A few of my favorite adventures: Riding 6,000km north from Vietnam’s hot and humid Mekong Delta in the south to the staggeringly high, mist covered mountain peaks along the Chinese border; camping on the sea ice to the northeast of Canada’s Baffin Island at 73°N and listening as pods of narwhal breathed on the surface nearby; staying at a monastery in Cambodia and forming lifelong friendships with young monks eager to practice English and show off their beautiful country and culture.
