Summary

I read Alastair's book, Microadventures and then had the immense pleasure of speaking with him for an hour and we've already made some changes around our home due to his influence. We're trying to cook and eat outside more. We're searching out new places to go. We're thinking differently about our time. Alastair is witty and endearing, and even more than that he'll remind you of what's out there and how the simplest of nature experiences will always be with us. We will definitely be reading his other books!!
