Microadventures: Local Discoveries for Great Escapes by Alastair Humphreys

adventurous funny hopeful informative lighthearted reflective medium-paced

3.0

This was a really interesting book and idea. A Microadventure is an adventure close to home. In our post COVID world this is kinda of an interesting thought process. Alastair shares how he started this and different stories about his adventures in the first half of the book. This book is very UK based so a lot of it seems hard to apply in the USA. There are some good general ideas though. I will also say as a mother and primary caregiver of children a lot of these we couldn't do as a family got safety reasons. I did appreciate the back half of the book and things you need for Microadventures. It's more than you think. Overall a good way to spark adventure into every day, but hard to replicate in the USA.
