A microadventure is an adventure that is close to home, cheap, simple, short, and yet very effective.

Alastair has written ten books about his adventures. He is highly regarded as a motivational keynote speaker for corporate events around the world. You can get in touch with Alastair here. He produces a free occasional newsletter with the highlights of the blog and important expedition news.
