinie onnatuurlijk is. Je hebt dan zo weinig tijd voor bezinning en reflectie. Er lekt ongelooflijk veel energie weg en zo ontstaat er weinig ruimte voor bewustzijn.  Het is een prachtig gesprek geworden met een prachtig mens.  --- Deel of beoordeel deze podcast in de app daar maak je mij blij mee ;) Volg me op instagram Info over membership  Link naar website

Heel veel mensen leven voor de toekomst. Terwijl ze niet weten of die ooit komt, of voor hoe lang. Ook deze aflevering is net als de vorige geïnspireerd op wijsheden uit het boek van Miriam Lancewood. Daarin kwamen Peter en Miriam tot de conclusie tijdens een gesprek over de dood dat ze geen tijd hebben om dingen te doen die ze eigenlijk niet willen doen. In deze aflevering duik ik hier dieper in.

Op dit moment lees ik het boek 'Mijn leven in de wildernis' van Miriam Lancewood. De wijsheden die zij opdoet in de wildernis zijn super inspirerend. In deze podcastaflevering vertel ik over hoe het voor mij gebeurde dat dit boek op mijn pad kwam. Ik dacht niets vermoedend een biografie te gaan lezen, en ontdekte dat er in het boek precies de wijsheden stonden die ik nu mocht ontvangen. Over één van die wijsheden gaat deze aflevering. De titel verklapt het al een beetje.

Myra de Rooy is auteur en avonturier. Op haar 60e besloot ze op een bijzonder avontuur te gaan, namelijk een tocht van 3.000 kilometer door de Noorse bergen. Ze wisselt in de bergen avonturen in de winter af met de zomer en doorkruist in verschillende seizoenen het hoge noorden. Daarnaast is Myra de organisator van de eerste Nederlandse vrouwenexpeditie in de Himalaya. We praten over de dood en risico's die op expedities gaan met zich mee brengt. Maar ook over het fenomeen thru-hiking en wat je nu een (echte) wandelaar maakt. Wil je meer van Myra horen? Ze is op maandagavond 15 maart te gast in de online masterclass Female on the Trail.

Onlangs ging ik opnieuw in gesprek met Miriam Lancewood. Haar tweede boek 'Liefde in de wildernis' is onlangs verschenen en de hoogste tijd dus voor een update. Hoe gaat het met Miriam ten tijden van corona? En waar is ze nu? Hoe ziet haar leven eruit en hoe beleefde ze haar tijd in Europa? Vond ze Europa minder wild dan Nieuw-Zeeland? Hoe ging ze om met beren? En hoe kwam het schrijven van haar tweede boek tot stand? Wat doet ze zelf om te verbinden met de natuur als ze in de stad is? En welke boeken hebben haar geïnspireerd om voor een leven in de wildernis te kiezen? Dit en meer bespreken we in deze podcast! Meer weten over Miriam? Dat kan op haar website of in de vorige podcast. Vanwege het tijdsverschil en de soms wat haperende wifi heeft deze podcast een iets minder goede geluidskwaliteit dan je van me gewend bent. Ik hoop op je begrip daarvoor.

Miriam is a best-selling author of the book 'Woman in Wilderness'. She lives with her husband in the New Zealand wilderness, surviving in extreme conditions by hunting wild animals and foraging edible plants. Miriam Lancewood has given up all modern-day comforts to live life right on the edge and off-grid. Her book, now translated in many languages, is her story of living six years in the wilderness with her husband. In 2017, Miriam and Peter left New Zealand to explore other wild places. They walked 2000 km through the forest of Europe and along the coast of Turkey, mostly camping under trees and cooking by fire. It's a gripping story about life and death, courage and the power of love. In this podcast, we dive deeper into her life in isolation and wilderness. It's her untold story from a youth-olympian, travelling through Africa, India, South-east Asia and living in New Zealand as a nomad with her husband. Interestingly, we met at the Emirates Dubai Literature Festival in February 2020 and became good friends. Recommendations: Classical Clarinet Music by Jörg Widmann All books by Michael Gruber and J.

In deze nieuwe aflevering van de Podcast voor Avontuurlijke Vrouwen ga ik in gesprek met überavonturier Tamar Valkenier, die je misschien kent van Floortje aan het einde van de wereld bij Miriam Lancewood. Tamar reist over de hele wereld om toffe expedities te maken. Soms solo, vaak met ezels, kamelen of andere dieren. Zo trok ze de laatste jaren door Mongolië, Nieuw-Zeeland en Jordanië en staat er voor de komende winter een schaatstocht over het Baikalmeer op de planning. In dit gesprek hebben we het over hoe zo'n idee tot stand komt en hoe het voor te bereiden. Maar we praten ook over angsten, leermomenten, de liefde en hoe ze het vindt om weer even terug te zijn in Nederland. En over het avontuur van het leven. Een inspirerend gesprek met iemand van wie we hopelijk nog veel gaan horen op het gebied van avontuur de komen jaren.

