My Octopus Teacher star Craig Foster - How to be Wild

A decade ago, living in a city and feeling exhausted and empty, Craig Foster decided to return to his birthplace—the Cape of Good Hope—and dive into the great African Sea forest each day. His daily oceanic adventures not only helped him “rewild”, but helped him come to see his own “amphibious soul” as a powerful metaphor for the human condition.  Now, in conversation with his close friend Kate Humble, he shares his insights into the wonder of the natural world. From understanding diverse species through the smallest details of their call, their tracks, and their habits, to learning how to reconnect with our most ancient common tongue—the language of wildlife—he reveals how we are all born wild, and that we have the power to reconnect with our innermost nature: nature itself.  Learn more about your ad choices.
