In this episode guest Harriet Gruen shares what it takes to go from novice cycle tourer to an ultra cycling record-breaker. In 2022 she set off from London to ride 10,000 km to Central Asia.  She'd barely ridden much at all and so she named the trip The Unlikely Adventure.Along the way she fell in love with cycling and by the time she returned back to London 5 months later, she turned her mind to  ultra-distance racing.  She's since lined up at events such as Dales Divide, Trans Pyrenees and Badlands, more recently she has et the fastest known female time on the Three Peaks by Bike Challenge, climbing Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon while cycling the 700 km between them.Follow Harriet via her instagram - @anunlikelyadventure and also her personal blog - An Unlikely AdventureCheck out Zorali for all your outdoor adventure needs!

Cet épisode est un peu différent des autres, par la nature même du business que nous abordons, par la personnalité de mon invité et par son chemin de vie.Il ne sera pas seulement question d'entrepreneuriat, mais aussi de quête, de lenteur, de sens. Car aujourd'hui, je vous emmène en voyage.Mon invité s'appelle Alexandre Le Beuan, fondateur de Chemins, une entreprise qui conçoit des séjours itinérants à vélo électrique dans le sud de la France. Mais réduire Chemins à un simple acteur du slow tourism serait passer à côté de l'essentiel. Derrière cette aventure, il y a un homme qui a passé plus de quinze ans en Asie, qui a fondé Shanti Travel, pionnier du voyage sur mesure en Inde et dans l'Himalaya, et qui a choisi, un jour, de ralentir pour mieux avancer.Nous commençons cette conversation par le parcours singulier d'Alexandre, fait d'expéditions en Himalaya, d'apprentissage du hindi et du tibétain, de passion pour la randonnée et d'un goût profond pour l'altérité. Il raconte comment ces expériences, loin d'un simple curriculum professionnel, ont forgé sa vision du voyage comme rencontre, transformation et humilité.Dans une deuxième partie, nous revenons sur l'aventure Shanti Travel, une success story née en 2005 à New Delhi avec 10 000 euros en poche et une idée audacieuse : créer du sur-mesure B2C dans un monde encore dominé par les tours opérateurs traditionnels. Alexandre y partage les clés de sa réussite : l'importance de la connaissance intime du terrain, de la relation directe avec le voyageur et de la cohérence entre ses valeurs personnelles et celles de son entreprise.La troisième partie explore la genèse de Chemins, née après une prise de conscience écologique et une réflexion sur la responsabilité du secteur du tourisme face au réchauffement climatique. Alexandre y explique comment il a imaginé un nouveau modèle de voyage : proche, lent et régénératif, accessible en train et à vélo électrique. Il décrit une expérience inclusive et immersive, qui reconnecte les voyageurs au territoire et à ceux qui le font vivre : producteurs, artisans, vignerons, lavandiculteurs…Enfin, nous terminons par la vision d'avenir de Chemins : un modèle hybride, associant des partenaires locaux à un pilotage centralisé, un développement raisonné vers l'Europe du Sud, une diversification vers les entreprises et les marchés nord-européens. Alexandre nous parle ici d'économie d'usage, de saisonnalité, de sobriété et de croissance maîtrisée — autant de notions qui redéfinissent ce que pourrait être le voyage de demain.Entre récit personnel et stratégie entrepreneuriale, cet épisode invite à prendre le temps. Le temps de comprendre, d'écouter et, pourquoi pas, de se remettre en route autrement.Hébergé par Ausha. Visitez ausha.co/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

In this episode of the 10Adventures podcast, we are joined by Cassandra Overby, writer, traveler, and author of Home Base Hiking Europe. Cassandra challenges the traditional “see everything” approach to travel and introduces a more meaningful, grounded model: choosing a single village or valley as your base and exploring through daily hikes. Cassandra shares how her philosophy of slow travel grew out of a “travel breakup” in her twenties and evolved into a new way of moving through Europe — one that prioritizes connection, culture, and authentic local life. She explains why small villages offer richer experiences than tourist hotspots and how travelers can blend hiking, culture, food, and community simply by slowing down. From the Dolomites to the Somme, the Piedmont to Provence, Cassandra walks through some of her favorite home-base regions across Europe — and the unique stories, landscapes, and local interactions that make them come alive. This episode is full of practical insights and deep reflections on how to travel better, notice more, and build real connections along the way.

Photographer and visual storyteller Ilan Sánchez captures more than moments — he captures meaning. Through analog film photography, street portraits, and honest connection, his work explores how slowing down helps us truly see people, not just pass by them. From Mexico City to Oaxaca, Ilan builds community through art that gives back instead of taking, documenting culture, identity, and everyday life with intention. Born and raised in Oaxaca, he offers a rare local perspective on how the city's sudden global spotlight — from mezcal to design and tourism — is reshaping its creative and cultural landscape.

When her van broke down in Crete, Anne Kress decided not to book a  flight to get back home to Germany. Instead, she grabbed her 20-year-old mountain bike and camping gear, then pedalled 3,300km home through 11 countries.Listen if: You love spontaneous adventures, dream about bikepacking the Balkans, or want proof that bike adventures can start with small, imperfect gear.The story in a nutshell: Anne was midway through a climbing trip in Crete when her camper van broke down in the middle of nowhere. With Easter shutdown looming, not wanting to take a flight home, and stranded in the what felt like the 'middle of nowhere', she decided to ride it her old mountain bike all the way back to Germany. Not via the “boring” coastal route, but off-road through the newly created Trans Dinarica route through the Balkans. All up she cycled over 3,300 km, with a hefty 63,000 meters of climbing as well. Key takeaways:Listen to your inner voice: The wild idea in your head might be the one that changes everything.Start with what you've got: You don't need a shiny gravel bike to take on an adventure.

På denne rejse arbejdede jeg desuden en del frem og tilbage, og jeg må sige, at man kan nå meget, når man har omkring 10 timer i et tog! Slow travel med tog til Heidelberg – og lidt om min konference og om SommerRO  Lyt med og få rejsetips i episoden herunder, hvor jeg fortæller jeg om: Fordelene ved togrejse – ikke mindst er prisen meget lav!

Same. In today's episode, we're talking about slowing the heck down, building a travel lifestyle that actually feeds you, and being real about how tough routines are when you're living on the road.I brought on two of my favorite humans, Candace and Logan—van lifers, creators, and truly intentional travelers who've been doing this since before it was cool (yep, pre-#VanLife). We dive into what slow travel really means (hint: it's not just staying longer), how they built their creative routines from the road, and how to avoid being “that” tourist when you post about tiny towns online.✨ This episode is a love letter to living slower, consuming less, and being deeply rooted in how we show up as travelers.We're covering:The actual rules of intentional travel—no, reallyWhy overposting can hurt local communities (and what to do instead)How to balance creating content without burning outOur favorite hippie routines (brushing your teeth with clay, anyone?)A brutally honest take on travel and routine while living in a vanThe books and tools that shaped how Logan & Candace travel today
