David Overton joins Nick for a special on-the-trail episode of Adventure Habits, recorded while walking the Camino Inglés in Galicia, Spain.
From planning with a map to carrying something meaningful, taking life a little slower, staying practical on the trail, and letting go of a fixed outcome, David shares five habits that make adventure more rewarding.
Along the way, they talk Camino culture, the medieval town of Betanzos, water-carrying mishaps, and why the best part of a journey is often what you never planned for.
If you enjoy thoughtful conversations about adventure, walking, and making the most of the journey, like, subscribe, and share your own adventure habits in the comments.
