Description

This summer Felix took part in one of the craziest "races" in the world. Driving from the U.K. all the way to Ulan-Ude in eastern Russia via Mongolia. It's called the Mongol Rally.
Every year, a few hundred people from around the world buy cheap cars in the U.K. and set off on the trip of a lifetime. And after listening to this, you may just be one of those people next year.
Going through daily grind tends to slowly sap the life out of you, and nothing counteracts the tedium like a BIG ASS ADVENTURE.
Felix shares some amazing stories:

Being momentarily held at gunpoint
Getting stuck in a river as the car slowly flooded
Finding ways to fix a car after a crash in Turkmenistan
Playing backgammon, and getting to know locals all over Central Asia
and so many more!

We go beyond fun stories to touch on how adventure can impact your life, and how much more ALIVE you feel when you bust out of your normal routine. 
As always, you can find pictures and links mentioned in the show notes at theworldwanderers.com
