This week’s guests are Roseann & Jonathan Hanson who are, amongst many things, accomplished writers, photographers, artists, biologists, and explorers. They have spent 35 years taking on some epic overlanding expeditions all over the world. In fact, Jonathan has co-authored a book that many regard the ‘Bible of Expedition Travel’. They are also the founders of the highly respected Overlanding Expo and now the new upcoming Explorations Quarterly Magazine (which by the way, as a listener, you’ll get an exclusive discount with the code ‘Adventure’ once they launch. Join their waiting list here: https://www.exploringoverland.com/explorationquarterly


In this conversation, we talk about: 

  • Their work and relationship to the natural world, as conservationists & biologists. What it means to be a naturalist and why this work is important.  
  • Some good old-fashioned adventure stories, like the time they have to flee from a van load of bandits armed with AK47s. 
  • We also talk about creativity and mindset; and why it’s important to keep reading and exploring new ideas and crafts, and skills.
