Benedict Allen, Explorer and The Quest for Adventure

by Jeremy Bassetti
Benedict Allen Explorer

Benedict Allen is my guest today. He is the author of several books, including most recently Explorer: The Quest for Adventure and the Great Unknown

I ask him about his urge to explore, and about what I poorly articulate as his “old school” mode of traveling the world. We chat about about making bonds while traveling, about homecomings, and about family.