We don't know about you, but this COVID19 crisis has certainly made us reflect on what's most important in life. A little while ago we had the pleasure of Interviewing Miriam Lancewood, author of Woman in The Wilderness and although she doesn't own camels, boy did some have some wisdom for us! We wanted to interview Miriam about her wilderness adventures, because we know, that some of you listening, have brought camels for this idea of living more freely, trekking with your camels to remote places, far away from anything…. not to mention a large number of you who are wild about being in the wild and experienced this first hand with us on one of our camel treks. Miriam's amazing book, about her 8 years (so far) living out in the wilderness with her partner Peter covered some pretty interesting things. They have…. No phones. No work to attend. Some savings to help buy food every few months. Their own two legs. Back packs… And a heart open to what the wilderness can teach. Talk about DREAMY! It's their way of life, but it hasn't always been this way for them…. They wanted to learn how to hunt & survive in the wilderness, and they wanted to find out what happens to the mind and body, when living in the beauty of the wildest nature on earth. You just have to tune into the interview, we promise you'll leave feeling inspired in your own way – you can watch our video interview with her or listen to the audio.

Miriam Lancewood was born in a loving home in a small village in the Netherlands in 1983. After completing her university degree, she worked for a year in Zimbabwe, and then traveled to India. And in India she met her now husband Peter Raine.   Peter had resigned from his job as university lecturer in New Zealand and had moved to India to live like a ‘modern nomad’.

18 Jan 2020: Would you leave the comfort of home behind for a life in the wilderness, hunting your food and living in a tent? Miriam Lancewood has, and Ehsan Al Awadhi gave us the highlights from her memoir Woman in the Wilderness.

De Nederlandse Miriam Lancewood leeft sinds enkele jaren met haar man Peter in de wildernis van Nieuw-Zeeland. Je kent haar wellicht van Floortje aan het einde van de wereld en/of haar boek 'Mijn leven in de wildernis.' Ik interviewde Miriam tijdens mijn Nieuw-Zeeland reis over haar leven na Floortje, maar ook over de toekomst. Hoe gaan ze om met het feit dat Peter ouder wordt? Hoe ziet ze de toekomst voor zich? Waar leven ze van en wat betekent avontuur voor haar? Ook hebben we het over leven zonder werken, primitief leven en wandelen in Nieuw-Zeeland. Naast de opname schreef ik ook een blogpost over de ontmoeting, die lees je hier: https://www.we12travel.com/mijn-ontmoeting-met-miriam-lancewood-in-nieuw-zeeland/ Meer info: www.avontuurlijkevrouwen.nl www.instagram.com/avontuurlijkevrouwen

SOUND QUALITY DISCLAIMER: This interview was conducted over skype with a poor internet connection (thank you rural New Zealand).  This does not take away from the fact that the content will have you hooked, we promise!   Introducing to you a very extraordinary woman – Miriam Lancewood.  Nine years ago Miriam and her husband Peter decided to give up all of their worldly belongings and move into the New Zealand wilderness with nothing but a tent and bow and arrow. Together they wanted to learn how to hunt & survive in nature and discover what happens to the mind and body when you take away all comforts and live wildly amongst nature on earth.  They live simply in a tent or hut and survive by hunting wild animals, foraging edible plants and using minimal supplies.  This quote sums Miriam up perfectly: ‘My life is free, random and spontaneous. This in itself creates enormous energy and clarity in body and mind.’  This is not an episode to miss.  Art, Matilda & Miriam chat so beautifully about Miriam’s motivations to live in the wild; covering the effects on both the body and the mind.  The conversation covers what life looks like when you live without a clock or technology but instead live by light hours, in silence and with ones thoughts. Miriam talks about the skills she has had to learn and the confidence she has found within because of this.  Inspirational to say the least; Miriam’s story will have you wanting to pack your bags and head bush.   Brought to you by: Roar Collective Hosts: Art & Matilda Green Producer: Tess Novak Sound Technician: Matt Eller Music: Ricky Simmonds

01/06/2019: We spoke to Miriam Lancewood while we were in New Zealand for the Auckland Writers Festival about her extraordinary nomadic existence, detailed in her memoir Woman in the Wilderness: My Story of Survival, Love & Self-Discovery in New Zealand. She talks to us about what it’s like hunting wild animals, foraging for food, sleeping in a tent through all seasons, and when it is that she feels loneliest.

Billed as ‘the female Bear Grylls’, Dutch-born Miriam Lancewood quit modern comforts and the teaching profession eight years ago to embrace an off-grid, primitive life in the New Zealand wilds. She’s written about her experiences in Woman in the Wilderness. What began as a year-long experiment, alongside her Kiwi husband Peter, has turned into a fulfilling nomadic lifestyle: “It seems that the trees pull the burdens off your shoulders.” Jinty MacTavish will find out what it was like for Lancewood to swap vegetarianism for hunting, shampoo for dandruff-busting urine, and digital distractions for Nature’s peace. This show was broadcast on OAR 105.4FM Dunedin www.oar.org.nz

In this episode, we talk all about her life in the wilderness, how she copes with isolation and boredom, her thoughts on the modern world, walking 2000 kilometres across Europe, the importance of a good night's sleep, and a whole lot more. Miriam is a fascinating woman who has chosen to live a life that many of us might dream of, but few will ever do.If you're interested in learning more about Miriam, she wrote a book about her life in 2017, called Woman in the Wilderness. This episode is brought to you by Absolute Wilderness, delicious freeze-dried meals to fuel your next adventure, made locally in Nelson, New Zealand.

Miriam Lancewood spent six years in the New Zealand wilderness with her husband Peter, hiking, exploring, hunting, gathering and living out of a tent. Miriam is also the author of the book Woman in the Wilderness where she shares the tales of her epic six year untangling.
