26: Following Where the Road Takes You w/ Dan Grec
Today on the show we have a guy who decided that his job as a software engineer wasn’t fulfilling his need for adventure in his life, packed up his car and drove to Alaska from his home in Canada. Once there, he discovered an untapped desired to keep exploring from the seat of an overlanding vehicle which kicked off a series of epic journeys from Alaska to Patagonia which he detailed in his book, “The Road Chose Me.” Dan Grec calls in from Zambia as he is working his way AROUND Africa. Yes, I said around. Not across. This journey so far has been almost 37k miles in his trusty off-road Jeep and he’s got many more 10s of thousands to go. Truly epic. In this episode we talk about the lessons he’s learned on the dusty, muddy, rocky, and beautiful roads he’s been travelling for the past few years and all the cultures he’s encountered along the way.
